I am getting madder with every word she says...until I finally cut her explanation off. "Ugh...Why now? Why come to mold me into a hero NOW? My life has been hell...and NOW YOU COME?! I'VE HAD TO LIVE WITH AMNESIA,NEVER HAVING ANYONE WHO I COULD TRUST!......there was no shoulder to cry on for me when the entire village I had settled in was SLAUGHTERED,including the girl I was going to marry...no one to be beside me as I descended into theivery...no one to tell me who I even was...I don't even know my own name,I adopted Shaden as my name because of how I was called "The Thieving Shade"...now you've come...to see a broken shell of a man,barely clinging to sanity...you can tell your GOD that I'm not interested in becoming a hero,and that the ONLY WAY that I'll fight as a hero is if I can have my past back...I'm NOT a hero...my life has pretty much convinced me of that." I walk over to her. "Anything to say to that?"

A tinge of sadness enters her gaze as she contemplates...something...and reaches for a locket hanging out of a satchel at her side. "I don't have anything to say to that,rather,I have something to give you...it's not much,but it's a piece of your past...and that seems important to you. Here." She tosses me the locket,and I...recognize the symbol etched into the metal...Ugh...why can't I remember! I open the locket,and it ALL comes flooding back to me. My parents were warriors,who went out on a mission,guarding a magical artifact,and never came back...my memory was locked away due to the trauma of being...suddenly alone...I stand up,walk over to her,and say,all the while clutching the locket, "I accept your offer...I will be a hero,I will make new memories...the past isn't as important as the future..."I bow to her,and begin my training into a hero.
