SOHALIA
But you're untouchable, burning brighter than the sun
”But I am. That’s what it means to be a leader, isn’t it?” she argued, shaking her head. Zavien didn’t understand - she’d failed her people in more ways than one, and that was something that she just couldn’t seem to find her way past, no matter how kindly the dragoon might try to convince her otherwise.
But regardless, he also wasn’t wrong about her motivations for leadership, or about stepping back. Hadn’t Flora suggested precisely the same thing, not so very long ago? And hadn’t Soh considered how nice it might be to escape for a while, to give herself the chance to find herself again? ”If I take a step back,” Soh said slowly, tracing a line of wood grain on her desk with one finger. ”Does that make me weak or selfish? I don’t… know if some people would understand my decision.” Read: Koa might not understand her decision. ”And who would take my place?”

And now that you're close I feel like coming undone
