*Note:Anna was raised in a rich household with which Ria, her stepmother, provided maids and tutors for. Anna became rather proficient either making the maids and tutors lives hell, or making them quit.*
I can remember when I was about the age of fifteen, chasing after Tylan, who had my diary. That didnt bother me too much, but I had written that I had a rather large crush on a friend of his. Knowing my brother he would have shown all of his friends and I would've had to beat him half to death. Which wouldn't look good to his friend either, so I chased him until I finally had to take a rest. I stopped outside a door that was cracked ever so slightly. I could hear some of my maids and tutors chatting... About me. I listened in quietly. i could hear one of my maids saying "Oh she's a beautiful young girl if you can get past her attitude to admire her." They all chuckled amongst themselves, then another person spoke. "'er skills with a bow and even a sword are frightful, and have ya seen the way she treats 'er brothers? I'm surprised she's not a man under tha' there dress." They laughed again, and then a shrill little voice spoke up and I knew that she was my personal maid. "I oft' feel for the gel... She be actin' so manly none of the boys talk to 'er 'sept 'er brothers."
I didn't hear much after that. I can't remember if I had walked off or just blacked out. I also cant remember much of what I felt at that exact moment, whether I was angry or sad, or even a mix of both. I later found Tylan surrounded by the other boys and Gallius. I passed them by, and when they spotted me they ran in opposite directions. I didnt much care to chase after them. I think by then I was rather depressed.
((Though I told that story to tell you this one!)) I've proved them wrong. All the maids and tutors that were in that room were wrong. I was losing hope slowly and slowly until I met someone by the name of Storvik. He walked up to me as I was sitting at a corner table in the Pony enjoying the silence, which he didnt break. He sat without making a sound and just drank from his bottle. I finally had to ask who he was and only got the reply "I could ask you the same, Miss."
We've shared the past week together and I would be lying to say that I havent taken a liking to him, and I assume he has taken a liking to me seeing as he pushed me in a lake. Then after wiping the hair from my face he kissed me. I would also be lying to say that he took my first kiss as he was not. Though I do believe I enjoyed his kiss more than the other two... Perhaps because the first two were from people I dislike. The first was stolen from me when I was ten from a brute of a lad, and the second from Antaur, who I absolutely hate with all of my heart. Anyway, I plan to be joining an expedition and happily accompanying me will be Storvik and five other's as we guard a woman searching for artifacts left by her ancestors. I don't know how long we'll be gone or the exact dangers of this trip, but I'll be sure to write it down.
