Date: Coldeven 1, Year 576
It feels like a lifetime ago, yet it was not so long since I first arrived in Frosthaven, a wide-eyed young woman, brimming with idealism and a thirst for knowledge. Selvara's embrace was my sanctuary, her teachings my guiding star. The temple became my refuge, a haven of peace amidst the bustling city. The sick and injured, those on the precipice of despair, became my family. I poured my heart and soul into healing them, into serving my community, driven by a deep-seated desire to make a difference.
I remember the initial fear vividly, the city a cacophony of sights and sounds, a whirlwind of activity that threatened to overwhelm me. I felt insignificant, a solitary drop in the vast ocean of humanity. But I learned to navigate the currents, to find my own rhythm within this vibrant tapestry of cultures and personalities.
Challenges, of course, have inevitably arisen. The recent attacks... the desecration of our sacred space... those were dark times, times that tested the very foundations of our faith. Yet, even in the face of such darkness, I found strength in the support of my fellow clerics. We stood together, healing the wounded, comforting the bereaved, and striving to restore a sense of peace and order to our city.
Through these trials, I have grown. I have learned the importance of resilience, of compassion in the face of suffering, and the enduring power of faith. I have learned that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope, a flicker of light that can illuminate the path forward.
Looking ahead, I know that challenges will continue to arise. But I am ready. I am prepared. Guided by the light of Selvara, I will continue to serve, to heal, and to protect this city, ensuring that hope and compassion prevail.
