Her sight was cruelly taken from her in her youth, by people who didn’t understand her power but by crippling her, they only made her stronger. With her sight gone, her other senses sharpened.
She could tell when people are lying by their heartbeats. She could smell people’s emotions such as fear, anxiety, and sadness.
By crippling her, her power was unleashed and all those who were terrified of her abilities suffered in health, in crop failure, and in life.


Very good story telling Yinglan. In few words you’ve said a lot. Thanks for joining in.
