Tempered Rage

"We are only haunted by the things we refuse to accept" - Bridgett Devoue Nikolai gave a quick nod in response. "Right now. Where's the nearest shrine? Do I need to bring an offering or something?" Each word coming out sharper then the last , the young man's anger boiling under his skin like rolling lava. Even standing still just to speak was making it worse. He needed to act, not chit chat. He needed to Ascend now. Nikolai knew that many would consider this decision a rash one built off of anger and rebellion. And it was on some level. However the Accepted wasn't that impulsive. He had debated this choice, quickly, but still debated. And Ascending was what he wanted. Not just to spite his father, not just to support his mother, but for himself. He wanted this. nikolai "Resilience is born even when we feel like we are dying" - Alex Elle
