Vld Lotor - Blog Posts
Has this been done yet? And why does he have such gorgeous hair!!!!!
Prince Lotor
If you want to repost/reblog, please give me credit! Thank you!
Introducing Lotem! The Defenders of Tomorrow’s Lotor. Founder of the Spears of Serta (Blades of Mamora) He was an experiment of the Higuna/Galra before he escaped. I was so excited for the Defenders of Tomorrow AU but I didn’t see any Lotor’s yet so I made my own. Feel free to use him but please credit me as the creator. And tag me your works with him too! 😁All rights reserved.
Been developing my Voltron/Wings of Fire AU some more and finally came up with some more designs
Started getting lazy after Allura, but I managed to fit most the characters I wanted to design before my hand got tired.
Since the paladins are phyrrian dragons, it made sense for the aliens to be pantalan dragons to me because they’re on a different continent n stuff.
Allura and Coran are both silkwings and also the supposed last of their kind
Zarkon is a beetlewing, they’re canonically extinct but he’s like a gajillion years old so I think him being an extinct dragon race is pretty fitting. Haggar is a silkwing but it’s not very apparent with her hood, so most dragons assume she’s a hivewing (the galra are hivewings in this AU). Lotor is a hive and or beetle/silk hybrid, he’s just a silly guy fr.
oof ok...um no one has entered...is there something wrong? :’(
✨⭐️✨CONTEST TIME!!!!!✨⭐️✨
YES! You heard it here folks! Its that time of year again, Golden Madness’s 2nd anniversary is right around the corner, so you know what that means!
But instead of a novel copy of Golden Madness, i will be giving away a leather-bound sketchbook with some special GM extras! Extra’s that may or may not include answering some of long held questions the winners have about GM
There will be one sketchbook for my more Instagram-involved followers and one for a lucky person here on Tumblr! Each sketch book comes with thick paper, leather-bound covers, and a locking mechanism in the front! They’re small and compact enough to fit in your purse or backpack for easy, on the go sketching!
The rules are as follows:
Must be following
Find any song used in GM (EXCEPT the ones in Chapter 12 and 15)
Find the movie that song is from (I’ll post them under ‘Read More’)
Repost/Reblog this picture with one of the following
Your review of that movie
A guess as to why I used that song
What other song from those movies would you like to see in GM and why
Tag me just to be sure!
Feel free to ask me any questions for clarification!
And that’s it! Most detailed/in-depth answer wins! Contest will run from April 24th to May 24th to give y'all a full month to tackle this challenge! 😉
So the reason as to why I decided to go with this challenge in particular is because i wanted to show y’all my main inspirations for GM i.e Bollywood and my culture. And while i know both things aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, my hope for this contest is just to expose everyone to different culture as well as what runs through my head when I sit down to write GM.
Once again, I’d like to thank everyone for supporting GM over the two years this fic has been alive and kicking. I really, truly could not have done any of this without y’all, and i’m so thankful to have met so many amazing people via this crazy little idea of mine. So, again, thank you all from the bottom of my heart!😘❤️
Love,
potentiala

Hey guys!
Yes, i am not dead. But Sweet Baby Jesus Do I Wish I Was
I am, in fact, in college. So GM has had to take a bit of a back seat so that i can focus better on my education.
My betas are also in college and the last thing i want to do is compromise their success at the professional level, so the writing and reviewing process will take a great deal longer from now on. For that, i apologize but must, once again, remind you that college has always been my focus so please respect that as best you can.
BUT GOOD NEWS!
Thanks to continued commitment from my Betas, parts of Chapter 20 have been finalized and will, therefore, be posted as my betas finish them.
However, in the midst of all these hiatuses, remember the fact my number one goal to give y'all quality work over a large quantity of rushed, sub-par work, so please respect that.
All that being said, thank you for reading and keeping up with GM despite the long waits!

GM Moodboard 10: Chapter 12: Faithful to a Fault, But Whose?
“Sifair smiled again, Stepping closer to the Blue Paladin. Wrapping her arms around him in the best hug Lance had ever received since joining this quiznacking space war. She was warm and soft all around him. Like a huge mother bear. You know that she was terrifyingly deadly, but, at the same time, she's one of the best things in the world to have at your side.
Lance wanted to cry.
"Even if no one admits that they value you, I always will. Come to me anytime, and I'll talk your ears off about how much I appreciate all that you've done Dearest. You helped saved the universe love! And...more importantly, you gave me back my son."
Lance straight up cried.”

