ObiefuneNotes

ObiefuneMemories

ObiefuneCreations

ObiefuneStories

Convictions:

• I'm not ready to make the Finest Sword yet.
• There are forces out there that I cannot yet comprehend.
• I can't outpower a Gifted Sword. The Ring showed me that with the Sealed sword.
• I swore to be a Troublemaker
  • and a Blue Falcon
  • and a member of the Pack.
• Mortality's weakness is our greatest strength.
• Hope and Despair form a circle-- both lead to ruin at each extreme. Balance is the key.
• I am humbled by Nahuel's sacrifice.

Motivations:

• I will do all I can to usher in the Golden Age.
• I need to become a better rounded person.
• Learn more about balance and how to defy it. $
• Learn about the Litany items. $
• Take responsibility for my actions. $
• I care for and fear the Litany items. $

Nahuel's path:

• I must enumerate my weaknesses.
  • I am selfish.
  • I am vain and proud.
  • I am ignorant, sometimes delusional.
  • I am narrowminded.
  • I am inconsiderate of what others want and need.
  • I do not understand love, or sacrifice
• I must face my weaknesses, turn them into strengths
• I must enumerate what I don't know
  • What is the Golden Age?
  • How can I ease the suffering of mortality?
  • Why is the Greatest Sword going to defy balance?
  • Why a sword at all? $
  • What is the nature of sacrifice? $
• I must turn these unknowns into opportunities.

Shames:

• I am ashamed of the time I've wasted chasing my goal.
• I am ashamed that I let nasty propaganda get dropped on the islanders for the sake of expediency.
• I have killed a man, and that act can never be undone.
• I lost myself in my quest.
• My conceit nearly lead to Nahuel and Ateg's deaths.

Relationships:

• Davan - He walks a hard path, one that has taken him to the edge of his limits and broken him. I hope he can find the strength to emerge anew, reforged. $
• Isidore - Hard to read. Lost, but has the potential to grow. His curse has trapped him emotionally-- he can never set down roots.
• Royce - He has a strong heart. Good natured. He is discovering himself.
• Gerrick - Gerrick is redeeming himself in his eyes. He can grow into the person his people need.
• Ateg - I am partially responsible for his father's death and his rebirth. Only we have any comprehension of what Nahuel did, and that binds us. Ateg is wiser than I will ever be.
• Kentosane - We did not care for you as a friend should, Kentosane.
• Brothers - I have ignored my family for too long.
  • Din - Din is a good man, if abrupt. He is loyal and takes his responsibilities seriously.
• Nahuel - I owe him my life. He taught me many things, but most importantly humility and perspective. He is a better person than I can conceive.
• Auk - Good natured and good humored, an ideal traveling companion
• Oz - wise, but fundamentally wounded. I could feel his shame of his desperation and his actions. I know his mind, then. $
