Imagine a life where you are told, from as far back as you can remember, what your destiny is. What your job is. You have a duty, a burden, that you alone must carry out. And even worse, you don’t have a choice. From day one you have been trained, molded, and sculpted into the image of perfection that you have been told that you had to be. Cutoff from the outside world, set apart from friends and family. Alone… Just you and your destiny.
Now here you are; matured, determined, and ready to do what it is that you have been preparing for your entire life. You begin to take your first steps. And then you discover…
That it had all been a lie.
The man that you had listened to, whose every word you desperately grasped on to, had been lying to you. Just that quickly, you are lost – trapped in a prophecy that you don’t truly understand.
You have never asked questions before, but now, you begin to question everything.
This is Scarlet Hakimi.
