Her story is not just crimson pomegranates, all of the splendour of spring bends her will. But the floral maiden also sends shudders of fear with one delicate footstep through all of hell.
She reigns over the birth of flowers and gentle beings, raises baby birds in her lap, and with fawns she plays.
She reigns over demons and demise alike and before her fury, even death himself pales.

divinity will stain your fingers and mouth like a pomegranate. it will swallow you whole and spit you out, wine-dark and and wanting. you will reach for it again and again, greedy human fingers clutching everything you can reach. the divine will curl its way through your veins and take you over, and it will leave you quietly.

if you asked me now who i am, the only answer i could give with any certainty would be my name. for the rest: my loves, my hates, down to even my deepest desires, i can no longer say whether these emotions are my own, or are stolen from those i once so desperately wished to be.

my anxious heart is eating up my body, eating up my nerves, eating up my brain. i feel this poison slowly filling my veins, every particle becoming slowly tainted… i am never ever calm fora instant.

i think you lost all interest in the world. you were disappointed and discouraged, and lost interest in everything. so you abandoned your physical body. you went to a world apart and you’re living a different kind of life there.