Chapter Song: Vitamin String Quartet - Rockabye
GM Moodboard 9 - Chapter 11: Even Before We Got To Touch
“ The image broke her in some vital way. Shattered what little remained of her resolve. Werual kicked her in the stomach with his good leg. Yanking her back to her feet with his remaining arm without so much as an ounce of resistance. Sifair's candlelight eyes burning against the bloodied dirt floor underneath her.
Her son.
Her laughing baby boy she had to leave. What would her kit think? If he saw just how vicious a creature his mother was? He would have the same look in his eyes, wouldn't he? He'd be that terrified of her, right? Sifair tried to look back at the child she had freighted. To apologize. To beg forgiveness.
To comfort.”

GIVEAWAY WINNER!!!!! 😘❤️💝🎉✨🎉✨✨✨✨
CONGRATULATIONS TO @magicalgirlspotlight !!!!! It was really difficult decision to make and, as those around me will confess, one I was constantly thinking of.
Nevertheless, I was incredibly touched by Spotlight’s words and can’t help but smile at in awe of how far we’ve come in this tiny little community :’)
So thank you, Spotlight, for your love and support, and thank you @olkarianprincess , @diamondheart31 , @grbgcn2 , and @hessonite-angel-art (seriously, why does it never work with your other account???)
I’ve met so many wonderful, beautiful friends along the way and I cannot put into words how thankful I am to have you all in my life. It’s been a year since this monster of a fic has came out, but, for some reason, it feels longer than that.
Maybe that’s becuase updates take forever?
Maybe that’s because I'm constantly going back and forth on GM?
Or maybe, and most likely, it’s because of the amazing people I’ve met along the way who have clicked with me in such a way that it seems as though we’ve known each other for much longer.
None of this would’ve been possible with you all!
With all my Love,
potential.a
Honorable Mentions! 😘❤️✨💖🎉✨✨✨
Wow, this was a really tough decision! I was absolutely floored by everyone’s entries and I still cannot believe it’s been an entire year of just being blown away by y’alls love and support <3
That being said, @olkarianprincess , @diamondheart31 , @grbgcn2 , and @hessonite-angel-art (idk why Tumblr never lets me @ your other acct???) Had absolutely beautiful entires that made me grin ear to ear with every word.
The fact that I’ve, somehow, made your days better with my sporadic updates unto this single Shidge fanfic is beyond me . Thank you for all your wonderful words and even lovelier soupport and love for this past year.
And, white I’m sorry that I cannot offer you the full prize - I can and will say that this won’t be your only chance at a novel copy of GM!

GM Moodboard 8: Chapter 10: A Version of the Truth
“Sifair…Her full title was Sentinel Elite Sifairias Kerain Shaanti…” Talking a deep breath, Kolivan put his Blades at ease with a wave of his hand. Taking a seat a ways away from Matt.
Head in his hands.
“She was our previous leader. I thought…I thought she was dead.”
===
Chapter Song: The Killers - Miss Atomic Bomb
GM Moodboards 7 - Chapter 7: Beloved, You Are
“Lotor couldn’t breathe.
It was impossible. No woman could have…his thoughts trailed off. Remembering the young girl’s face. The startling beauty of her tears. The soft, vulnerable look she gave him.
If only for a moment.
She truly was beautiful. Beautiful in a way none of his other women were. Beautiful in a way they all aspired to be. Lush lips and a girlish, soft face. Lashes long and feathery against a dotted cheek. He had held her.
Felt her.”

GM Moodboard 6 - Chapter 6: Warm As The Color Green
“She was beautiful.
Allura watched as Pidge smiled. The young girl's smile blooming on her face in such a way that she radiated joy and made the whole room bright and warm. A lovely smile Allura had never seen anyone make, let alone sarcastic, bitting Pidge. Immediately, Allura felt a strong surge of pride. She was the one that brought out this inner beauty. Wait a tick! The Altean Princess suddenly had a very, very amazing idea.
"We're not done yet!"
===
Chapter Song: Gabrielle Aplin - Night Bus
GM Moodboard 5 - Chapter 5: Lick Your Wounds
“To Pidge, Allura had no reason to envy her. Pidge wasn't a princess nor the spearhead for the Defenders of the Universe. Pidge wasn't all charm and regality nor was she as lovely as Allura. She was just a small, stubborn cog in the system.
Nothing special.
But Allura? She was special, amazing at every given opportunity. She was a freaking alien princess for God's sake. Not only that, she had some sort of weird Altean magic mumbo jumbo abilities. She single handedly organizes all their diplomatic dealings. Needless to say, Allura was fucking amazing. Pidge wasn't.”
