... Tell me about her?

[ravenry]

She was very patient, but she was also strict. She let me learn at my own pace, but she made sure I learned.

She told me, "It's you who has to keep living this life. Not me." She wasn't wrong. She usually wasn't.

[riverbeans]

... She sounds like a good mentor.

[ravenry]

[ that gets a small smile out of shouxue. ]

She was. I do not know who I would be now without her.

[riverbeans]

Mm. People like that tend to hold a special place in one's heart, huh?

[ravenry]

[ she nods. ]

I recently met someone who knew her when she was young, and I heard things I never knew about her. It was so nice.

[riverbeans]

Haha... it's strange to think of our mentor figures as having been young themselves once, isn't it? But I'm glad you had that chance.
