10.) I didn’t really have much education back in Ealdor, so I mostly learned to write from my mother and Will (he was older and had learned before me). My mother has rather neat writing while Will..um, it’s hard to read, to put it kindly. I ended up getting a mix of that. I tend to write in a sloppy kind of cursive-y script. When I focus, I can write very nicely, but most of the time, it turns out looking a bit rushed.
16.) I have many fears, but perhaps the most pressing, is that of isolation. I fear that one day, I’ll be left alone, all of my friends either having left me or dead. I draw my strength from my loved ones, so I couldn’t possibly imagine being without them. My second greatest fear is my own magic. I’ve seen what magic is capable of and I never wish for my own magic to be used in such a way. Growing up the way I did, I’d always heard of how magic corrupts, how it is inherently evil. And while I know this to be false and just the talk of fearful people, sometimes I still worry.
19.) So many things make me happy. Helping people out, for one. Walking around the citadel and watching the many bustling citizens, bickering with Arthur, going to the tavern with the knights, going on hunts with Arthur so that I can see more of the world. Yes, I think going out of Camelot with Arthur– and the knights, usually– is one of my favorites. There’s just something so peaceful about sitting in the woods, surrounded by nature with good people, the warmth, and the quiet sound of crackling fire around you.
20.) Well, this is a big one, isn’t it? I’ve often thought about this question, actually, when I think of my own apparent immortality. I don’t think we’re genuinely meant to have a specific answer to this. I think we’re just meant to live how we are and do our best to make the most of it, not just for ourselves, but for others. What’s the point in living if the whole time you’re trying to figure out why you are doing it? To me, it sort of defeats the purpose.
