Title: Onward Rating : G Word Count: 178 Summary: Kel realizes what she was really meant to do

Notes: Spoilers from Lady Knight

This was what she was meant to do. Everything had put her towards this mission. All the work, all the pain, all the hours. It had been pushing her towards this even though she hadn't known it at the time. She thought she just wanted to be a knight. She never dreamed to be anything more. These were her people, though: People who had come to accept her as she was for what she was. It was because of them that she risked her shield, because when her people were in danger nothing else mattered. Protecting the small was why this life had chosen her. She would go to the ends of the earth because that was all she could do. Physically she could turn around, but in the end, she would keep going forward, for this was all she honestly could do. If she didn't save these people, then the ordeal would take over her dreams and drive her mad for denying her calling.
