Lament

"I wish you wouldn’t always argue with me on the human matters, Nereza. You like them too much. Beware the mortal life. They want to take you down with them.”

Nereza is an omen. She sings and warns people of their forecoming demise. Then she sorrowfully mourns their death. No one likes her kind, no one wants them near. No one wants to die. But then she meets this one person. One person who wants to see who she is, not who she has to be. And that might just change everything.
