《An old mans tale!》Fates Fools!

"You, you are the youngest of those that come here and I can see it on your face. Why are you so sad? What is it that causes you misery."
"You say that you hate doing something. Well ask youself what does it bring you. Chances? Oppertunity? Is it worth you misery. Sometimes we have to cut out those things from our lives to be happy. Others we have to keep with because to do otherwise is to forsake what we have. It is to turn our back on anything just because it gets tough. It is to lose hope in the world."
"Life is to short to not be happy son. Life could end tomorrow and if it did would you be happy with yours. If you do not want to play the piano just tell you folks that. Find your love of the instrimunt once more and just play for fun but don't keep doing something that you hate so much."
"You do not have to over come your hate of it just so that other people can be happy. Let me tell you a tale of something that I hated when I was your age."
I have never liked the quiet times much. They just move to slow for my taste. How can you have fun if you never try and just move.
Well my sister once asked me if I would go out and do nothing with her. To just go somewhere nice and sit around all day doing nothing. Happy as can be and twice as content.
It was hard for the first couple of hours I will freely admit. To just sit and be content, to not feel the urge to get up and run as far and as fast as I was able.

It took hours for me to get in a state where I was happy and the whole time I was hateing ever second of it. Why can't I just go for a walk or something. But eventually we got to talking and watching the clouds. How they moved across the sky and everything just being lazy and drifting on the breaze.
Well I hated what i was doing at first but now days it is fun and a nice way of spending the evning. It was worth keeping at it.
Is the piano worth it for you?

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]

Now she must figure out how to survive when everything seems to want to eat her, all while feeling the threat of that ancient eldritch looming ever closer.
