I was Penellaphe of Castle Teerman, Kin of the Balfours, and the Queen’s favorite. I was the Maiden. Chosen.
I tried to prenounce Penellaphe at several times but my tongue literally tied. Interesting and compelling choice for heroine name. Chosen part intrigued me. Let's move on to see what makes our heroine so special!

“My Dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover.
-Falsely yours”

“If the past could be changed,
it would not exist.
If the future could be stopped,
it would not survive.
If the present could be avoided,
it would not prevail.
Time is everyone’s acquaintance,
life is everyone’s friend,
death is everyone’s enemy,
and existence is everyone’s soulmate.”
