In between the forest trees… A man stood there, holding something covered in a blanket.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7X5xaAzLz
He had a knife in his hand. The metal was stained with blood, as if he had killed someone. There was a hole in the blanket. Dry blood was visible on it.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdwtxGIaL1
Maybe not something… Maybe it was someone. A fragile child.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVCElD972R
The man laid it down on the ground. He stared at it for a bit. He pulled out a withered flower out of his jacket and put it on her. He walked away…46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyMQiz9Ld9
The soft sound of someone walking on snow was heard… Somewhere, the bells rang. Even though the sound didn’t reach it. Nothing reached it. 46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNzNNkUSc3
The snow fell quietly. It surrounded the blanket… It came on top of it. Whatever or whoever was in there would freeze to death. 46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUZhle3W6h
No one was around. No one could see. But it looked like the snow was the only thing that had mercy… A cold breeze passed.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hpXP3mEKq
The world was cruel. The wind was whispering, as if it was trying to not disturb something.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DdywH1l1V
Another bell rang. In a city, somewhere far away… People were begging for money, food or water.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxJB9V0axt
Last night, a blizzard struck a village. The village where the man lived. It was named Gravemire because of the countless amount of gravestones that stood there.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7rqwD8rTo
Almost no one survived. Most of the houses were destroyed. The villagers were dead, but not found.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybndKO0Dtl
A dog passed by with its owner. The dog started barking. He looked at the mound of snow.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLtCDvU5rA
The dog started digging. Further and further. Until he smelled blood. There was a look of horror on the owner’s face.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7FDuHLjK2
He saw a little baby… Tiny. Its skin was almost blue, pale. There was frost on her short eyelashes.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSJ01SWcbL
There was blood on her right eye. It was closed. Her left eye stared at the man. Was she even conscious?46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYI0BUGxrMa
Her eye had a diamond blue color. Not a really stark contrast with the snow. Her nose was as red as a rose.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e74eNXaYK
She couldn’t do anything. Her body shivered. The owner pulled his dog away and ran back. Into the mist… Further, leaving her alone.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm3McUw9tW
Days passed like falling leaves… She didn’t move. She should’ve been dead by now. But was she dead?46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38zZCCyBXG
She didn’t even cry yet. Not like she could. Not when her father had left her out the day she was born. Everyone looked away, disgusted or not even caring.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbGKlzVdBn
She was nothing more than a mere orphan. Everyone left. Without a word. Without a goodbye. Just one thing… A sharp, uncertain look. Then they disappeared.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Fe1WUDTLN
She didn’t remember their faces nor did she remember their voices. Not like she could hear or speak.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡychfJTwQSw
The girl was silent… Unmoving… Unbeknownst of the world. The moon watched her. Still, she didn’t speak. She couldn’t speak…46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJcsH9Pa89
Footsteps approached… Closer and closer... Soft and deliberate in the snow. As if they were expecting someone to be alive.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7fhUoM8Kq
The girl opened her eyes. A woman stood above her. The woman’s brown hair was bound in a braid. She brushed snow off her shoulders. Her eyes were chocolate brown.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRwmxK4NgC
The woman looked old. Not in years, but in pain. She saw the girl and the girl saw her. Yet, no sound was heard.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyRbpe9Tyx
The woman crouched. She touched the girl’s hand, expecting it to be cold. But… It was warm. Unbelievable. She was alive.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzXWXyQxko
The girl’s fingers twitched. The woman had a look of empathy in her eyes. She was the only one who did.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIaLpZzMSW
“You poor thing,” the woman whispered, afraid to hurt the girl. She probably couldn’t move with her battered body.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfqHC11zD7
“So cruel… Which devil decided to leave such a small, fragile person in the cold…?” the woman asked. More to herself, since she wouldn’t get a reply.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUf9IoL6XP
The girl didn’t have a name. She didn’t have a warm place to call ‘home’ nor someone who she belonged to.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwfUoTFS8e
The woman takes her cloak off and wraps it around the girl. Her arms were strong, and she held the child like she was made out of glass. Something a touch itself could break.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQBG6cpLtT
“You’ll stay with me. I do not care whose child you are, I will not let you die here… Just hold on to life a little longer, please…” she pleaded. The woman gazed at the full moon. She smiled.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tHEK9vaOD
“Your name will be… Lunar. Similar to my daughter’s name, Luneth. Remember it, okay? The moon is beautiful, but alone… I think… You’ll be like it,” the woman said, a tear sliding to her chin.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiBj26EGtb
She didn’t know that Lunar couldn’t hear her. Lunar was deaf and mute. A failure to her family, maybe to the world as well. She didn’t know yet.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xeUI65heF
She was being carried away from the grave her father had made for her. She would be taken to a place with walls and a fireplace.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp3a32AFcW
Even if the world would call her strange, she wouldn’t know. Even if someone would try to hurt her, she wouldn’t feel pain. That’s because she already knew how it felt when she was born. She got used to it and called it ‘love’.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXfjNS72BE
Lunar knew what loneliness was. She wouldn’t ask herself who she really was, because deep inside… Something older than her body knew it.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQIJCfVww4
She had been left. Not forgotten. Not hated. Just… Discarded. Without a name. Without a cry. Without her parents.46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiYKWfNWKK
With the snow, falling quietly as always. It was as silent as her… That’s how her life starts.
