Execution Day

Have you ever been asked one of those "stuck-on-an-island-questions? If not, we're asking you one right now.

What do you do when you find yourself in a place that isn't supposed to exist? When it's inhabitants, even with their haunted eyes and scarred ideals, aren't supposed to be alive? Yet they are.

What do you do when you're so wrapped in changing the world, you forget along the way whether you were meant to save it or destroy it?

What do you do when there is a fire in front of you and a crazed town behind you, chanting for your death? Do you jump, do you fight or do you flee? Or perhaps you wait?

What do you do when all you can be is a guinea pig, when that is the only word that can describe you? Would you want to see if you were ever worth more than an expirement?

What do you do when the judgements don't ever end? Always there, always a whisper in the ear. Except you want to shout back and can' t?

For Maelynn, the island binds more than her. It's where the boundaries between the past, the present and the future are so blurred they don't even exist. Escape is futile. After all, this is four hundred years in the making.
