If you read this Roran then this was a compliment. Enjoy it.

Sometimes all we need to do is watch our own reflection.
Thank you for allowing me that.

You ask what the biggest change in our lives was. And how it affected us.
If one had asked, anything before four months ago, I'd have said the Burning of Stormwall, during the Gyre War. Were it not for that, I doubt I'd have been nearly so passionate about being a healer, and certainly wouldn't have my life's goals, as they are. Having one's home burn around you, and choking on the smoke, while people die to evil things just beyond the walls leaves an impression.
Now? I know the real change happened when I came to Arx.
The Burning was a direction. Arx was a change. Father told me more than once that Arx would chew me up. And it has, but not as he thought.
I have been reinvented as Lenne a half dozen times. Chewed up, sometimes, but just into a different, better shape.
I didn't have friends, to speak of, in Stormwall.
Now I have a host of people I trust with my life. And who trust me with the same.
I didn't think I would ever fall in love, in Stormwall.
Now I have. Head over heels. More than once.
I didn't have a clue, in Stormwall.
I suppose I still barely have more, in the grand scheme of things, but I do feel like quite an accomplished scholar, some days. Increasingly more days, even. People who know me are better armed with knowledge, for my presence.
I didn't do worthwhile things, in Stormwall.
I dreamed. But here I actually do the things I dreamed of. Here, I have gone out on adventures. I've seen incredible things. I've faced battles. I've uncovered ancient mysteries. I've saved lives.
I didn't trust myself, or believe in myself, in Stormwall.
Given all the rest, above? For once, I begin to think that maybe Lenne is worthwhile. That maybe my reach might not exceed my grasp. I dislike arrogance. But maybe a bit of pride is something I'll allow myself.
I ever keep Lagoma's teachings, in mind. Change is inevitable. Change for the better, growth, is what we must ever strive for. Arx hasn't just changed things for me. It has changed the nature of change. It has let me grow. It has burned away some of the dross, and left something better, behind. Warm hope springs, where I coldly despaired before.

But thank you for your kind words and thoughtful advice.
I'm not one who usually seeks out the faith to talk, but it was a good conversation about a heavy subject.
Needless to say, my head is high and life goes on.
As always, things change.

Like for my clan, the past year. There has been enough change I would think.
But, I'm more than aware that there is more to come.
Change occurs too much, it can drive a person mad. It can, and will, break you.

I decided to embrace change. I have sent my constant companion off for a day of adventures with Archlector Roran. It has been a strange feeling, not having my companion at my side. But in an effort to embrace change and try something new, I am very glad I accepted his challenge.
I encourage you to do the same. There is something amusing to me about the thought of Archlector Roran embracing his own moment of change in becoming a temporary zoo-keeper.

I am old enough to have life I regret wasting. The river is fearful. But to stand on the shore and watch it pass is to disappear from your own life.