===
Chapter Song: The Script - Breakeven
GM Moodboard 4 - Chapter 4: A Mother’s Legacy
“The Galran female winced as her mind accidentally brought Laila back into her thoughts. Shiro began shaking with silent sobs, like a child crying after getting scared by a monster. Sifair just held him. Letting him release all his tears onto her shoulder.
Laila was better at this.
When Sifair had crashed to the ground on her hover bikes, Laila was there to heal the wounds and hold her through the tears. When Sifair had killed legions of creatures who threaten the old Empire, Leila was there to help her keep her resolve. But not anymore. Laila's been dead for thousands of years. Killed by Altean hate and prejudice. Burned like the Witch they called her. Now, as Sifiar held the weeping Black Paladin of Voltron, they lived in a world without Laila. A world without the sane creature she made Zarkon. A world without her warmth.
A world without her golden eyes.”
===
Chapter Song: He is We - Kiss it Better
GM Moodboards 3: Fire in my Heart
“Truthfully, Lance was here to understand Keith. But not as a leader. Truthfully, Lance couldn't care less that Keith was leading them now. Because who would want Lance as a leader anyway? Perks of being a seventh wheel, he thought bitterly.
No.
Lance was here for love.
Deny it as he might. Lance couldn't refuse the gravitational pull that slingshots him to Keith every time they so much as see each other. Not anymore, anyway. Lance could even pin-point the exact moment he realized his budding feelings.”
===
Chapter Song: dodie - Sick of Losing Soulmates
GM Moodboards 2 - Chapter 2: Heat Stroke
“Matt's heart twisted.
He missed his family. He missed his dad's corny jokes. His mother's constant humming. His sister's...well, he missed everything about Katie. He missed their fights over cereal. Their walks home from the Garrison. Their way of understanding each other in a way no one ever could.
Matt squeezed his eyes shut.
She was only 14 when he left on that damned mission. She must be at least 16 or, God forbid, 18. He missed her whole life. Her whole life that was supposed to be filled with her breaking every boundary and obstacle that stood in her way because she was Katherine Goddamn Annalise Holt and the world was her's for the taking.
Or, that's how it should've been.”
===
Chapter Song: Fall Out Boy - Jet Pack Blues
GM Moodboard 1 - Chapter 1: Songs in the Field
“His heart pumped faster.
Blood started spurting out faster out of his chest as a disastrous consequence. But the man didn’t care. He never had cared for consequences.
Not when it came to her.
Her voice, so painfully familiar and free of pain, suddenly made him want for Death. So then, at the very least, he could be with her once more. His weary eyes, scoured the endless field of flowers like a man starved.
And starved he was.
Just once, he wanted to see her just once more. And…he did. His eyes clung to her in the distance as they once did so long ago. The man let out a breath he held in for thousands of years.
There she was.”
===
Chapter song: Lana Del Rey - Young and Beautiful
Bloody Beloved
So...I just watched Padmaavati, and it was AMAZING. The songs, the costumes, the acting OH MY.
But back to the songs.
One, in particular, was very reminiscent of a ship I adore. So @lotidge , this one is for you.
Introducing a horribly wonderful vision I had for Padmaavati’s “Kalibali” with a Lotidge spin on it. Mainly because this song is amazing and because I really want to do an unhinged Lotor. RIP.
Think of this set in a desert/sharan sort of backdrop with Lotor as this Alexander The Great sort of guy and Pidge is sort of like Helen of Troy??? If that makes sense???
(Khalibali Video Song) (Original English Lyrics For Khalibali)
Also I vote to add this song, despite being in another language, to any potential Lotigde Song Lists/Playlists
Ah.
This was nice. This was wonderful. Oh...it wouldn’t take long now. Soon, he’d own all the world. Soon, his Empire would reign supreme. Soon, he’d have that King’s head implied unto a stick.
Soon he’d take his wife as his own.
Oh, that damned King only allowed him a glimpse of his Queen. And through a mirror no less! But by that Stars that was enough.
Enough to start a war.
That damn information had been right. King Shiro’s new wife was indeed a heaven-sent beauty. Oh! The glimpse of her was still fresh in his mind.
Cutting him deeper than any wound.
Emperor Lotor’s head swam with her visage as he marched toward his troops. Each eager and bloodthirsty for war.
For women.
But out of all the woman Lotor had in his harem, out of all the beauties he had ravaged, none could ever come close to her.
