[Tamriel Kingdom, Alfheim.]
Nerissa quietly touched her ear, unbothered by the world around her.
When she was young, Nerissa used to love taking care of her ears.
Wearing expensive earrings even though they hurt them.
Perhaps it was to impress her glorified fiancé that was the talk of the world or perhaps she just liked it.
Those ears had always been beautiful to look at in her younger days but now….
They look like a riot.
The pores that were made for earrings were now split open, making a hideous cut in her long, beautiful ears.
No matter what she does now, the earrings just slip down.
The irony of the situation was that she felt her own life had become like that.
No matter how much she tried she can't go back to her younger self.
The one with no hideous scars or riot but just a beautiful, loving woman.
Leaving behind a shell that had no love to give.
"I believe everyone of importance is here."
A voice pulled her out of her blank state as she looked up.
