Role

Chapter 1

Azidreth stood on the ledge, glancing down at the home he had come to love,
at the family he had found.

A voice that sounds like a soft fire says 'and do you believe you could
uphold these duties?'

Aarn says 'Ya best not have ta think 'bout dat one. I seen yer fightin'.'

Azidreth glanced down at his hands, wrinkled and crooked with age. He felt
the cold wind biting into him has it never had in his youth. He closed his
eyes against the doubt, and a memory drifted into his consciousness.

Cytherea says softly 'By feelings, and trust.'

Cytherea says softly 'I believe you would make a good Captain.'

Renewed by the faith of his Sister and dearest friend, Azidreth reopened his
eyes. He glanced at Aarn and the Skyborn, feeling only their curiousity and
honest trust of his coming answer.

Azidreth squared his shoulders and said, 'The flame lies within the heart,
not the body.'
