The Breath of Aska: Part One

They locked me away, buried me in the shadows like a sin no one dared to speak of. The world despised what it could not understand, and my face… my face had always been a curse.

Nightmares didn't just haunt me. They devoured me, ripping through my mind and bone, whispering truths too sharp to bear. Memories I'd never lived twisted around me, bleeding lies so real they could kill. Everyone knew the story of my life. Everyone, except me.

My mind was like a prison, a locked door being hammered from the other side, and whatever waited there… waited with blood on its hands.

Please, Gods. Save my soul.
