She climbs to the peak of the highest roof, the tallest tree, scales the biggest pylon, unaffected by vertigo and unafraid of the danger. There is something stoic and grand about her, as if she is carved from ancient stone, standing tall and proud for century after century. The soft curve of her lips pulls up into a smile when they tell her she is their pillar, the perfect support throughout hardship. She protects those who depend on her, offering them help in times of need.
