From the moment she was born, Qwella had the gift of super hearing. Or a curse as she called it. She had to wear earmuffs at all times. She was terrified of crowds and the overwhelming number of voices she was forced to hear. But one voice stood out to her. It was of a boy singing. He sang sadly, as if crying for help. She couldn't pinpoint where exactly she heard this voice from, until she visited the Pit of Panah. It was the day of Coronation for King Merno, the late King Varallisuus' only son. It was also the day Qwella's life would change forever. ************************************ This story is written for ONC 2023. Prompt #38 used.
