...All that could be heard that night were screams...
Screams of terror,fear,pain,anger, and lastly regrets. A eight year old girl shouldn't have regrets right? Nisshoku carried the burden of the people around her , her mother's death was all she was recognized for. She had been disliked by everyone around her, all because of it. It wasn't her fault...was it? That question lingered her mind for years. Eight years later after the day of her birth and death of her mother here she was. Kneeling in front of the shrine of the all powerful goddess, Venus, her cheeks scarred by her own father's blade of betrayal. Her cheeks stained with her tears of sorrow as they fell and mixed with her blood. The kimono she wore was tore up on her small pale body, blood seeping on the soft fabric. Nisshoku couldn't move, or breathe, it hurt . Everything hurt so much her body wanted to give up, she thought it was better to let go of this world. After all there was nothing left for her. Her blood red eyes closed for what seemed like forever as she felt her hair gently caress her scarred face, her dark hair once used to be long like every one's but they cut it off. She felt naked now that she had nothing to hide her from the world of pain , it was her joy. Every morning Nisshoku would style it like her neighbor who taught her how to take care of it. The same neighbor that saw her for her, taught her everything she knew. How to make medicine , how to bandage a injury, how to cook basic meals like eggs.It was all gone, her body, her heart, why did she bother even fighting her fate? After all the battles she fought and lost within herself it was useless to fight another one.Nisshoku's body quivered and trembled, feeling the coldness wrap around her fragile body. Everything faded away into darkness as she fell to the ground, in her own puddle of blood and tears.The words repeated in her mind,useless,pathetic,you should of died instead of your mother, you are a mistake. The same exact words were thrown at her with out a thought and they hurt like glass shards. Nisshoku was just a child,of course she didn't know what these words meant but she knew they're bad. She felt the darkness and coldness wrap itself around her broken body as her breathing slowed down , Nisshoku's eyes closed for good now...she took her last breath.
..."Hey wake up child, you're safe now."...Heyayay, Shushi cat aka the author here I decided to write this book about my character's lore since I thought it would be interesting to share with others.
