Talking with Imoen

I saw Imeon again today and I told her I got adopted and she was really happy for me, and she told me to never forget Foxxy and to take a bath. I said I would never do either and laughed. She took me and my adoptive sister to a lake and I pretty much had to get a bath just cuz she wanted me to and I always end up doing what she says.

I scrubbed up and even washed behind my ears before getting dressed again and going to sit with her. I think I'm finally starting to understand about Imoen now. She said she often feels like shes my teacher or nurse. I told her I'd gladly accept anything she could teach me, aand even admitted shes maybe just a little wiser than I am. I told her I always admired her and Velrik though I couldnt get it out right.

The truth of it is her and Velrik are both really powerful and smart, I kinda wanted to be like them since they're such great adventurers, so I tried to always say and do what I thought was right, and we did fight a lot but only because I wanted Ariel to be happy and have as free a life as we'd always lived. It always bugged me when we got in fights because I wanted their approval so bad, and I guess I kind of figured I'd have to fight for it.

Well anyhow she still had to ask me not to look up at her and thats the way I figure she is. Good people are always modest and they feel that they don't do enough. Imoen is always putting herself down but everyone else knows shes a real hero, unlike me.

She eventualyl had to go home but while she was getting ready to leave she said I could be more than I gave myself credit for. I asked her what she meant and she told me to just keep striving to be better. I told her I would do that with her guidance and hugged her before she hopped on her really cool magical horse and left. I went out to my tower afterwards to sudy some spell books.
