02. sticks and stones
There is a phrase that was popular among the human children. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. If only those children knew exactly how wrong they were. Words were what made up our very being, kind and loving words from our mothers comforted us as children, the words of our peers shaped our personalities, our friends opinions of us maintained our self esteem. So who is to say that words cannot break us?
I had first hand experience with hurtful words. Stupid. Troublesome. Useless. These were words I encountered so frequently that they became part of me. My father resented me based on how I looked. Just like her. He would whisper that to himself, thinking I couldn't hear him. All I was to him was a painful reminder of his dead wife. My mother. It wasn't my fault that I was identical in every way except hair color, my father knew this, but it didn't matter to him. He just needed a way to vent his mourning over her, so he took it out on his eldest daughter. He wasn't physically cruel mind you, but mental scars were long lasting. His words would remain with me always, and I would never reforge the relationship I had with him as a child, before she died.
Sticks and stones may break you bones, but words will irreparably harm you.

01. letter.
Asteria kept many secrets. Being raised by a creature of lies and deception, they practically made up her whole being. She never kept these secrets from her mother though. Her mother was her confident, the only person in the whole world she could trust. So she thought anyways, but there was always one secret that she keeps hidden from even her mother. She keeps a box of letters, writing a new one every month. They were letters to her brother, who she never expected to see again. She told her brother all her thoughts, all her feelings. Even the bad ones she tried to deny existing. Doubts about her mother, who her brother never quite got along with, who told her about her brothers death. It was the humans, they killed him. They had to be exterminated. They were a parasite, a disease. She wrote and she wrote, because in her mind, he was still alive, and her letters keeps him so.

Yeah, I can guarantee that next to none of you will have any idea about whats going on. Only people who pick my brain on a daily basis will recognize this character, or her past. (She is not human, she's an elf, hence why she would like to kill the humans. She may or may not be insane. Don't ask me, I don't know. xD )
Peace out.
