Over ti, I had annealed a lot of mories to my soul. Countless blessings, jobs, and information had attached to , and I had even had my soul cut in half. It shouldn’t have been too surprising that during that ti when my soul was ripped in two and I had two mories from two different places, then so of those mories wouldn’t be the clearest.
As she announced herself, I started to rember my trip to the Faerie Plains in more detail. I had been trying to avoid the Fey after realizing that they were hostile toward humans. We were hiding in a cave when a group appeared and attacked us. It was a group of escaped slaves, and they were being led to freedom by a Fey. That Fey was this woman. This confused though because she was sympathetic to humans.
“Why are you here?” I asked blatantly. “I thought you wanted to help the human slaves?”
“Help?” She let out a laugh. “Help? You killed my sister and started a rebellion that killed thousands, and you want to speak of help?”
“I had nothing to do with them,” I answered warily.
“You encouraged them!” She pointed a finger hatefully. “The Waterfield Rebellion had just ended. Detri just wanted to live on a farm for the rest of his life. He wanted to have a family and live in peace. Then, you ca along, and you filled him with the idea of a Human King. You told him about the humans here, and a society where humans could live free. He began a new rebellion… one that lasted for two months. The Waterfield Rebellion was a drop in the bucket compared to what you did.”

“Okay… they had the right to be free…” I was trying to think as quickly as possible to de-escalate the situation.
“What do you know of it?” She snarled. “You ca, killed my family in front of , and then started a war. A thousand Fey died, and we had to purge ten tis that many humans to put an end to it.”
“You… killed them?”
Her expression turned haunted for a second, but then she shook her head like she was trying to convince herself of sothing. “You killed them! This was your fault. I was just letting them live free… but you turned them into weapons. You turn the innocent into weapons. I see that hasn’t changed.”
Her eyes flicked to the two girls next to , who quickly dodged behind, hiding their faces.
“I never asked Detri to fight for . What he’s chosen to do…”
“He’s dead!” She snapped, stopping my words. “I… killed him with my own two hands.”
“You… what?”
“I had to… I had to stop it. No one asked him to trust to a peace talk.” She laughed. “He thought I would act fairly and that we would co to peaceful terms, but why would I be fair? How can there be peace between Fey and Humans? Were you fair when you beheaded my sister? You’re a murderer, and every human is a virus. All humans deserve death!”
