The Formidables: Searching for the Fire Within

It's strange to come back to this, a feeling of raw independence. I have to get used to relying on myself again... This state of being alone has two faces for me, it makes me feel powerful, yet it is also unnerving, especially in this strange land...

I never realized until now just how long it has been since I felt formidable...

I now remember the downside of this freedom. You have no one to go to for your problems... No one to rely upon completely anymore... No one to watch your back... No one to push you, to be motivated by. You constantly have to find the drive to succeed, the fire within.

I've got to find my wind soon. Circumstance is pushing me towards it, I just have to open myself to it now.
