Maybe so, but I would be lying if I said I was in a hurry to discover whatever that may be. Which I know is unbecoming of me. As former archdruid, I shouldn't shy away from discovering my limitations. How am I to be a role model and teacher to others, let alone a leader, if I avoid learning more about myself?
And yet I find that I hope, with the Oakfather's blessings, that I won't have to go close enough to any city to discover what I'm not accustomed to, especially one that frowns upon animals any larger than a small cat.
We all must meet the challenges arrayed before us in our own time. Rushing toward them will do nothing but cause you to stumble. I've every confidence that you will meet them with dignity and wisdom when the time comes.

Although I am unhappy to say that our road will inevitably lead to Baldur's Gate.
I would be lying if I claimed otherwise. But, if I could manage swamps and bogs and things of that ilk, so I can manage Baldur's Gate. At least, that is what I tell myself. And I'm certain it is not the worst place that we could end up in.
There are surely better places, but - and perhaps it is personal bias which speaks through me - I think there are also worse places. I hope that I can show you some of my fondness for it, at least.
If naught else, I will do everything in my power to stay with you, should that help. Personal matters may briefly waylay me, but if I can be a comfort, then I will do all that I can.
I wouldn't want you to feel obligated to tend to me, and yet I know that you are not the sort of man who'd feel obligated by something like this. I suppose the only thing I can say is this - thank you.

If I may help with this, then I will do what small things I can to assure it.
