Chapter Text
The girl called Evelyn, just 15 years of age, sprinted through the woods. She didn’t know where she was going, she just wanted to get away. She couldn’t handle it anymore.
“Ugh, that brute. What a waste of high blood.” When all she did was stumble.
As Evelyn ran, the thin branches of the dense greenery surrounding her cut up her cheeks and her cloak ripped on mangled roots that shot up out of the ground below her.
“If her foolish mother had not run away with one of those repulsive humans she could have actually been worth something.”
But the sting of the cuts on her skin was nothing compared the the tightness of her throat and the burn of tears behind her eyes.
And so she ran.
Evelyn ran until she couldn’t run any longer. She ran, carrying with her the bitter hatred she felt towards humanity, her people, and herself. She ran until the burn in her muscles and in her heart finally pulled her to the ground and her body forced her to rest.
