Pretty Thing

By Ignited


She was a pretty thing, born of silk and roses and all the dandy things her father gave her. But she was violent, yes, and she was on the streets now, a ragtag sort of girl-woman. She'd make a name for herself, she would, so she roamed the streets. Have a care, give the girl a pretty bauble. Her name would be revered, and she'd travel in carriages.

For that, she did not have many peers, save for men. Their trinkets, hands.

Gold coins. One, particularly.

Glorious death by hands and dagger.

There would be no talk of her afterwards.
