@queen_of_alvastia. NOPE! XD Other than snippets of Of Plimoth Plantation. Oh my gosh, girl, it’s still in the old English writing style!!!!! IT’S SOOOO CONFUSING!!!! XD XD XD
September 13, 2022 at 3:40 pm #117331@freedomwriter76 @queen_of_alvastia AH! Thank y’all!
so I’m glad u brought the brother thing up because…he is actually not….but I am sooo glad he SEEMS like he is!!!
so in this same scene I’m hoping to establish that he Isn’t Ara’s brother so there’s no confusion, but that he’s like her brother.
so it’s gonna come out maybe in this scene, maybe later as more is revealed, but just go ahead and let y’all know-
Ara is actually a bit of a “miracle child” in that her mother and father were told after being wed they would be unable to have children.
Obviously the Lord had other plans and they were thrilled with the birth of their little Princess, Arabella.
Sadly, though they wanted more (especially her mother, who would’ve loved to have a son) they cannot have anymore children, and it is not in God’s plan for them to bare anymore.
But Ara has always wanted a sibling and her parents another child.
thus Ganesh is kinda like an older brother to her, but he can’t be exactly like a sibling because he’s actually more of the messenger for God and is often away more then he’s there. (He’s actually a type and shadow of the angel Gabriel.)
HOWEVER as u all know…God works in mysterious ways and Ara does get the little brother she’s always wanted, and her parents get the baby boy they’ve always wanted, through Paxton!!
my heart….🥹🥹

JARED
The scrub brush scrapped against the hard floor.
The few torches flickered, but still, Jared had to squint to be able to see.
The floor needed to be polished.
Spotless.
No matter what.
If not…well…his back knew full well the punishment.
He sucked in a deep breath full of air.
His back still ached, stung, and bled from the last one.
Footsteps clicked against the floor.
Booted.
Loud.
Too familiar.
Painfully familiar.
“Jared. Stand.”
His body instinctively obeyed at the sound of Acheron’s voice.
The lock on the collar jingled as he stood. Acheron smiled slowly at the sound. “Ah, so you can obey.”
Jared’s gaze fell. Of course he knew how to obey. He just…he’d…failed.
“You know you were supposed to kill the Heir, not the current King.”
“I…I’m…”
Acheron’s backhanded blow came without warning. Jared didn’t fall.
He knew not to.
“Only speak when told to, Jared. I thought our recent…lesson…would remind you of your place. Do you need another?”
Jared bit down on his tongue, hard.
It bled.
Acheron smiled. Ran his hand through Jared’s black hair. “Good. Now…what did you learn? You may speak.”
Jared looked up.
Jared’s red eyes and Acheron’s coal met. “I…I failed you. I killed the King, not Prince Michael. I didn’t…I didn’t look before shooting the arrow and ran before I learned who I had killed.”
Acheron put up a hand. “That is enough.”
Jared’s gaze fell again. He saw the man with the scar over his left eye standing over him, sword in hand, as Jared thought he was going to die. “I’m not going to kill you. I was once in your place before. But The Light freed me. You can be free too. You’re worth a lot in The Light’s eyes, even if you don’t know that…”
“Jared!” Another blow sent Jared to the floor. His hand scrapped against the hard cobblestone floor. They ripped open and oozed blood.
Acheron stood over him. “…Why did you ignore me? Speak.”
“I…I didn’t…I didn’t hear…”
“Oh, you didn’t now?” Acheron raised an eyebrow. “Then what had you so distracted?”
Jared looked down at the floor. “And The Light has a plan for you that you don’t know yet.”
“A man…a man said something to me.”
Acheron raised an eyebrow. “Oh?”
“He…he said he wouldn’t kill me. He…he said he was…was once like…like me…and someone…he called him The Light free…freed him. He said I’m worth something…and that I can…can be free too.”
Acheron’s hard slap came without warning.
The sound resonated off the stone walls.
“You will not leave here. You will not be freed. I have a plan, you are a part of it, and no one, nothing, not even The Light will stop me. You are worthless, Jared, and no one on Earth or above or below cares one whit whether you live or die. Understand!?”
Acheron slapped him again.
Against Jared’s own will, a whimper escaped. Weakling, the voices in his head snickered.
“Answer. Me.”
‘Haha, look now, Jared. You have earned yourself more pain.’
Jared couldn’t forget how the voices had screamed as the man stood above him. Couldn’t forget how…bright…alive…the man with the scar’s face had been. Even his eyes…were bright. Alive.
“Understand!?” Acheron yelled, giving Jared three hard slaps.
“…Under…understood.”
Acheron gripped Jared’s collar, tightening it. Jared gasped as he felt it almost choke him. “Good. Now, you will live with a tightened collar. Maybe that will remind you to behave. If not, well…” Acheron smiled, “we might just have to get the whip back out.”
He let go and stepped away, disappearing into the darkness.
Jared sucked in a huge breath of air. The voices in his head snickered, laughed, mocked, and taunted.
With trembling hands, he grabbed the brush.
Freedom….Worth…Such foolish dreams.

September 13, 2022 at 6:08 pm #117347Ok, first off,this is a wonderful idea, and I will be joining in. Literally, this is fantastic!
That scene is sooo interesting. I like Ara, Ganesh, and her parents. (And sympathize with her. Oh, life is so awkward at times…)
She calls her father אבא? I love it!
@freedomwriter76
I really enjoyed your scene too! Alwin and Jared should totally be in a RP together. They’d have some interesting conversations for sure!
You have listened to fears, child. Come, let me breathe on you... Are you brave again? -Aslan
September 13, 2022 at 6:36 pm #117348YALL I HAD GRIMM’s WHOLE BACKSTORY ALMOST COMPLETELY WRITTEN UP AND LOST IT
I AM LITERALLY SO MAD

#ProtectSebSeptember 13, 2022 at 6:41 pm #117349I am not retyping all of that…sigh…ur gonna have to get the condensed version….tho it’s not near as dramatic or heart wrenching…
Long story short-
Grimm loses his baby sister Mirella. She’s killed in a field of flowers as a child, because she was mute and deaf (thus the new Alpha Queen who had set up a horrid, twisted system, deems her an Omega, and she’s been sentenced to death) she’s actually killed by her own pack, who have become an army now for their new Alpha Queen (another person Grimm grew up with) which only makes things worse.
Grimm was able to save another child, named Conan a boy who is blind and mute, his sister’s best friend, and while he would never trade Conan’s life, he feels guilty for not being able to rescue Miri.
He lives with this for…a long time.
He actually Carries her locket in his belt loop to remember her (and his inability to save her 😭)
