There has never been a greater illusion than fear. Fear exists only whilst you believe in it - whilst you fear it. So...stop believing, stop fearing. Set up a shadow inventory, write down all your fears and set out on your warrior path. Make this your life purpose and gold will be smelt from your terror.
Geoff Thompson

One extremely important purpose of emotions from an evolutionary perspective is to help us decide what to remember and what to forget.

The emotion of love (or something resembling it) and the emotion of fear would help secure her memories.
