Aftermath of Catastrophe: Passages #1
Erin Marie White for Adelaide Lessak
Adelaide Lessak is an orphaned teenager who is working for her adoptive parent as a spy. She is going down a dark path as she is slowly learning about her heritage and latent abilities from the man who massacred her entire family except for her brother.
Adelaide has a light English (British) RP accent. Her voice is also quite kept as she barely speaks to people. In some cases she barely gets any sleep as she has become apprehensive about most things and has become anxious for her safety and those she cares about.
“I was given everything on a silver platter. At the time I enjoyed it—didn’t think much of it. But my life was a lie. The things my family did to reach and uphold the status they had were heinous. It’s a sin I will carry with me till I die—that much is true.” (She is remembering a solemn memory of her family.)
“All I have left is my brother—I won’t lose him! If I have to go through the Nines* to gain the strength I need to protect him then so be it! So you’re either going to let me do what I must or you’re an obstacle I will go through.” (She is angrily explaining to her adoptive parent.)
*The Nines is slang for Hell
“Everywhere I go death follows me. The hellfire attached to my name and being will burn this world to ashes. I just hope Adrian* doesn’t see his big sister as the monster she truly is.” (She is lost in thought and thinking about her brother.)
*Adrian is her younger brother
