He walked down the corridor, lined with his soldiers, who looked at him with love, with awe, with trust. Except Bean, who looked at him with anguish. Ender Wiggin was not larger than life, Bean knew. He was exactly life-sized, and so his larger-than-life burden was too much for him. And yet he was bearing it. So far.

As Ender Wiggin moves down the corridor, he is surrounded by his soldiers, who view him with admiration and unwavering loyalty. However, among them is Bean, who observes Ender with a sense of deep concern. This contrast highlights Bean's awareness of the weighty responsibilities Ender carries, which are amplified by the expectations placed upon him by others.

Bean recognizes that Ender's significance is not due to an exaggerated persona; rather, he embodies the reality of their situation perfectly. Yet, despite the immense pressure of his role, Ender continues to face these challenges with resilience. For now, he manages to handle the burdens he bears, but the struggle is palpable.
