Since childhood, I’ve believed I was unnecessary—to my parents and to my relatives. I grew up on my own, gaining experience through trial and error. I thought I’d mature and it would get easier—but no. That guy used me shamelessly, and his gift dragged me into another world—where majestic castles tower and enormous fire-breathing reptiles cut through the vast spaces above.
They say I’m paired with one of them. Given to him by the heavens. But I don’t really believe that. And the behavior of his sister—if she really is who she claims to be—raises questions. I don’t know what they planned, but I’m not the person I was before anymore. I won’t meekly stay silent and obey. Let them not even hope!
