The Black Sky Pirate Laughs Beneath the Moon. The Crimson Mage Howls at the Stars (41)

★ Anastasia ★

——What an ill-omened child. How could one such as this have been born into our High Elf royal family?

——Oh, do not cry. What if those tears are impure?

She was not even allowed to cry.

Even though she could not speak, she could still shed tears in silence. And yet Anastasia's father, mother, and siblings would not even allow her to cry.

(This person understood every bit of what I felt, even though I could not speak.)

"We don't know what she's thinking." "It's eerie that she is this unsettling simply because she can't speak." "She must surely resent us." ——After having these heartless words hurled at her, Anastasia gradually closed off her heart.

A High Elf who could not speak had no value in the Elven Forest.

If that was the case, then her own feelings had no value either.

(Could this be a miracle?)...
