Let me tell you the story of Bob.

There's a man named Bob, and Bob has a simple, profound love for one thing: killing goblins. It’s not just a job or a hobby; it’s the core of who he is. So when it came time for him to find his place in the world, he didn’t dream of becoming the town baker or the blacksmith. His path was clear. He got a job killing goblins.

And because he loved it, he became the best at it. He found new ways to do it, better ways. His focus was singular and his purpose, absolute.

But here’s the interesting part. Bob’s life didn’t shrink into that one purpose; it expanded from it. His solid reputation as the town’s premier goblin slayer became a foundation. He started helping the town fortify its walls—to better manage goblin threats. He mentored new adventurers, passing on his craft. He invested his earnings in the local tavern, creating a place where stories of their collective victories could be shared and celebrated.

He was building a community, engaging with his world in new and complex ways, but he did it all from the unshakable center of his identity. Every new skill, every relationship, every contribution was an extension of his core purpose. He was, and always would be, Bob... the man who loves killing goblins.
