CC DD Surrendered

__NOTOC__
==Hardship Result: Surrendered==
If you scored a Failure (not enough Steps for a Dilemma, i.e. two or fewer Steps than Difficulty) or a Disaster (a Failure and a Stumble) on your Hardship Test, then you were defeated by the challenges that life laid upon your shoulders. You gave in to temptation, you failed to rise to the challenge, and your life suffered significantly as a result. The only upside is that you learned some very hard lessons as a result of what you had to go through.
