In the one missionary there are many. I am not talking about the different "I's" a missionary could have but the many real expressions of a missionary.
There is the missionary in writing, the missionary in giving a class, the missionary featuring in the internal (dreams etc.) experiences of others, the missionary all by him or herself, the missionary in the practice of Alchemy, the missionary at home, the missionary with friends, the missionary starting a new mission in a foreign country, a missionary running a retreat, a missionary in charge of his or her group, the missionary in a retreat, the missionary with other missionaries etc.
We don't really know a missionary until we know them in a few of these different aspects.
Knowing a missionary from what they write for example creates an image in the mind of the reader about the missionary but they may indeed be different in the other aspects of their lives. So really the best idea is to put these images together to form a unified image.
