I think I know what I want to do. I've talked it over with Rina and she thinks it's dangerous, but she agrees. I want to become a paladin. She says that not a lot of people are well-suited for this but I think I am. I can help spread the word of Sarenrae. I can show people the forgiveness and redemption that Sarenrae praises. I can show people how beautiful life is from the side of goodness and truth and light. The world is so dark but I think I can bring Sarenrae's light to it. I really think this is good. I was born with the blood of an outsider in me. I was born good. Everything from my hair to my eyes to my necklace was meant to show off the sun. As a paladin, I'd still be able to heal people like the clerics here but I could also defend against evil. I could bless things and protect others from harm and truly be a champion for what's good in this world. I could save people from evils on the outside and within and I could show people how wonderful it is to follow a loving goddess. I can change the world. Rina says that paladins typically use weapons and armor and such, but given how well I've been doing with my training, she's sure I'd be fine without. I really feel good about this.
