Spoken Weapons

Words - Complex, priceless, unwanted yet loved and hated.
Words are a weapon in this world, rarely used due to danger. Not many of the citizens have spoken, only written or signed. Sign language is basically the only language there is. Speaking in a way is criminal - not necessarily, but by how little it's used, it can seem like it.

Those who choose to speak, occasionally, must use it for dire impossible circumstances only. But there's a Rebel to this whole world, one who refuses to adjust to the rules and guidelines. Written and unwritten.

Navaeh hates this world. Hates the lack of speaking. Hates the laws. And wants to do something about it. So, she speaks often. Too often. She's often hated for it, and urged by her family and everyone to use sign language. But she's a weapon, unknown to her, for a revolutionary change. Change she wants but does Navaeh really want it to this level? To uproot and change everything everyone ever has known, her whole extended life.

Nevaeh's weapon is words. Her game is change. And she is in danger, huge amounts of criminal danger.
