I am myself
I am a Herald
I am strong
But not always
was it this way
I was weak
Unsure
I had no faith
for I believed no tin my Hold
I had no trust
for my family betrayed me
I had only Rolan
my Companion
then Jadus
brought my confidence back
then I was a Herald
I faced my Gift
and won
I found love
Kestra and Ashke
and "my greatest joy was preceded
by my greatest sorrow"
But it brought me strength
When I lost my te'sorthene
and truly became
a Herald
Queen's Own
me, Talia
