Role

Chapter 1

Having been asked by two different villagers now about the defender path,
Yuyuya is reminded of his shame. He cannot be a defender. If he were able, he would
not be here in the first place. His people are naturally inclined to tend, to nurture,
to heal. Like all other children he was introduced to this early on. But he failed.
Miserably. Which is why he was then put, like the few other failures, into
the warrior training. It is not something desired by any, or at least most, of his
people. Respected, yes. Understood as necessary, sure. But it is what one does if
one cannot do the natural thing, which is create life and enhance it.
Unless incredibly pressed, and even then with great difficulty, Yuyuya will not discuss
this part of his past. At least not until great trust is felt with whoever asks, or
of course if someone far above him such as a god requires. But he would do almost
anything to avoid that recitation.
