Shocked again she opened the gates of her tragic past
And bloody images came back to her mind
She remembered the old mission
The dark comet's goal beyond the suns
The flight through that black hole...
Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart...

When her blood ran through the dark ice
The surface began to tremble
Quakes and thunders clashing everywhere
This is Zaephyr's tragic doomsday

If I find a naked girl in the middle of nowhere, I will kill her, right then and there. She is obviously the harbinger of destruction, and it will be easier to do it before I fall in love with her.

"And while...[snip]...she often turns out to be some powerful goddess or angel, she almost never gets to use that power for herself. Instead, the villain kidnaps her, using her as a battery for some sort of nefarious plan, prompting the hero to rescue her yet again and take her back to a peaceful life in the village. Where's the heroism in that? Even when the lady becomes a goddess, she still can't save herself."

I threw the journal back into the dark and went to sit on my bed huddled around my own knees, thinking about my great-grandmother's prophecy. If I ever did go maleficer, if I ever did start pulling malia out of people like toffee and tossing off those killing spells of mine left and right, I'd be unstoppable. Maybe literally. Raining death and destruction on all the enclaves of the world like a maw-mouth myself, like the biggest maw-mouth ever, tearing the others apart because they were my competition.
And everyone else seemed to just be waiting for me to get going, except for Mum, who won't even call Hitler a bad person.