To Queen Katherine.
So deadly that loveliness was! So precious! Those intoxicating eyes...Lotor wanted it. And everything that was precious in this world...
Lotor must possess.
He stood, surrounded by his men, all of them dressed in ornate silver plates of armor. Foam and shrieks hailing from each of their mouths. Lotor laughed, excitement flooding through his veins. Lotor laughed, calling his men to battle. Lotor laughed, desire filling his heart.
A war cry filling his throat.
“Oh Stars! He is like a warlord!” His army chanted, thumping their breastplates with their hands. Lotor still laughing as their chanting grew louder and louder. The army beginning to circle their commander
“Oh Stars! He is like a warlord!” Lotor ran his hands down his face, his skin felt feverish. His head spun, as if caught up within a dream. The heavy black cloth of his clothes, embroidered with silver, suddenly felt stifling. He felt waek and warm, hot and light all at once. Still, he pictured that Queen.
The flash of her golden eyes.
“Oh Stars! His heart is like a demon!” He had heard many tales about her. About the bloody, golden Queen who had sent many a man screaming into death.
Like a Goddess of War’s incarnate.
“Oh Stars! His heart is like a demon!” Lotor laughed once more. A demon! Yes! He’d become a demon once that Queen came to him.
Once he claimed her as his own.
“Oh Stars! He is like a warlord!” The chanting grew frenzied and Lotor’s army stated thumping their swords against the floor in tandem with the beatings of their breasts. The sound of thousands of weapons clashing together made Lotor sway to the beat.
Half-possessed.
“Oh Stars! His heart is like a demon!” Only with her...Only with that woman by his side could Lotor truly own the entire world. The list of the Golden Queen’s conquests no small feat. Oh! To have a woman like that by your side!
She was wasted on Shiro!
“OH STARS! OH STARS!” The army was screaming now. Foam and spit flying from their mouths rabidly as Lotor rocked back and forth. Head tilting back, eyes falling shut.
Lotor let out a breath.
“O Beloved...” Lotor cried, running his palms along his neck, over his face, and into his hair.
Mind entranced within his dream.
“O Beloved...” That Katherine...Katherine...covered in blood at his side. His mouth on her neck, lapping at the red rivets.
Her husband’s blood on his fingers.
“O dear, bloody heart!” Lotor screamed, springing alive. Ripping his clawed fingers from his silver-white hair. Eyes wide and mad.
Mad with love.
“Ever since I sought your crown of love...” Looking at his army, Lotor raised his arms, greeting the horde of purple-furred soldiers. Their circling of their Emperor never stopping. The clanging of their weapons never ceasing. Lotor’s blood was on fire.
She was coming!
“I’ve it let go!” He howled, rushing as the nearest man and throwing him to floor to take his space amongst the circling army. The war chant growing loud er and louder Echoing throughout the camp. Gripping at the embroidery on his chest, Lotor sunk his own claws into the skin underneath.
Lips pulling back into a snarl.
“I have no care in my heart! I’ve let it go!” Lotor roared as he thumped his own chest, claws and all. His fangs glinting in the low firelight all around them. Circling around and around as the soldiers chanted with him.
Bloodlust rising.
“My care for this world is gone! I’ve let it go!” The Emperor spun, grabbing the nearest warrior’s shoulders and pulling them closer until their foreheads collided.
Blooding trickling between then.
But neither men cared. Both men just kept howling, spinning around to make their war-hungry hearts beat. Lotor’s eyes bright with blue fire.
Bright with desire.
“I’ve let it go!” It was, after all, a grave wrong to claim another’s wife, but the Galran Empire didn’t care for wrongs.
Just their conquests.
And, with Queen Katherine coming to Daibazaal to save her husband, the Galran Empire will have claimed its greatest conquest.
The Golden Queen.
Known far and wide for both her beauty and deadly intelligence, she had lead her husband’s kingdom into great and fearsome success. Indeed, the small woman hailing from a insignificant background had quickly become one of the most powerful rulers in the world.
Making a King out of her husband.
A former veteran of war who could hold his own in a fight, the two were said to be inseparable. Impossible to touch between the King’s battle prowess and the Queen’s merciless battle strategy.
But there is a first time for everything.
“Ever since I sought your crown of love...” Releasing the solider, Lotor spun away. His body light and unfocused.
“I’ve let it go!”
“I have no care in my heart! I’ve let it go!” Lotor was howling now, spinning around and around. His arms gripping at his own shoulders. The claws digging into his skin doing nothing to dampen his excitement.
