Bookmark Notes:
The best Aranessa POV ever. While attempting to NOT quote the whole fic, some bangers are:
"No title. No formality. Only devotion, as frantic and complete as that of the vines clinging to her arms"
"She spent those hours fashioning careful words, to be spoken in a polished voice. They were wasted, withered in her lungs, and they emerge now as screams."
"Her hands clench, fingers curling, claw-like, and in answer to their motion, gnarled branches, spined and vindictive, erupt from the floor beneath her, tearing at her gown, winding around her arms and legs, a spiteful embrace that rips her from the grasp of the ghouls and holds her rooted to the flagstones for which she sold her happiness.
If Thjazi Fang could not drag me from this house, then you certainly will not."
"She came of age in a plane of gilded magic, of green leaves and glittering sunlight, of bargains fulfilled, even at terrible cost. She was raised upon the promise that the gifts of that world were her own, and that its doors would welcome her, whenever she called out."
"She holds no script for the part of the hero"
