I've been away from home for five years now, in that time plenty of people have come and gone back to their own home worlds. It's not the same, but I met friends here that I knew who have never met me.
I told them about it. Because they deserve to know that even if I'm a stranger to them, one of them was my best friend for several years.
The relationship isn't nearly the same as it was before, everyone is different. Things are going to be different, but as long as you don't expect it to be the same when you go into it there's no reason it might not happen in another way.
If you're lucky, a better way.
[Meeting Rhode in Attollo after knowing her in Purg was not exactly how he would have liked that to go down, but... Lyle was a pleasant surprise from the man he knew before. It was strange to think that over time he might actually become better friends with him than he even was with his brother before.]
The only thing you can do is be honest and go into it without expectations.