Only adding to his ecstasy.
“O our Lord! O our Emperor!” Haha! They were chanting again. Swearing, not the Stars, but to him! As they should!
For even the Stars feared him.
“Let him ravage! Let him pillage!”
“Let him claim that Golden Queen!” Ah! His army was jumping slamming theirs fists unto their thighs in a maddened frenzy.
All while Lotor could only laugh.
This! This was what he had been waiting for! That damn King got too cocky with that woman by his side. And now look at him! She had to come to save him!
She was giving herself to Lotor!
The army screamed and shrieked. Yellowed fangs flashing. Clawed hands cutting into palms as the Galran shoulders beat their legs in excitement. Having caught the scent of blood.
Of victory.
“Let him claim that Golden Queen!”
“My heart is now in tatters because of you...” Lotor pulled a lagging solider close by his hair, letting him rest his head unto his Emperor’s shoulder. The smaller Galra looking up at his Emperor half in respect.
And half in fear.
“The light of sleep has now abandoned me...” Lotor whispered, tender to the point of cruelty. The hand in thsmall Galran’s hair tightening as Lotor yanked his head back.
Slicing his throat.
“My heart is now in tatters because of you...” The Galran Emperor called out as he threw the soldier’s body to the side.
The army never stopping.
Switching form pounding their legs, to circling round their Emperor once more. Throwing one foot in front of the other in savage stomps as they spun in in circles around Lotor.
Trampling the body completely.
The corpse quickly becoming bloody pulp unto the floor. Bits of brain and eye clinging to the boots of Lotor’s soldiers. But the scent of blood was truly in the air now.
The scent of war.
“The light of sleep has now abandoned me...” Lotor looked to his hands, echoing the chant in a fanged smile. Looked to the rich red blood flowing from his hands, under his claws, and down his arms.
“A new dream has taken shape in my eyes!” The Emperor looked to the wet palms as he raised them to the sky. As if grabbing at a dream.
As if gripping a victory.
“I’ve let it go!”
Lotor laughed.
“I have no care in my heart! I’ve let it go!” Remembering the first and only glimpse he had of Queen Katherine as his army chanted all around him.
Her visage had come to him by a mirror. Lotor having been tricked out of his sole condition of their momentary truce, to see the lovely Golden Queen once and for all. Naturally, Lotor had thought that he’d see her face to face.
But she alluded him still.
Brillant, really had she had done it. Arranging all her palace’s mirrors in such a way that she was reflected in a mirror before him like an illusion, but leagues away from him in reality. Ah! But how sweet a sight she was!
However momentary.
She had been wearing white
A white gown lined with gold and pearls. A white gown that fluttered around her small frame like tendrils of smoke. A white gown that sparked in the mirror’s borrowed light.
A white gown that begged to be dyed red.
“My care for this world is gone! I’ve let it go!” Lotor had gone past swaying back and forth. Now, his whole body seemed to convulse. Twisting in and out of view between his spining rings of of soldiers.
Contorting all the while.
“I’ve let it go!” But, just like that, Lotor stopped moving altogether. The suddenness making the Galran Army cease their war cries and draw closer to their Emperor.
“I’ve conquered all the world...” Lotor whispered, looking up at the stars above them. Hands raised, bloody palms up, as if in prayer. The Emperor’s yellow-blue eyes soft and glazed.
Lost.
“But seeing you, I stopped.” Fluttering his eyes closed, Lotor raised his hands higher. The warmth of the soldier’s blood just beginning to cool, hardening into the worn lines of the Emperor’s hands.
“In your wake...”
Lotor smeared his face with blood.
“Even the skies come down to bow before you!” His breathing now erratic. His palms running down from the top of his forehead to the edge of his jaw, coloring him red with the soldier’s blood. Oh. Oh, he wanted her.
He wanted Katherine.
“Oh let me read the hymn of your love!” Lotor lunged out with a savage cry, hooking his arms around the shoulder of two of his men. Dragging them back the dance, the Galran army springing back into their war chant.
“Oh let me drown in that religion of love!” Throwing his head back, Lotor let out a vicious howl. Beastly and primal in every way. Envisioning Katherine in the aftermath of her husband’s death. Covered in Shiro’s blood as Lotor dragged to his chambers to claim her. Oh!
He couldn’t wait!
“Now you’ve become owner to my heart!” What would her skin feel like, he wondered? What luxury that pale, freckled skin would be against go own flesh! Her short, sunset hair gripped in his hands! The soft, gentle curves of her body flayed open by his claws.
