⚠Warning ⚠ Read at your own risk. This will be the vilest thing I've written so far and I did my best to tone it down. Ruby will be a minor at age 14 when this happens and if you find this very repulsive message me and I will delete it.
This is only halfway edited only finishing my Grammarly check and not yet thoroughly proofread so don't expect too much.
Where do I begin? When did my story really start? My life is a whole big confusion now so I'm having a really hard time thinking about things and how they happened. Everything was just so fast that my memories are almost a blur. But perhaps I should start with my oldest clear memory.
My name is Ruby Rosengard. My parents died when I was little so my grandparents took care of me but they too passed away when I was 10 so it was my Uncle Roger who took it upon himself to raise me. We live in the middle of the Dark Forest, a large dangerous woods filled with vicious monsters and treacherous creatures.
Uncle Roger taught me a lot of things such as reading, writing, cooking, hunting, gathering, the basics of home-making, as well as my most favorite skill which is fighting. Roger said that most girls my age were not taught how to fight but he believed that I should learn how to defend myself and fight for what's right. He taught me that my gender nor my age is a hindrance for me to fight and defend those that are vulnerable. He educated me about justice and kindness but drilled it hard on my mind that selflessness is a good virtue but not at the expense of my own safety.
Every day we would do almost everything together. Cooking, eating, fetching water from the well, gathering firewood, reading fairytales and adventure novels, carving wooden animals, sleeping in the afternoon, and stargazing in the night. We were the only one's living together in our humble home in our small remote village but we were happy. I was contented with our isolated life living peacefully until... they came along.
One day two men came to our house seeking refuge. They were bruised and battered, exhausted and hungry. They don't have anywhere else to go so they begged my uncle to let them stay even for a little while which he allowed with a bit of reluctance. I learned that they were comrades of my uncle when he was still a hunter living in the Empire and these two were somewhat his students.
I helped Uncle take care of them cooking their meals and providing them beverages while he treats their injuries. They recounted their stories to my uncle on what happened to them and why they had come here. The handsome blond man with the alluring blue eyes whose name I came to know as Alucard told my Uncle about the corruption of some powerful Empire knights and how he and his friend Granger, the stoic man dressed all in black, sought to expose it and right some wrongs to regain his father's honor. I didn't understand the details of that very much since I was just a child of 14 years of age and I was busy keeping the food from burning so I didn't grasp the specifics of their conversation but I did get that some men are trying to kill them for their knowledge and intentions. Much like the conflict of most adventure novels I read.
"Roger, isn't it high time that you introduce us to our beautiful little companion here? Is she your daughter? Though I doubt it since how can a sucker like you birth such excellent genes." said Alucard in a cheerful joking tone as I serve them their meals on the dinner table.
"I also can't figure out how your beautiful mother could birth something as hideous as you. You look like misshapen corn." Uncle replied with a haughty grin before subbing his cigar on the ashtray.
"Ruby these shit heads are Alucard, the corn turd, and the emo prince of darkness there is Granger but you'll barely notice him cause he's more of a shadow than a person. Shit heads this is Ruby, my niece."
