That was surprisingly beautiful and touching. The story of a man obsessed with work and then obsessed with being a hero to the point of neglecting his family. He goes on one last mission and time passes quickly on Earth while he's gone, so he returns after a few hours to see 18 years have passed and his wife and son are ruined without him. He grapples with that guilt and loss by drowning himself in work and finally recognizes there's no way to fix it, he admits his mistakes, and is finally there for his son as he dies. A story that's been told before, but beautifully done and well integrated into the universe. 

I don't totally understand how this ties into the rest of the universe. Obviously he discovers the paraverse and gets his power from there. There's some scenes like the cabin in the swamp, that are used in the place the heroes are hidden.
