LadyXepherr

Oriana Penrose expected her death to be less violent.

She imagined her death to be rather mundane, given her current situation. She saw herself growing as wrinkled as a raisin baked in the hot sun, and as old as the grandfather clock her master kept in his study. She could have seen herself resting her dusty, old bones for the final time on the stone bench in the garden, after a long day of sweeping and dusting the lady’s bedroom.

In other instances, she could have seen herself perishing in a carriage accident, on her way to retrieve a hand tailored coat for the lady’s daughter. Or perhaps in a hunting accident, being mistaken for a docile deer by the master’s son. In a less mundane senario, she could have even seen herself bursting her head open like a grape against the marble flooring of the dance hall while mopping it.

Instead, she was gifted her ultimate demise by impalement.

Perhaps it was fortunate, or unfortunate, the man in the red coat found her. Does Oriana deserve a second chance at life? Or, is she destined to rest six feet under ground for eternity?
