I have been having a real hard time thinking of a natural-as-possible way to separate mc from his companion but couldn't.
To sum up, the mc is pretty weak and timid. The other characters had to support him from the shadow. They didn't really dare to push him to do anything big because he was just that incompetent and slow to improve.
I want to put him into a strange place without his allies and let him do thing to either live and grow or fail and die, else this story will stay like that forever. However, I couldn't find out a good way to separate him. The other support characters knew that somebody else will be getting to him due to his relation to them. They kept a very tight leash on the mc. It would be unnatural if the mc could stray away from them.
My setting does have an irregular phenomenon called rift which is a portal to a different place. However, I have no idea how to push him through. The other characters will not let him anywhere near a rift. They have access orbital observatory to keep track of him. There is always someone very competent besides the mc to fence off kidnappers and assassins or to pull him out of an ambush.
The only thing I can think of is a sudden large opening of a cluster of rifts on the surface of the planet and many strong monsters come through which forces the orbital defense force to glass the vicinity of the rifts despite it being a major residential area. This can lead to the mc having no other choice but to run through a rift to avoid the bombardment. However, whoever is in charge of the mc at that time will definitely come together with the mc through the rift. That, I do not want. I want complete isolation of him from those he knew and was familiar with.
