Oh… [She frowns a little, brow furrowed, and shakes her head] No, I don’t want that. I just… Don’t know how to talk to people much.
[She considers a moment before continuing] Where I’m from, girls don’t leave the home until they’re married. And in my village… in my village, twins are considered sacred.
No one talks to us. They’re too pious, or… too afraid. So it was always just me and Yae.
Our mother… Even our mother couldn’t stand that she’d had twins. As soon as she realized, she killed herself. So it was just us and our father. He was the head of the village and the ceremony master, so we had a lot to live up to. Or… Yae did. No one had any expectations for me. I was the younger twin, so all that was expected of me was to die for the village.
You don’t waste too many resources on a cow you raise to slaughter. [There’s no emotion behind this— just a statement of fact.]
