Author's note: POV changed to Nyx
Unlike most of the other Awakeners who came to the Abandoned Land after being chased out of the Main Land, I was born in this accursed land itself.
My mother was a prostitute who got accidentally pregnant, so ever since I became conscious, the only memories of childhood I had were of being abused by my mother—until I finally smashed her head open when I turned five.
It was also the same moment when I first awakened my powers. The chances of someone awakening in the Abandoned Lands were nearly 0.1%, yet I was one of those born from those odd chances.
The first thing I did after getting my powers was change my name. My mother had named me Mistake—that was what that bitch believed I was. I changed my name to Nyx—a beautiful name belonging to the goddess of the night and darkness.
I wanted to be like her, conquer this darkness of the Abandoned Land, leave this place, and find out how the dawn in the Main Land felt.
