<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

They were destined to be a hero.


By who?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Now I’m confused. What do you mean?


Where’d the destiny come from?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Their destiny to be heroes.


That they decided?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

If they decide they want to abandon the path, they are.


What path?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Then their destiny and will are in conflict.


Are they?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

What about people who try to fight their destiny? Like heroes?


What about them?
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

A destiny is like the path you were meant to take, and it's something that always happens if you make the right choices along the way. Your will is just something you want.


Sounds like the same thing to me.
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Your destiny is out of your control, but your will is your own.


I say they’re one and the same, if we’ve already established that you can circumvent and change destiny.
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

In that case, you just go after whatever your new destiny is, if you still have one.


And we’ve reached the point where we’re talking about will, instead of destiny.
<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I don't know about that... I've never seen it happen. If it does, the odds are probably against you.


That’s the problem with believing in destiny so hard. One failure deals a blow to your confidence and then it’s all just a consequence of the Ouroboros of self-fulfilling prophecy from there.
