Aah, you were at my side, all along.

My true mentor...

My guiding moonlight

:praisesun:

you grasp for the faintest glimmer of hope.
kind-hearted fool that you are.
you are blinded by the very light that guides you.
so you stumble,searching for answers....driven into madness,by the things you uncover.
and still you remember....what any sane person would rather forget.
you want to save everyone.
pitiful,really.
you can't even save yourself.
and the more you try to help.......the more you will lose.
whether you risk everything for glory...or offer all that you have left...with boundless compassion.
no one can foretell the consequences...of your good intentions.
i'll never understand what drives you.
is it your thirst for knowledge?
faithful duty?
petty revenge?
no matter, you shoulder a task far beyond yourself.
and through all your trials....
you realize...
....that you measure up to it after all.
and when even the gods despair...
...and shy away from their duty....
when the last fire fades....and the abyss grabs at your heart.
you hold tight the embers that burn your fingers.....and you face the end....unknowing,deceived, yet always sure of yourself.
