Asterid March, who falls in love with a Seam boy at the age of 16.
Asterid March, who watches her best friend die in Haymitch's arms.
Asterid Everdeen, who moves down to the Seam because who needs money when they have love? Asterid Everdeen, who loses both of her parents at an unknown point. Asterid Everdeen, whose first baby is the spitting image of Burdock.
Asterid Everdeen, who can't believe her husband is stupid enough to teach their daughters that Hanging Tree song, and they were making nooses, Burdock! And more miners die on her table, and more children starve across the Seam.
Asterid Everdeen, who buries her husband, because anything good in the world is taken by the Capitol. Asterid Everdeen, who is aware that her children are starving like every other Seam child, and it's her fault. Because if she hadn't married Burdock, if she hadn't done the foolish thing and risked it all for love, then they'd be safe. And tesserae's an option, but then they'll end up like Maysilee. The mines always need workers, but then they'll end up like Burdock. The Head Peacekeeper stops the whippings, but has a habit of taking girls into his bed.
Asterid Everdeen, who watches her older daughter take the place of her younger one. Who watches her older daughter risk it all for love. Who remembers what happened to the Abernathys. Who pivots when the media asks who Gale is. Who sends food into the Seam wherever she can. Asterid Everdeen, who can feel the noose getting tighter.
Asterid Everdeen, who sees more of herself in Alma Coin than she'd care to admit, who watches another man from the Capitol turn her daughter into a symbol, who screams when Prim sneaks off to the Capitol and then follows her.
Asterid Everdeen, who cannot leave Katniss's side in the hospital and then cannot be near her because if Asterid stops moving, she will fall into the abyss again.
Asterid Everdeen, who cannot go home because there is no home to return to. Asterid Everdeen, who starts the first district hospital. Asterid Everdeen, who cries with Katniss when her older daughter is ready to talk.
Asterid Everdeen, who heard Maysilee whisper, "Nothing you can take from me was ever worth keeping," and then the Capitol took everything she had.
