Death Knell

Words can’t describe how happy I am to dump the duty of mediation back to Xander, he was much better at the job than I was. It was amazing how he could remain so calm and polite after listening to people drone on and on about their problems, no matter how ridiculous it was. One of my biggest flaws was that it was really hard for me to empathise with other people, especially when they came to me with their problems, as I was brought up with harsh teachings where you either faced your own problems head on, on your own, or let them consume you. Asking for help was almost out of the question as that was seen as a sign of weakness, thus we rarely asked for help in front of our trainers and tried our best to help one another in secret... lest we get found out and punished.
