Ahem- xD
As requested by xdgirl1001~
Here, we set the scene for Luna's past in the underground! I removed the 'bookmark' chapter that was before this because I noticed the rules said that we can't have a whole chapter as an author's note... SO YUP!
"Today is going to be just like any other ordinary day," I said to myself as I brushed my long, white hair, "I'm going to go to the market place and getting breakfast." Ordinary, right. That's what my life was: ordinary. So, incredibly, excruciatingly, ordinary. If you consider living with the Dorgeshuun ordinary, that is.
I sighed and set my hairbrush on the small table beside my bed. My hair was the only thing that I really had in the dim world I lived in. Zanik, my caretaker, said it was unusual. Unusual was good in this boring life I lived. I was so proud of my hair, in fact, that allowed it to grow until it was nearly a few inches away from the ground. My eyes, too, were unique. They were like two little orbs of obsidian set in my pale, colorless face.
I know I'm not like the other kids. They look nothing like me, they sound nothing like me, and they always call me a human. It's a weird thing to call someone- but no one has ever called me anything different. I guess that's my name, then. I'm Human- the thorn in Zanik's side.
I have only ever lived in the dim world of Dorgesh-Kaan. I've never seen the sky (which Zanik tells me is beautiful). I don't know who my real mother is, but it has been made very clear to me that she is not Zanik. I have never seen another creature similar to me. Zanik tells me there are millions of them above ground, but I would never dream of going there. No one even thinks about the world above our heads. They say it's unsafe. They say it's unclean. They say it's blinding.
I would love to go there, some day. Unfortunately, my place was here; in this city of fake light and horrible food. I thought I would just have to live with it. My thoughts were wrong.
