Dragon Breath

All the men who took from me, Who preyed upon my Vulnerability, Who stripped away my dignity, I found them in their dreams and cut them Down in the way they Cut me. I rise up in a fury breathing an angry, Bright fire, Shrieking like a banshee as the flames escape My mouth. I am the monster now. Because no one ever Bothers to learn the Origins of villains, I won’t divulge the details of my own History. There isn’t time and My heart is hungry For revenge.

A can feel the hrt and anger in your verse, Catelyn. We all have moments from our past that we wish hadn't happened but sometimes you need to just let it go and move on. The heart needs to love and be loved.
