Why not?

Nope.

Victory.

What are the ballgame's helper? Magic card

I release the winds that hold her and at the same time order them to lower her to the ground carefully.

What is your most prized possession. The morning paper.

That could be a problem !!

I break off my conversation. I will the winds to surround the lunging figure. They grab her and hold her in place. "Calm down. I don't know who you are, but you must calm down."

What is the tenth waffle? You can maybe sort of pass

Why?

I hurry to keep up with my friends as they speed up. I recall my light blades. The moment that I am parallel with Fadran, I respond. "I know now that it is not weakness to feel emotion. If lose control while I alone stand at the gate they will get out. I was worried that Aridith would set them free when I was trapped we are fortunate that he was unable to." I pause before continuing. "In theory it is possible for others to guard with me. There is a ritual to be performed, but there is a way for this task to be shared. However, this is not something to be taken lightly."

In a flash our spirits descend into the heart of my mindscape. It is a vast darkness leading to many constructs and realities. Only thick inky shadows can be seen. It is an unnaturally calm plane of existence. Behold, my mindscape. A construct where one can retreat in times of need. In time to come I can show you how to create one of your own. Instantly, we are transported to a different place. Thunderheads scream and lightning bolts clash. Deafening violence surrounds us. Hail stones rain down around us, but do not do us harm. Unnatural heat sears the air. Before us are a pair of heavy stone gates that hang in the air. Ancient runes in thousands of languages curve around the sides. Icy chains of jagged steel hold it fast. The chains are held by dozens of burning locks carved with spells. These are the gates of Gareshusir. Beyond them are Monsters, Demons, Gods, and other malevolent forces. The worst were locked away so long ago I have forgotten. I keep them from destroying existence itself. In my moment of emotion the doors almost slammed open and let them out if even one were to escape I shudder to think what might result. This is why I must be guarded this is my burden. I wave my hand and we return. "Now you understand. So long as I bear this alone. My burden this will remain."

On the bright side I win.

I don't disagree.

Do we? *Wins.*

*Wins.*

I nod my head. My eyes are hard as I slam the gates shut. "There are reasons that I remain guarded. Let me show you something, Fadran, if you are willing.

I raise my mental walls. I feel the truth of Fadran's words. I can sense tears pouring down my face. I fall to my knees. A dam of emotion ruptures. Emotions long held in check are set free. My powers are tightly reigned in, but the air begins to cool nonetheless. I can no more banish these feelings than I can bring back those who have been lost. I can sense the other realms where I have ties. The realm where they are imprisoned trembles as the bonds holding them in weaken. In a flash I force myself to shut out my emotions. The tears are pushed down and I stand with the emotions suppressed. The air returns to normal and I allow no thought of that prison to wander.

I take hold of the pen and paper thoughtlessly and I write down a version in the most ancient of scripts. I hand it back to Fadran and lower all of the defenses of my mind.
