I know I'm just a girl, but can I change lives?
Lilliane nodded, remaining silent for a moment. "Appreciating every moment is a good thought." She furrowed her brows, not angry but rather thoughtful. "I... understand that the gods, both old and new, are very important to the people in Caido. But everyone preparing for war just because it was announced that there would be one... Especially since most people don't even seem to want that war. They hate the thought, but they still accept it as a fact that the war will happen. It's sad. I know I'm not in a position to reason with gods. I'm just a normal person. I'm new here and I don't understand this world yet. But I feel like I have to do... something. Because as it is now, everyone seems unhappy." At the end of her monologue, she took a deep breath.
Looking over to Lena and noticing the arched eyebrow, Lilliane smiled slightly. Although it seemed to be a sad smile. "You see, most people I had a long talk to until now were Ascended. So far, I've seen only one side of the whole topic." Her gaze went over to a skyboat, currently setting off, maybe towards Stormbreak. "I don't think all the people in Stormbreak are bad. People aren't black and white like that. But I'm worried that the hatred towards the Ascended and the followers of the Voice might be worse than I think." There was a slight pause, then a sigh. "I'm also worried that I might hear things about the Ascended that change my opinion about them. So far, the ones I met were really nice. They offered me a place to stay and explained a lot of things to me. Some of them I'd really like to talk more to, maybe even become friends at some point. But what if, in Stormbreak, I hear something about them that I can't accept?" she admitted.
In some way, she felt better now. Her troubling thoughts put into words. Into something she could tackle. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bother you with my troubles."

If I am nothing, if I am trying, I think I can
