Challenge: #49 - The Little Things
It was the little things that made Ursa see the awful truth.
It was the way Azula had loved to smash insects, even as a baby. Those sweet little hands that Ursa had once kissed had become so cruel.
It was the cold way that girl could lie, without a hint of remorse. The emptiness of feeling in her eyes was like looking into a black hole.
It was that hungry ambition, that need to conquer those around her. Azula cared nothing for anyone. She tortured her brother, her friends and the servants around her, and then she would laugh about it.
It was the way that Azula could look into her eyes and say "Mom, I love you" and Ursa knew she was lying. Azula loved nobody but herself.
It was the way she loved bloodshed and suffering, how she reveled in it. Ursa had never known such evil in one so young.
Ursa saw all those little signs and knew she had borne a monster.
AN-I hope we see Ursa again. I liked her.
