“Those emotions aren’t the full truth about you, but it’s easier to recognize that about someone else. These friends around you—you’d banish their fears if you could. You’d convince them that the truth of who they are is so much vaster.” Alaric rubbed at his face and looked around the group. “As clearly as you know that about them”—Will caught Sini’s eye—“remember the same about yourselves. If you can’t hear your own voice telling you that your fears do not define you, then believe the words your friends would speak.”
