   Summary

   "Jade always felt different and distant from everyone else in Tir Asleen. But she was grateful for the Queen letting her live there."

   "She was in her early teens when her training started. It gave her life a purpose and helped her with redirecting her emotions. But it wasn't enough, she didn't accept any mistakes from herself. She wanted perfection. She needed perfection if she wanted to become a Knight of Galladoorn. She wanted to join the Shining Legion more than anything in her life."

   But if she isn't "good enough" she hurts herself.