“I’ve it let go!”
“I have no care in my heart! I’ve let it go!” Taking the jaws of the two soliders’ into his hands, Lotor slammed them onto the ground. Into the bloody pulp the was the first solider. But the two soon rose.
Colored in blood, cheering all the while.
Rejoining the ranks of Lotor’s army easily as the Galran Emperor snapped his neck back into place. Head light and eyes wide and frenzied.
Excitement singing in his veins.
“My care for this world is gone! I’ve let it go!” The Emperor was screaming now, howling above the chanting shrieks of his army. She was coming!
Coming to him!
“I’ve let it go!”
“I’ve it let go, O Beloved!” Arm spread wide, Lotor spun around. Laughing in triumph.
In victory.
“I’ve it let go, my Beloved!” Was he still spinning? Or was it all still in his head? Who cared? Lotor was somewhere else. Somewhere high above this place.
Somewhere with Katherine.
“I’ve it let go, my dearest, bloody heart!” With one last blood-curtleing scream, Lotor let his army take over the war chant. So close, he was so close to victory.
To the Golden Queen.
To the conquests the two would achieve. The blood on his face had long since dried, tightening the Emperor’s cold purple skin.
It felt wonderful
“Oh Stars! He is like a warlord!” The Galran Emperor quickly threw himself into his army’s frenzy. Howling and spinning and pounding at his chest.
Lotor laughed.
Fangs flashing and head thrown back. The glint of his army’s weapons sparking and flashing all around him.
“Oh Stars! His heart is like a demon!” Lotor grabbed another soldier to slam their foreheads together as they all reopened the earlier wound. Fresh blood filling the air once more.
Intoxicating them all.
“OH STARS! OH STARS!” They broke apart, Lotor’s own blood mixing with the trembled soldier’s on his face. The Emperor felt free, uninhibited and wild. He was invincible. He was murderous.
He was victorious.
“Oh Stars! His heart is like a demon!” The army grew even more crazed, dispersing to ravage the tents around them, as if pillaging a village and not their own camp.
“Oh Stars! He is like a warlord!” Slashing at their own tents, the firelight of nearby touches seeming to grow even higher.
Hungrier.
“OH STARS!” In the height of his celebration, Lotor was no longer anything resembling a man. He was beast. Bread and fed in war.
Arrows sailed through the air.
In the first round, only two hit their mark. One behind Lotor’s left shoulder, the other just above his right hip. But still, Lotor stood
Still, he laughed.
The second round of arrows were more accurate. Three more arrows finding a poisoned home in Lotor’s body. At this, Lotor fell to his knees.
But no lower.
“OH STARS!” The army still raged all around him, too enveloped with their lust for destruction to assist their leader.
But Lotor didn’t need it.
The Emperor looked behind him, silver strands of moonlit hair slipping off a blooded shoulder with the movement. Finding the shooter, the culprit fluttering in and out of view between the sharp shadows of his soldiers. And, for the life of him, Lotro wished he could say that he was surprised. The shooter no one but Axca.
His first wife.
Still, Lotor never stopped laughing.
“I’VE LET IT ALL GO!”
IT’S FINALLY HERE!
So sorry for the huge gape in between chapters, but college applications aren’t easy.
Still, thank you all so much for sticking around this long and I hope you enjoy this new chapter!
With love,
Potentiala

Narti Week 2017 - Day 3: Memories
===
The earliest memory Narti had was far from pleasant.
A voice belonging to a woman ,who she would later learn was Grand Witch Haggar, was scolding her. For what, the female Galra could not remember. She did, however, remember being struck.
Blood flowing from her face.
She had been so young then. Unable and unused to living in a world without sight and speech. Terrified of the handicaps she had, seemingly, been born with.
The Witch used that to her advantage.
Narti remembered the nails on that horrid woman's gnarled hands. Filed like serrated knives, those nails had pressed into Narti's young face. Nearly, but not quite, drawing blood as the Witch pulled their heads close together The smell of rot on the Witch too strong for Narti's heightened sense of smell, and the girl gagged. Desperate for cleaner air.
Unintentionally pushing the nails deeper into her skin.
“Little Beast!” The Grand Witch had hissed. Her scent like toxin and metal. The female Galra frantic to get away from the warm, rotten breath and sharp hands, but much too frightened to even move.
Much less run.
“Never forget you cost your mother her life, you wretched thing! You killed the only creature who could ever love you. Remember that the next time you dare disobey.”
Narti could only do as she was told.
She remembered.
