Elidh was silent upon their return journey. In truth, she was still thinking about Gina's words. 'If you so insistent in using violence to solve your problems, take care it does not spiral out of your control.' Today felt like a victory in a few ways, but ultimately it was another failure. Yesterday, her bloodlust caused her to kill an enemy who should have been captured alive. Today, her wholly peaceful approach meant that a malicious, evil wizard got away, and was out their somewhere. If she'd have killed him instead of kicking him, that wouldn't be a problem. She was beginning to realise that today's approach wasn't addressing her problem at all. She needed to find a middle ground where she could be stable and reasonable. Where she wouldn't be scared to go too far, and wouldn't have to limit her behaviour or actions out of this fear, putting herself at a disadvantage in the process. This was ignoring her real issues. Running away from them, even.

Other people managed to give their all in battle without giving in to rage and the urge to kill. Why couldn't she?

[color=9B1436]"Thank you for watching over me and keeping me in check, Bast,"[/color] she spoke after a while of walking in silence, [color=9B1436]"But I don't think I'll be totally abstaining from violence again. That town made me realise that I am a warrior. I need to learn to stay honourable and keep my emotions in check, but also not forget or ignore that I was raised to fight, and I'm proud of that. I need to learn to walk the middle ground."[/color]

[color=edd902]"Well,"[/color] Rebecca answered, looking over to Yang. [color=edd902]"I don't think I ever had much of a choice. I was raised in Pravar, and my healing abilities set me on this path. I gained enough followers to start my own Chuch, dedicated to an often overlooked goddess of Order lore. I preached unconditional love and acceptance, but unfortunately that also applied to women and monsters, which goes against many other, more powerful Order doctrines. I would not yield my beliefs, so I was branded a traitor and was forced to flee. My church now has no followers, but I am hoping to reinvigorate it as part of this Guild, which I joined the moment I caught wind of the rumours."[/color]

Upon Returning to the Guild, Rebecca sat down but did not eat until she had answered the questions directed at her, both from Bart and Maria. [color=edd902]"The quest went smoothly thanks to the timely assistance of Yang, and of Feast and Shatter. Without them, Magnus and I may not have been successful in free the resistance leader. Indeed, we may not have returned at all."[/color]
