Which is more important: your desire or your life?

Your life's work, uniting warring kingdoms under a banner of peace and prosperity. Your one true love, a blind musician whose entire family was slaughtered by mercenaries. Your integrity, healing your name from the blood and bruises of a violent, reckless youth. Your freedom, forbidden to you by your iron-clad place in a privileged, insulated world.

You can never have both.
