"I'm surrounded by expecting faces, counting on me to make the call, counting on me to ensure victory, counting on me to solve our problems, counting on me to stop the apocalypse. Sounds heroic but this is a terrible position, everybody wants to be the leader. That is until you are and the grim reality of leadership takes you out like the finest assassin. The part no one mentions, the part hardened leaders aren't affected by anymore. Life on the razors edge. Surrounded by expecting faces, each and every one of them putting their lives in you're hands. Each and every one of them confident in you're ability, each and every one trusting you. I've led operations before but nothing like this, the sheer unfettered fear I feel knowing I could lead them all to their deaths is hunting down my sanity. Remember now, I'm the leader. That inspiring position we all secretly aim for, no room for doubt, no room for fear. No room for emotion. The leader needs to be strong, calculating, cold when needed and uplifting when required. The leader needs to put himself aside, lock his being in a cage and keep marching. The leader needs to carry all the risk, all the guilt. The leader needs to... I need to do what needs to be done without ever knowing if it was right or not. The part no one mentions. The curse of leadership." - Ezekiel, Chapter 10
