Gosh, I feel a bit exposed now, like I've bared my soul. I don't know, I don't really mind . . it's my soul to bare after all . . but I did get rather serious here. I feel I ought to share something light as a counter.
Rapskal. Hehe! I find his beginnings so darling! He's such a light-hearted soul. In Fool's Quest and Assassin's Fate he's soooooooo overly serious! I get where he was coming from, defending the dragons, but . . even the other Elderlings thought him super serious and overly confrontational! But in Dragon's Keeper he's so sweet and smiling and light-heartedly good-natured. You can't help but love him here. And the way he defends young Heeby. I love it. I love how open his heart is--he just wants to find the good in others! I recall it didn't take him too long to befriend Fitz when he realised he had him pegged wrong. When he knew he could trust him, he totally trusted him and entrusted the silver to him. I wish he could have known Fitz much longer. They would have been such good friends I think.

Discover where you are now, and go on from there, making the best of things. Accept your life, and you might survive it. If you hold back from it, insisting this is not your life, not where you are meant to be, life will pass you by. You may not die from such foolishness, but you might as well be dead for all the good your life will do you or anyone else. - Vivacia to Wintrow, The Mad Ship
