The Goddess smiled. “I do not plan mortals’ lives for them, Alanna. You must do that for yourself. However, if you follow the map, you will find its path interesting.”

Short, fierce, stubborn (to a fault), and true to herself. Alanna was such a role model for teen me!

Extremely over this Cosplay Contest trend where it's acceptable to publicly smack talk your competitors and obsess over winning as the "next step" to cosfame. These are COMMUNITY events. If winning is your obsession, you need to take a step back and think about why you cosplay.
