This is so beautiful. I love how she can tell the future, create plans to make lives better, or decide if someone will die or not. I adore her because she's so delicate from the way she treats herself and isn't inhumane. She understands that she has to do this and I love how strong she is for that.

Hey! So I said I was meant to post the review on your beautiful story, yeah? Here it is! Congrats!
Rosie Thinks: One of my favourite story tropes of all time is when the author takes us into the mind of someone who is widely considered evil or the villain, and shows us their true nature (Maleficent, anyone?). This is what Lauren Stargazer has done here - she's taken on the myth of Pestilence (at least, that's my interpretation of it). In this story, Pestilence is a lonely woman who none can see, but all feel the effects of her touch.
The narrative is fairly simple, but this story doesn't need flowery words to convey its message. Instead, the simplicity enhances the sadness the story contains. I really loved how she has woven a number of stories into the one narrative. Each of her victims has a backstory and while some of them were cliche, the detail and care given to each one really showed the narrator's character. Just the mood the author created was melancholy yet beautiful. Another fantastic one-shot that's worth a read if you're looking for something different!

Amazing job! I love the way you wrote this and how you have so many characters and back stories in such few words! There is no way to describe how well written this little one shot is and it's such a shame that you don't have more reviews, because this is so good! Again, such a shame that there's not a lot of reviews! Great work!
