I could... find some way to free them. But for all I know it's a culturally ingrained institution going back generations. It could take centuries to dismantle. Could I handle spending that kind of time? Should I? Maybe someday this world will grow wiser on its own. I don't know. It's easier on earth, knowing that the wars, the slavery, the injustices will all come to an end in time. But this world... I can't know anything for certain.
... Interfering with other worlds is like walking a tightrope. It's easy for me to just assume I know best, to impose. Sometimes there's a window where I can improve things. Like Nova Sanctum. I knew that the Cybermen never regained the offensive during the last centuries of the war. So I knew I had to do something. It was quick. It was simple. And it made a lot of people happy. Then I go to earth, 19th century, the plantations. I know they will exist for decades more. Even if I could do something...
... I'm sorry. I'm blathering.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?It's hard to stay brave even when the outcome seems certain. You can check that parachute until there's no chance of it failing, but you still hesitate at the jump.
In my universe, I've got grounding points. Things I know, things I can rely on. Even something as basic as the laws of physics. But this place... it's going to take a while for my compass to reset.

Do you think Mike is okay? He wasn't with us when we left, but the same thing happened before and he and Fen and Kark... I don't know where he is.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-Hasn't noticed Fen yet-
...I thought maybe I could help them, since... since I knew what it's like. And — and I knew what I wanted to hear, when... so I tried saying that.
They didn't want to talk to me at all, though.
...It turns out they didn't even need me, though. Fen just... got better. It was Aven, probably. He made her better, like I was supposed to be. And... I don't know about Mike, but if Aven talked to him, he'd be better too.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistI know. Nothing I did could have helped either. Not with the time we had.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?... Yes. But we can't let those kind of regrets drag us down. We stumble sometimes, but we have to pick up the pieces and try to do better.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Ugh...this fruit isn't good.
(Millia Rage looks at the fruit in her hand and puts it down, and she has a portion of her hair transform into a shape resembling said fruit, for practice and a little bit of kicks)
So....your "Stand" that I've heard about. Care to tell me more?

"Shake the dust." - Anis MojganiYou always can. Always. It's never easy to push your limits. But you can't let that scare you off.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Kakyoin: You took the words right out of my mouth. The fruit here's terrible... You mean Hierophant Green, right? Hierophant Green lets me see things up to 20 meters in distance. It also can unravel itself into an electric web and shoot emeralds out of its palms as an all-round attack.
