Then he called out, "Dahna! Our newest member wants to know why you want to dance, since you were forced to as a slave."

Lad, no one feels ready. No one feels he deserves it. And you know why? Because no one does. It's grace, pure and simple. We are inherently unworthy, simply because we're human, and all human beings--aye, and elves, and dwarves, and all the other races--are flawed. But the Light loves us anyway.
