I had birthed a stranger. Every sensation felt like too much as I waited to see my son, who had just killed a man. The distant rattle of the officers’ equipment permeated my ears and my eyes shot up to see them escorting their captive, a small boy who only needed a single hand to restrain. I left my chair in a haste and forgot to bring my purse, running to take him from the officers as if that wou...
Fifth Entry of Summer Equinox
My Lord, it has become increasingly apparent with the overwhelming signs of temptation and methods of sin, that my human has begun to stray. This may be an occurrence of plethoric nature and I could be one of many Guardians who has shown concern, but being my first assignment, I cannot help but remain worrisome with where my human is going. I ask for assistanc...
We celebrate the living mostly during their time of death. I heard stories of tradition where awaking from a mere moment of slumber was a call for celebration. How hypocritical.

This person is not one I love,
They may be one I detest,
But even so,
