That. . . is a tale I would prefer not to recount.

[At least not yet.]

It was when I was a child. Suffice to say, as the heir to my House, I grew up with a great many expectations on my shoulders. I didn't always know how to live with them.

[ She nods—that's clear enough. ]

If one burdens a child with responsibility, they should at least teach them how to manage it.

[ Her voice turns a bit stricter, harder, though it quickly goes back to its casual lilt. ]

—I'm sorry, I must just be bringing you more pain with my questions.

[bonetiddies]

If you are, you're only helping me better achieve my task.

[It's fine, though.]

. . . Shall I do the same for you? Despair said many of us don't know why we're chosen for their team, but I don't get the sense that's the case.

[ She considers for a moment; Luminiera seems to float near her by instinct, immediately snuggling into her arms. ]

I've spent the better part of the last six years waiting for someone. Someone I adored more than the world itself, and who I longed for more than the sun each morning.

[ She's not sure it's something she should share openly—best to keep her heart closed in a place like this—but considering the conversation thus far, she thinks Harrow would at least understand. ]

Sufficed to say, I think both of us know what despair feels like.

[bonetiddies]

[She does understand, and she also understands Vira's reluctance to share further; she doesn't push her any.]

I'm sorry. I hope you'll find what you need in this place.

[chevaleros]

Thank you. I am happy these days, but I do consider myself versed enough in despair to succeed.

[ Maybe their experiences will give them a leg-up. ]

I think if we work together, we could do quite well here. Not that I hope to bring you misery, but I invite you to call upon me when you need it. To be frank, I'd rather see you to success than many of the others here.

[ looks at cheese crimes ]

[bonetiddies]

Likewise. I'm certain we'll be able to help one another.

[Vira is. . . a very easy to like person, compared to some of these weirdos.]
