Heavy Shadow (Part 4)

"Because at the time Leria wanted to be like me when she grows up. Now she wants to be like Lith." Senton clenched his hands in fury, but it was soon overcome by despair. "She wants to go to the White Griffon and become a mage."

"That's idiotic!" The old blacksmith blurted out, drawing Raaz's and Kamila's reproachful gazes. "I mean, sure, Leria may not become a blacksmith. Heck, she might even not be fully human if she chooses a different life force.

"Yet that doesn't make her one bit less your daughter or my granddaughter. It's not the profession that makes the person but the values they live for. I'm proud of what you have become, Senton, but not because you've taken up the family business.

"I'm proud of you because you are a good man and a good father. Because you live an honest life and know the importance of hard work. If you pass these values upon Leria, she'll be like you even if she decides to become a politician."
