Before coming to Tienda, Evie had no castle.
In her childhood, when she was a poor orphan living without parents or a home, let alone a castle.
On an ordinary day full of ups and downs, a deeply hooded astrologer asked,
“Evie, what kind of person do you want to become?”
At the sudden question, young Evie stared sharply at the astrologer and clicked her tongue.
“People spill coffee over words like that, don’t they?”
Evie said that and looked askance at the shabby astrologer sitting on a makeshift stall.
Sure enough, Evie was all messed up, even dripping coffee at that moment. The handkerchief the astrologer had lent her was already soggy with blood.
That day, at the mere age of twelve, Evie had been severely beaten by the back alley thugs. It was her fault for dodging and not paying the extortion money.
So, when Evie grumbled with an uncomfortable face, the astrologer awkwardly excused himself.
“People often make new resolutions when they come back from the dead, don’t they?”
“Rather, keep a fast and wish me dead.”
“Today too, our Evie is coldhearted…….”
The astrologer mumbled sadly at Evie’s cold retort. So Evie scowled and sighed deeply.
One way or another, in this dirty back alley, the astrologer was the only one who treated Evie like a person.
Even though he didn’t reveal his name or face, and even though she didn’t know why he settled in this place where there was nothing, Evie owed him always and reluctantly answered his question.
“I want to become a difficult person.”
“A difficult person?”
“Look, why I ended up like this since morning. Because I’m easy and vulnerable.”
Evie spoke sharply, looking down at her scarred hands.
“Because I have no strength, no money, and no difficult corners, that’s why I’m in this shape.”
Evie looked disgusted at her worthless hand shape and raised her head.
“So, I want to become a person that others find difficult. Like those people living in Tienda.”
Evie said that and pointed to the sky. There were a massive continent floating in the air and several islands protecting it.
Its name was Tienda. A land where noble and exalted people lived.
A very long time ago, the sea covered the earth.
When destruction came in the form of flooding, God mercifully scooped up the earth with both hands.
And he commanded four dragons, resembling the sky, to guard the land that rose in the air.
That’s how two floating continents were born with God’s blessing, and now we live on Tienda Vis… as the astrologer had taught her a long time ago.
Among them, the Tienda continent monopolized the sunlight, and where Evie lived, the Vis continent, was sick with shadow and curse.
“You said it, didn’t you? The nobles live above. Watch, I’ll get up there someday.”
Evie reached out to Tienda with her dirtstreaked hand. Her emaciated fingertips were pitiful, but the black pupils shining between them sparkled like stars.
“I will become an incredibly difficult person up there!”
.
.
.
About 8 years since she declared that.
Evie, who had indeed come up to Tienda and was now close to becoming a holy woman, still felt deep selfloathing for her disheveled state.
“Now, Miss Evie, what’s your wish?”
“World domination.”
“How about a feasible goal?”
“I’ll become a holy woman and seize power.”
“Then, what do you want to say to the tower master?”
“Get out of my life, you character disaster! … Oh, what should I do?”
After answering fluently, Evie put her hand to her forehead.
Perhaps the usual Evie would have answered questions about wishes or ambitions, and about acquaintances like this:
―May the world be filled with peace.
―I want to become a holy woman and convey hope to people.
―Dear respected tower master, thank you very much for leading someone as inadequate as me.
But last night’s incident had taken Evie’s worldly wisdom away.
Thus, having revealed her dark and worldly true intentions, Evie had to press her forehead for a while to swallow her humiliation.
“Seems like I’ve been too honest.”
At that time, a loose voice was heard nearby.
The man who spoke had short brown hair and wore a butler’s uniform. His name was Dias. He was Evie’s butler, who shared life and death with her.
Dias noticed Evie’s condition last night right away. Evie also confided everything to her butler this morning, so the two were now working together to find the thread of this curse.
“Can’t you hold back or dodge the question?”
“No, my mouth moves on its own.”
“I’ll excuse myself for a moment.”
Dias lifted Evie’s chin with his gloved hand. Then he looked deeply into Evie’s black eyes and said,
“It’s indeed the curse of Noche.”
“Noche, that’s a name I haven’t heard in a while……”
At the butler’s affirmation, Evie smiled with a gloomy face.
Noche. Originally, it was one of the four dragons that protected Tiendabis.
But 300 years ago, Noche revolted and lost its life to the other dragons.
Noche didn’t stop struggling until the last moment and eventually turned the blessings it received from the gods into a curse and spread it across the world.
