Severed Fate
A heroic villainess, Corlissa Veronique is an anomaly herself, such a paradox is the best description of her existence.
A pitiful soul forever chained to the bindings of the Villainess, she was a bug in the system, a glitch in society, a defect in the world. Memories of past lives, her own life played on repeat, that was the curse of the Villainess.
Emotions never left her, she felt the suffocation of betrayal time and time again, the burning of hate, the drowning of despair, the delightful yet excruciating taste of love. Each time they turned their backs to her she felt the same emotions each and every time.
It was as if she was just a marionette, obeying commands against her will as if her free-flowing string of fate that connected to her 'happily ever after' was trapped tightly in the grip of other people's hands, stretching and fraying it however they wished.
She vowed to, without fail, fulfil the wishes of the previous villainess who had left the world with unmistakable anguish...and sympathy.
Such empathy...
"You are a person, no matter what you look like or what you do, unless you prove me otherwise I will continue to view you as who you are."
Such compassion...
"I wish you didn't have to suffer, I wish you could've been born into a better world."
Such understanding...
"Let me handle the rest, take a comfortable rest."
Such selflessness...
"I won't let you suffer anymore..."
She truly was such an exemplary hero.
