Some things, no matter how big, are hidden in plain sight.

*********************************************


She thought she was normal. She thought 
her fate would never cross the boundaries of her small town in Spain. She thought she had the most predictable life ever.


But she was a girl whose fate had already been decided. A fate written as soon as she was born. And that fate horrifying as it was, was casually handed to her as if handing her an ice cream cone.

She had lived in ignorance. She had lived without knowing that she would one day be the saviour of millions. It was as if hands from the sky had come down, taken her life and shaken it roughly while all she could do was helplessly watch and cope with the chain reaction of events that eventually would lead her to a horrifying truth, betrayal and her true identity; a one she did not know she possessed. 

History was here to be re-written by her.
