(bella heathcote / cis-female / 24/252 / unmarried) ~ HEAR YE, HEAR YE, (HER) Royal Majesty, (CARYS DAGERAAD) approaches! Didn’t you know that they are the (PRINCESS) of the (DAWN) Court? Word of their (GENTLENESS) and (CHARM) has travelled far, but there are rumours of their (WILFULNESS) and (NAIVETY). 

The flames had come from nowhere, and in an instant, Carys had made a decision. She had lost track of her brothers and her sister in law in the chaos, but was sure she needed to help others get out. There was yelling, and running, and it was easy to get caught up in the midst of it all.

The smoke gathered quickly, and it wasn’t long before Carys’s lungs were burning. Lifting the hem of her dress, she tried to cover her mouth, propriety be damned, but it was soon clear it wasn’t enough. Turning, she tried to find her way to the exit, but between the smoke and flames, Carys wasn’t sure she could tell left from right. She wasn’t sure when she dropped to her knees, but she was desperately trying to crawl her way out. Instead, she found a wall, and tried her best to brace herself against in. Coughs wracked her body as she gasped for air, and her vision was slowly fading...

Then, a figure appeared in the midst of chaos, and Carys wasn’t sure if it had been hours or seconds. She could only desperately hope that they saw her, that they came to her. She tried to speak up, but all that came out were raspy breaths, before she was plunged into more darkness.

After making her rounds, she settled into a corner of the room, feeling a bit of relief to have a moment to breathe. The moment was fleeting though, and her face lit up once more as she was approached. “I do hope you don’t find me rude to be hiding here.”

BIO

(trigger warning for parental drug abuse)

Cary’s childhood was riddled with instability, in large part thanks to her parents preference for getting drunk and high instead of being their to raise their daughter. Neither of them was able to hold down a job for very long, and the family got by largely off government assistance, though there were still more than a few occasions where Carys came home from school to find there was no food in the house or a notice pinned to the front door about one utility or another being cut off. On the rare chance that her parents were coherent, it would usually end in a screaming match either with Carys or at each other. As she got older, she became both self-sufficient and desperate to get out. There were multiple instances where she would run away and be found by police, only to end up placed in foster care for a short while before being returned to her parents. Carys won’t say that the system failed her, but she did have a front row seat to just how faulty it could be. She started working at 16 (after dropping out of high school due to being unable to juggle school and her home life) to make sure she could move out by 18, which is exactly what she did. As much as she would have liked to cut off all contact with her parents, she couldn’t, and still finds herself helping them out from time to time even when she knows that the money she gives them will just go back into their addictions. By 20, she’d obtained her GED and applied to college. She’s currently halfway through a degree in sociology, and is also working towards becoming a certified alcohol and drug counselor. She works as a bartender for the time being, and leads a group therapy meeting for teens affected by substance abuse on the weekends.
