If I Must
Sometimes life forces us to make decisions for our own benefit, and sometimes for the benefit of others. We see it every day with those called to serve their communities. Acting against crime or evil can be difficult, but it is sometimes necessary. Here, Mara realizes that she is uncertain what she is to face on the other side of the door to her room at the inn, but she knows potential danger lurks there. Rather than cower, she prepares herself to meet the challenge. How would you meet such a challenge? I wonder if contemplating what might happen before an event can give us greater confidence should it occur. What do you think?
Book Excerpt
Oathtaker
“So, let’s say it’s true.”
“It is true.”
“All right, it’s true. What does it mean?”
“It means the woman and the two young men who sat at the table near us at dinner are standing outside our door, that’s what it means. And I don’t know if they are friend or foe.”
“All right then, let’s think about this. What’s the worst case scenario?”
“I take them out, I guess.”
“Can you do that?”
“If I must.”
