I dream of sand. Millions upon millions of golden grains that hide such wonderful mystery. My memories included. My sleeping mind conjures imagery of distant cities, of hissing beasts. Of you. I no longer know who you are, but there is a grief in my heart when the concept of you plagues me. I'll wake, my cheeks damp with tears and my chest tight, and yet I cannot even fathom what you look like. Its the only inkling I have, the only thing that makes me doubt what mother and father have told me. I was a sick, frail girl. I was kidnapped for ransom. I must have gotten better, but forgotten everything in the process. Sometimes I wonder. In the loneliness of my dull room, back across the sea where they say I'm from... I wonder if my health was worth forgetting you. Following the vicious spread of rumors, her alleged and self-proclaimed family decide to cut their losses and make an attempt on her life to save face and ensure that their scheme was not discovered by the public. To avoid further speculation and more track covering, they take the moments when Aethelos is drawn away to the barracks by the draft and the tides of the city are preoccupied with the promise of war to make their move. Taking her moonstone ring, they plan to slay her under the guise of a feral wolf beneath the full moon. She greatly wounds the head of the Beleveron household before she is shot. Seeing the blood splay from her chest, the Beleveron's and their staff fully believe that she's dead. Thus far, their only public announcement on the affair is that their home was broken into and the vicious beast was put down following her attack on Lord Beleveron. It was only given after their neighbors had well overheard the multiple firing of rifles and the commotion of screams emerging from the shattered window. + After escaping her attempted murder, she was found and taken in by Avarice. She is currently staying with her. + Believed to be dead by any who would have known her in Odersten and otherwise. |
