[ktiseos]

And mayhap lacking in the requisite professionalism.

[guestservices]

Maybe. Well, it takes all types to run a team, I guess.

[ktiseos]

I suppose so, yes.

Is it a job that you find you enjoy, or one that is simply a job?

[guestservices]

I don't know if I see work as something to enjoy, exactly.

[ktiseos]

Duty and nothing but duty? Or not something quite so lofty as that, either.

[guestservices]

Work is a means of getting by, I guess.

[ktiseos]

Do you not have work that you would desire to do?

[guestservices]

I can't think of anything in particular.

[ktiseos]

...nothing at all?

Then what would you desire to do, if it does not involve your work?

[guestservices]

[silence.]

[ktiseos]

You do not know, or you are unwilling to say?

[guestservices]

It's not something I've thought about.

[ktiseos]

-not at all? Then do you only 'get by', as you put it?

[guestservices]

Is that so unusual?

[ktiseos]

In my estimation, yes. Though I understand my people are somewhat dissimilar from others, in all having our individual purposes.

[guestservices]

... Some people are born with purposes, and some aren't. All depends on the kind of being you are or where you're from, I suppose.

But I'm not what you'd call an ambitious person.

[ktiseos]

I would prefer to think all are still born with purpose, and others simply do not focus upon finding it.

[guestservices]

[a hum]

Are you thinking of destiny assigned from birth?

[ktiseos]

Not necessarily.

Purpose may still be something found, at times. There is a place for all within the world, and while they may need to seek it, it shall still be there. Mayhap they were not born for a given role, but find themselves suited to fill it when they are needed, and find purpose in a new duty in that manner.

[guestservices]

... I suppose that's not a bad way to think about it. I don't care for the idea of roles decided at birth... but it's nice to think everyone has a reason to exist.

[ktiseos]

I prefer to believe that they do. Otherwise, the star would not grant us life.

[guestservices]

Your planet is what grants you life?

[ktiseos]

That is likely the easiest way to describe it, yes. Souls are born from and eventually return to the flow of aether throughout our world.

[guestservices]

Is your world not ruled by gods, in that case?

[ktiseos]

Not at all. This is a fully natural process; we have no gods.
