The Brokenly Envious

Insight on yet another of the Five Great Generals mentioned in 'To End the Crusade'

Loud and boisterous, the opposite of her twin,

She longed to be better than even him.

Out matched in speed and wit,

She couldn't out do any of her team.

The medic too smart and witty to boot,

She was the brains of their entire organization.

Though the medic lacked speed,

Her wit and magic were too powerful to ignore.

She wanted it, the power and respect,

She wanted to lead them all.

The fastest female, quick as lightning,

Still fell short to the flames of her passionate twin.

How she hated her brother's wife,

The thieving w***e stole her lover's attentions.

The day her twin saved her, the war was doomed to begin,

For who ever heard of letting fire and ice blend?

 

The death of her twin, her love, and her son,

The medic was the cause of it all!

Mad with grief she nearly killed the medic,

Only to be encased in ice, forever waiting to thaw.

Interesting, I wasn't aware she had a twin, but it makes sense since she was carrying twins, they often run in the family. Well done dear, this was well written and gave me another peek at her life.

She didn't have a twin, her husband did. They'd been seperated at birth for their safety and ran into each other in the future. Theirs scents and features were so similar that they put two and two together. A small hint, at the her husband's twin, she was the wife of the man in the previous poem.

Ah! Gotcha! Separated at birth is a fun dramatic add on. I like it.

[Ashira Macy]

Wow, that is eerie and cool. Wish I had dreams like that, I don't remember mine typically.

[Ashira Macy]

Ick, yeah that does sound awful. I think that is why I stopped dreaming. I used to have very vivid nightmares as a child myself. I was ripped to shreds in a lot of them. Very gory for someone so young. At least it gives you inspiration though, but if they do bother you I might suggest a dream catcher. If you believe in that sort of thing anyway.

They don't bother me anymore, blood, gore and violence have never bothered me. It interests me. I want to learn everything I can about her and her life. The good and the bad. I know her full name, and even the diety that birthed her. I know about the ones who raised her and saved her from her power stealing father who would have killed her to gain hers. Her entire existance was a tragic one, so it is with hope that the rest of the lives she is reborn into are peaceful and happy.

[Ashira Macy]

I certainly hope so. she deserves to be happy for all she has been put through.
