History
As Rose
She, initially without a name, was born to a single mother around the year 980 AD. When she was of suitable age, her mother sold her off to a brothel.
At the brothel, she made friends with a girl who called her Rose because of the colour of her eyes. In turn, she came to call the girl Indigo. One day, Indigo suggested they steal as much money as they can and run away. However, when they were out of town, a man on a horse was waiting for them. It was then that it became clear to Rose: Indigo only needed her to carry more money, and never intended to actually take her along. As Indigo was about to kill her, their pursuers caught up with them, forcing Indigo and her man to flee. Rose survived and returned to the brothel.
Several months later, Rose murdered everyone in the brothel and ran away with their gold. Unfortunately for her, she was caught by bandits who robbed her blind. Luckily, she managed to escape them before they sold her off to another brothel. It was then that she decided not to own anything again, only to take things as she needed them.
For a time, Rose settled down with a man who was once a patron of her former brothel. However, she ended up catching a scourge that was going around and he left her. In fact, he plotted to betray her, as there was a bounty out for the one who massacred the brothel. Rather than let him take her, Rose killed him.
Afterwards, Rose found herself wandering from place to place, killing people in order to take their food and sleep in their beds. She had built up a reputation, becoming known as "the witch with eyes of rose." She was eventually caught in June 997 AD, as a hefty bounty was placed on her head.
Rose was dragged off to the bastille, where she was lashed. Then, she was chained up in its square along with five rebels who tried to revolt against the landed lord. One of them, a girl with gouged out eyes and a strong sense of justice, stood out to Rose. They shared a brief conversation where Rose reflected on her empty life, leaving her with zero to show for it.
As the scourage began to take her, Rose cursed the cruel and unjust world. It was then that she saw the flower.
