anyways, some things are still a bit confusing and they weren't explained in this, so basically this chapter is an explaining chapter

________________________________ CASSIE'S BACKSTORY (because yes, she needs trauma)
- I don't want to make this thing very messy or confusing, so I'll try to say it as plain as possible, more or less? Idk 😭
- I should've made it clearer in the book, but I was making it up as I went (kinda), and then I was re-writing and writing the Iliad at the same time.
- So yeah, if you were extremely confused ab the timeline or Cassie's backstory it's my fault, sorry 🤗
We start off strong and she's fatherless, her mother married Aaron Cartwell (not a nice guy), who has a son, Killian Cartwell (who's fifteen).
So she meets Percy, and when she's nine, Killian dies and she and her mother move to L.A. (Aaron is assumed dead).
Her mom up to that point wasn't doing great, but Cassie was always out (with Percy or at school), and Aaron did the shopping and took care of the house. When they leave to L.A it gets even worse.
Cassie's mom is sick? Kind of like May Castellan, but Yasmin Bradbury has lapsus in her memory, no visions or premonitions and stuff.
She has of time when she doesn't remember absolutely anything, out of it basically. Then for small periods of time she has lucid moments and remembers stuff, and gets even more depressive.
So miss ma'am doesn't even remember her name, she obviously doesn't remember she has a kid and she has to feed her and do everything a mother has to do.
So Cassie is out all the time looking for food, pickpocketing and all that. She goes to school and when she's ten she goes to camp.
But because she loves her mother she comes back to her, to take care of her, even though her mother doesn't even recognise her.
At times she does, and they fight, but then they make up, have a little moment that Cassie thinks will last, and then her mother goes whako again.
After her mother is taken to a house/psych ward type of thing, Cassie stays as a year rounder in camp.
(Thank you for bearing with me for so long, flo <3)
