Dear Laura,
Life isn't fair! I've beaten back every Grendel I've ever met, have formed a strong alliance with the Ettins so they'd stop stealing the machinery in the Norn Terrarium, kept the Shee Ark from crashing into the sun, and every creature loves and worships me, but my terribly terrible past has made it impossible to enjoy any of that! I might be a piano virtuoso who can play the keys with my mind, while building amazing machines that just make life better and better, yet I never have time to be a show off because I'm always annoying everyone with my whining and complaining. How can I forget my horrible past so I can be perfectly perfect and loved by everyone?

Dear Mary Sue,
Perhaps you'll be happier with life as a secondary character, in this unfortunate piece of fan fiction your Hand has penned. Everyone's expectations of you won't be as high, and you won't be deemed important enough for your terribly terrible past to contribute anything to the story! The first step would be to get kidnapped. Take a leisurely stroll through the Jungle Terrarium and poke the first Grendel you see in the eye. If all goes to plan, you should find yourself suspended in a cage over the piranha pond. I hope you're good with heights! Then wait patiently for a less-than-perfect Norn to come and steal the spotlight by rescuing you against all odds, in which he'll learn a lot about himself, his flaws and his hidden strengths.
