Nothing makes Leah happier than a true adventure.

Rolling hills full of wild flower meadows. The feeling of freedom when mountains loom in the distance. The thought of small significance and the comfort of it.

Giant pine forests where the sunlight flits through the canopy of the trees. Dappled orange pine needles litter the floor underfoot and you see something running through the tree trunks in the corner of your eye.

But she cant go there anymore, she used to travel far and wide. But all it brings now is darkness and hatred of memories that once were. Lost friends and family turned putrid.

Leah can't travel without fear.
Leah can't relax without anxiety.
Leah can't have friends without losing them.
Leah can't live without the death that she brings with her.

But she tries, and that's all that matters. She makes the most of what is and what will be. She compromises where she can.

Maybe one day she'll tell you her stories of adventure and betrayal, but you'll have to get to know her better first.
