She took her first breath, without even knowing of what her future held.  Through her innocent eyes, she saw the world as it should be. Bright and happy, born into a world that cherishes her every awaking moment. She was held by the caring embrace of her mother’s arms, warm and safe and eager to explore the world and all it has to offer.  Life has begun.

Though in desperate and dark times, her mother continues to love and protect her with all her power.  But still, not everything was right in the world.  Chaos and sadness begins to break out all around her and all that she knew for just a moment was taken away in the blink of an eye.

Happiness was just a fleeting moment between mother and daughter, for everyone knew what the cost was of bringing a child into a world torn apart by greed.  The child’s father was not a kind man and hadn’t been for such a long time.  In his mind, he wanted power, but a simple wish in the wrong mind can turn into greed and greed can turn into evil unimaginable. 

Though he could not kill his daughter when he first laid eyes upon her, despite his consciousness telling him to destroy her for she was the one who would stop him from gaining all that he wanted.  He simply banished her; thrown away like trash in the hope that the world itself would kill her and he wouldn’t have to after he had destroyed his son. But he could never follow through.

The child was distraught being torn apart from the loving arms of her mother and sentenced to live a life where she had to survive on her own for years on end.  All she knew was pain, sadness and fear, the struggle in which held her at bay and to never learn of the destiny she and those before her knew of which she would end her father’s tyranny and evil.

The child’s innocence was destroyed many times over and she always wondered what it would be like if none of this had ever happened to her, to actually live the life she wanted and to be with her mother who cared for her dearly.   She was alone and scared, forever tormented by those who wished to play a deadly and cruel game with her, treating her like she was nothing but a puppet or toy, even food once.

The child’s father over the years became more greedy and insane with the idea that he could have everything, growing ever more so powerful under the influence of a stronger evil.  An evil which told him many times over in order to have everything, he must sacrifice his daughter to him.  The very idea was insane.  But he had no choice; he came so far already... why stop now?

All she ever wanted was to be loved by a mother and father and to have a childhood, a childhood which had been stolen from her.  Neither the father nor the child herself will rest until one of them survives.

It is a game of cat and mouse, predator and prey and through it all no matter what she knew she would need to survive, she wanted to survive and be happy, to be reunited with her mother.

She will be the light in the darkness. She’ll be his destruction. One day.

There is still hope, no matter how much it seems out of reach.

There is still hope, with a child so innocent.

No matter how hard it would seem, she’ll lead the way.

Just need to light the flame of hope within her.

For a child can do a many wonderful things.

Come 6am this morning... the time where I actually want to go to bed and sleep after having been up all night. Inspiration strikes and an insane need to write about Luciana comes up. :stinkeye: It's not the first time this had happened.

Anyway I guess that's the thing about inspiration and muses.. That is the funny thing about inspiration muses... they show up when you least expect and don't wish to have them come but when you do want them to show up they are never around. :stare:

Anyway random writing is random, but still very much based upon my character Luciana. I don't know if it makes sense or not. :paranoid: The writing is very raw and doesn't flow like a real story should. However, you can see proper stories elsewhere in my gallery and my story group. I am currently working with two friends on two separate collaborations with Luciana and one should be ready soonish. :)

If you are interested in learning more about her and her story check out #LoreithianChronicles. :love:
