Role

Chapter 1

Alright class, now, we've spent a lot of time talking about Erendinia and how she
grew, the highlights of her life, some of her accomplishments. But that's not a
complete picture, is it? Who can tell me of some of the troubles she had, something
that was difficult or painful? Yes, Lissensilel? "Well, there was the time she killed
that assassin or something, what was his name? Zankarol? Zikrolel?" "Zanarlok?" "Yes,
that's it!. Anyway, she walked out of the Fortress and saw her brother Gundisalv
fighting him, and just as she arrived Zanarlok broke Gundisalv's wrist! So, Erendinia
engaged and protected Gundisalv, and Zanarlok fell. But it turns out it was a huge
mistake, and Zanarlok hadn't done anything wrong. Erendinia was very sad and apologized
profusely to Zanarlok. But that wasn't the worst part of it all!" Oh, what was?
"Well, Cyruil, maybe the one she looked up to the most, not only questioned what
happened, which surely was the right thing to do, but then wouldn't listen to her, and
then even when he finally did, he threatened to kick her out of the Fortress! She
had proteced her brother in what looked to anyone like a fight to the death, and for
that she was treated like a crimnal by Cyruil. Corsix, also, was less than undertanding,
though he at least seemed to get it after much time. But Cyruil, well, Erendinia never
felt the same way about him again. She couldn't believe he would so quickly just jump
against her and think as he did. It's said that she changed how she spoke to him, even."
Yes, that's a good example. She was a bit hardened after that, not quite as sweet as
she'd been before. It's one thing to be caused pain by the wicked ones you hunt, but
it's much worse when it feels like a betrayal by one you respect and admire. Remember
that, children. Always.
