So much pain…
My eyes burn with the sunlight coming through the curtains, the world around me spins endlessly as my fingernails try to find somewhere to grip onto. I try to face that glare burning my retinas the way I always do, but the damn fireball on the sky continues to punish my face in its own way.
Someone knocks on the door as I try to sit up in bed.
"Lady Ravenna, may I come in?"
It's one of my maids, I don't remember exactly which one, but she must have been here when my father was still alive.
"Come in."
I grab a blouse lying on the bedside table, covering my breasts and everything below my neck, but I don't need to be ashamed of showing so much skin to just any maid. She enters, carrying a trolley with plates and wearing her perfectly neat uniform.
