Dear Diary:

by Mirabella Rosebriar

Once upon a time there was a girl,
she lived in a very big house with a mother and father. She had fancy clothes and a life planned out for her.
She met the man she was supposed to marry, and that was when she decided she hated her life.
And she broke every promise her parents made on her behalf.
She was sent away...hidden.
For some reason, she allowed this to happen.
For a whole year. But then, she realized that an entire world existed beyond the walls of the convent.
And so the brave girl snuck out. She discovered what having a friend was like. She discovered what having many friends was like.
She discovered what love was. And what it was like to meet others who loved her.
The girl met her gods. And they filled her with love and frustration. They scared her.
Then she fell in love with another person so fully and completely, she agreed to be married.
And it was...both the most wonderful and terrible experience ever.
And when that partner left her, she thought the world was over.
Except...
Her god asked if she would be his daughter. And she had a family again.
A new partner arrived and she fell in love again. Able to trust another person.
So once upon a time there was a girl...
And right before she gave up....she found so many others.
