Scariest:Â The day Eol took him from his mother and drug him through Nan Elmoth to leave him in the forest to die.
Nolya strives for perfection in all he does. Pretending and performing perfection in order to avoid shame and judgement. This is not actually self-improvement. Nolya seeks approval from others. By presenting a âperfectedâ image, Nolya believes he is hiding his insecurities and fears from the world around him.
When he is made to feel vulnerable, he backs out, pretends he doesnât care, or simply pretends it is not happening at all. Hiding out, avoiding, procrastination, rationalizing, blaming, and lying, all of which involves more energy the facing the problem. The energy he spends avoiding his vulnerabilities is greater than what he would spend if he simply faced and dealt with his insecurities and vulnerabilities.
