To the void:
I really stopped caring about how the MC monologues sadly to himself, how he just looks away for a second and suddenly his friends are dead / super old and fragile, oh woe be he, the immortal...
Just....Get over yourself, man. Stop travelling for 20 years by foot, if you care so much. Invest in proper transportation, get medicine to stop your motion sickness, or stop giving a shit about how you're restricted to travelling 20~30 km per day, because you're stuck walking on-foot.
Get a mount dragon, a horse, invent shock absrobers, do something, anything, but just stop bitching at how "because I travel so much, the people I know die off....Oh I am so sad..."
Stop it. It genuinely just comes across as a man with heavy ADHD / autism, who is so self-absorbed by his own hobbies, that he's SHOCKED when people around him are unhappy with their relationship (but to him it seems fine, right? Until it isn't OK, and then he doesn't understand why his relationships fall apart.)
