Summary: Izayoi hears the whispers…
I hear their whispers, their toxic words that fall from viperous tongues. Words meant to cut, meant to spread doubt. I simply hold my head high, proudly displaying the swell of flesh that is a child growing within my womb. They cannot understand the love I share with this unborn child's sire. They know not what real honor is. I am a true hime, and my lord is powerful. Soon he will take me away from this place. Away from these two faced vipers whose honeyed words turn to poisonous barbs once my back is turned.
My child will be different I know that, but they will be exceptional, I am most sure. Me and my lord together will create a loving home for them, they shall never want.
I dream of a happier life to help me through the hard times, but when everything is at its darkest my lord's love is my shield; with it I can deflect the deepest of stings.
