Because not every person -is- an adventurer or a traveler. To bring in real world experiences, I've been out of the state of California perhaps 5 times my entire life. 5. My brother's graduation from Pharmacy School, my first FIRST Robotics competition, a visit to texas and 2 trips to Taiwan when I was 3 and 8 respectively. Going to Vegas for FanFest would be the 6th time I'd be out of state, 2nd time in Vegas.
In-game that means Kage has actually traveled a lot more than I have -and- he was pretty much duty bound to do so when he had actually traveled.
It's up to the RPers to change it up which is why it's commendable when they do say "Man I'm going to make some RP in this area, I don't care that there's no one here to RP with. I'll just make RP that draws them here in the first place."
ICly and OOCly. I have no interest in Limsa or Gridania. At all. They look pretty and that's about it for me. I only go there because I have X quest to do or needs to be turned in or gathered. Kage goes to those places because he has to or he wants to enjoy his fun with others. Either to visit someone or to find them, but he's not willing nor is he interested in those places in particular. Same with the time he ended up at the-not-stone-vigil-but-where-svara-is. He only went there because Salem was there. He went to Costa or some other place in Limsa because of Nat's... thing. He'd be just as fine being in Ul'dah with his group of friends or taking a breach on a beach with his friends but he's not going to be the one to initiate those things unless he made a promise... to visit.
