They look to me as their leader, as they have always done, but now I wish I had never given them reason to rely on me. They seem now as one's shadow, dependant on light behind a solid form. I wish them not to follow, but one cannot be rid of his own shadow. I once regarded their faith as flattering. Now too much responsibility is attached to leadership and I know I will be burdened with it when this rash journey ends disastrously. They put their faith in me, to lead, where I have none. Now I only follow.
