Life and the path of evolution share many similarities.
They both offered choices, both simple and complex, and each choice had a series of consequences that affected subsequent options.
Naturally, deep down, everyone wanted more good and easy choices and as few difficult ones as possible.
At the same time, everyone felt a sense of excitement and a desire to find out what lay behind the most difficult choices. What would happen to them and their lives if they only went through the most difficult trials?
Well, not all of Adam's choices were the most dangerous and difficult. Sometimes it was beyond his control, but when he was presented with the opportunity to gain something valuable and risky, he simply couldn't pass it up.
That's why he chose the third star, even though he knew it would be a difficult test for him.
But maybe it was the only right choice?
As Damien said, every star at the Path Construct could be the last.
