“What does it mean to be a hero? Would throwing oneself into the face of danger count as an act of bravery? What if it was done aimlessly? What would be the consequences? These are some of the things I pondered when I first became a knight at Sunsettle. For so long I’ve dreamed of a purpose... Were I can be strong, and dependable. Being born with multiple life threatening conditions may have put me at a disadvantage, but I swore that I would never give up on improving myself. Each day I wonder: ‘How much more can I push past my limit this time?’ And ‘What will it be like to finally overcome my weaknesses?’ The image of my future self... Shielding the ones I love with an unfathomable amount strength, combined with a still mind to control my newly developed abilities... That, is what keeps me going every day. This Nightmare Night, I am dedicating to my favorite character from my favorite anime, Boku no Hero Academy! It’s not often that I fall for the main character, but I couldn’t help but to see myself in Izuku Mydoriya. Especially when my illnesses and lack of height caused me to fall behind during physical activities at my schools. I was often avoided by some and harassed by many as a student, and at one point, my own brother told me that the doctors shouldn’t have wasted their time in saving me. But I persisted. Not to gloat, but to make my parents proud... Even when they were the most fearful for me. I just hope that I can continue to further exercise my skills, so that I may one day, influence the next generation of heroes. No matter how small, how feeble, or how slow they may seem. They’ll need an example, that anyone can be a hero!” -Rio-Rio Russell
