I still believe in you

Gossamer retreated to her den after the raid concluded and her healing duties subsided. She'd been struggling with her roll as a warrior and her desire to obtain the rank of Lieutenant but loss after loss left her confidence shaken. First the pirate, then the tournament, now her first raid. Was she simply on the wrong path? Should she be focusing more on healing? Gossamer grit her teeth. What could she do to improve her skill? To gain back her confidence? Beating up that stupid old pirate came to mind but in truth it wasn't enough. What it came down to was that she didn't feel like she was enough.

Gossamer's ears flicked back as she heard her father's call. She had a pretty good idea he wanted to discuss the raid and her ears burned hot with embarassment. With a sigh she got to her feet and headed out to speak with her father. She approached with a sheepish look on her face. "Father? I'm sorry… I don't know what happened."
