Odette Elara Viotto was supposed to die on November 13th 1990, the day her sister placed a blade into her stomach, the day she bled out in the snow in the forest behind her family's Manor.
But she did not.
Rather the name be buried with it's true owner, it was given to another— the couple who gave a witch the name unable to part with it.
Odelia Lilith Viotto was the name that was buried, six feet below the dirt, living forever infinitely with the worms and the wrong body.
Zion Kepler's memory was correct in thinking it were the girl with red hair that bore the name Odette, and the girl with raven hair Odelia— though when the true Odette perished, a new one was born... one born out of sorrow and grief.
The new Odette— formerly known as Odelia— believed her sister to be dead, she attended the funeral. It was a small service, only her parents, a couple of distant relatives and herself attended.
She watched the mahogany wood coffin be lowered into the earth, shed tears of grief for her sister, spoke kind words despite being the one responsible for her death.
The rest of the world's memory of the real Odette faded over time, lies that she was just a distant cousin the Viotto family took in for a few years spread through the community— any knowledge and memories of the Viotto twin girls was soon forgotten, lies and deception taking their place.
