Marian slipped the anemone corsage around her wrist, the filigree mask to her face, and a grin to her lips. This kind of party, you could pretend to be anyone… While the idea swayed her to go, she mostly took it as an opportunity to dress up and show off, her body, maybe, but today it was mostly her natural hair color… Bright colors were normal in Altelia, but Marian liked to think she had the brightest, prettiest hair in town. She hoped it would make her popular among the humans.
