Can't believe I'm doing this. I'm NOT supposed to BE here...
The way I grew up whispered 'change' to me, Greylion. I'm no hero--not by any stretch of the imagination, but I've always wanted to be one.
Or learn how to become one.
But if you mean that moment when I knew I had to get involved--to stretch beyond what I'd experienced up to that point...it would have been that meeting with the Iskari High Council. Looking around at all their faces--the moment after the High Elder offered my life back to me.
It was right then, knowing that these people were willing to let me go and suffer the consequences for making bad choices up to that point. To have some basic idea of what kind of trouble these people were in--especially after what happened to Kyliene--and I was the one holding their 'weapon'.
I couldn't just want away. It...was wrong.
But the other side of me--the part that wanted to barf on the floor--was knowing I didn't have a clue how to fight.
Goodness Greylion, I have an anxiety attack when I get the wrong food at a restaurant, because I don't want to have the confrontation to ask thr waitress to take it back and fix it. Which meant I would have to be trained.
Yeah, big changes.
You can't let people suffer when you have the option to do something about it. That would just make me evil.
...and there are a lot of things you could call me and probably be right, but 'evil' isn't one of them.
