Hell's teeth & scorned woman. You're all damned - Safiya - October 12, 2024
For more than a week she had fought for her life. Between fevers and phantom pains she was a mess. But today she awoke clear headed and cool. There was no clamminess to her skin cast. Her eye was not foggy with horror she was remembering. The singular sea green eye took in the plush surroundings.
And for the first time in a long time she wanted her siblings. She wanted to curl up with @Tiye and let her take care of her, she wanted to hold the paws of @Kiyya and @Kheti and she wanted her dad @Khusobek, but more than that she wanted to see the world with two eyes. She wanted @Machiavelli beside her to give her the gentle smile he reserved for her, that small light of pride in his eyes. But. She couldn't have that. She had flown too close to the sun and the price was high.
She slowly pushed herself to her feet. Her limbs aching. Every step making some new pain come to the forefront. She had to move her head side to side at first. On the left side she tumbled and hit a lot of things. Each bite of something foreign making her grit her teeth. She needed to learn to go through the world with one eye.
It was not graceful or demure the way she walked and she left chaos in her wake. But her determination won her a prize. And she stood at a corner where she could look out. To make sure the world was still intact when she was not. And slowly her legs folded under her and she sank to her belly on cold tile floors. Having spent her energy yet again.
