"If you wish to renege on this task, you can still make the decision." Lord Jilon said to Weylyn as he strode up to her.
It was already dawn and it was time to leave the citadel, Weylyn had been out all night, taking a walk through the citadel she was about leaving behind.
There were many thoughts that burdened her heart but after the night had passed, Weylyn had found some peace and clarity.
Her doubts also flitted away and Weylyn now knew for certain this was the best decision she could make for herself.
Leaving the royal citadel would make a rise to fame impossible, but it was already okay if there was only one Kalver as the great Knight of the people known to the Empire.
For Weylyn, being a mediocre knight and protecting a single fortress, far away from the troubles of the citadel was already enough.
