-
An endless bounty of food.
-
And a proper home to keep you warm on coldest night.
-
Perhaps even a child of our own upon a day...
-
Yet I have not had the strength to provide you with any of this.
-
Your strength saw me from the mines.
-
Guided me from the shadows, returning life to faded shell.
-
A life stained with blood and battle.
-
My path has been chosen.
-
Not by the fates.
-
Not by the gods themselves.
-
I choose to walk by your side,
-
in this life and the one that follows.
