Rethinking my latest Emelan ‘verse read and- Daja.
black and a woman and gay
tall and broad shouldered and flat chested
ridiculed and scolded by her family for her interest in smithing
cast out and denied acknowledgement of her existence by her people after her whole family died in a terrible accident that left her stranded for days
hated by racists and ignorants for being part of the people who cast her out
afraid to forget her culture and insisting on honoring her religion and family while embracing her love of smithing and craftsmanship
stopping an enormous uncontrollable forest fire as a thirteen year old to save a huge group of the people who cast her out and regard her as cursed and dirty and not even alive
using her new magic that is physically a part of her to do something good and having it backfire in her face and being betrayed by someone she trusted and admired
taking pity on the man who betrayed her and murdered so many and making his death painless
creating things like prosthetic legs and hearing aids along with art
finding love and discovering her sexuality and leaving the woman she loves behind because of principle and morals and how much she loves her foster-siblings
Daja Kisubo, the woman whose heart is strong and bright and as big as her whole body
if you don’t love Daja you are 1000% wrong
