"She was the girl that you had always known, that girl with home in her eyes. She was also that tragedy you forgot for a little while, until you heard her voice over the radio, with interference sounding like your favorite song. Even if you forgot the title. It was always on the tip of your tongue, just almost remembering what her smile looked like in the dim light of dawn. Almost, but never fully. She was magical, but she was so broken. But for that same exact reason, every part of you loved her. She was home, and always out of reach. What was the name of that song again?"
"What's your name beautiful?"
"
Laceyanna Rose, well just Lace works."
"I could tell by your eyes that you are..."
"
22 years, with stories past my years."
"Look at you... you free-spirited..."
"
Gal? I think that's the word you're looking for."
"There is a dim hesitation in your soul, what is it masking?."
"
I don't know what you mean by that."
"Your aura says that you are an Other."
"
Synonymous with option, story of my life."
"By the look of it you came from Burlington, Vermont"
"
It's where I was trapped, but it is not who I am."
"Spend the days dreaming and the nights awake doin' things we know we shouldn't do, 'cause I wouldn't be with you"

"
My compass may be broke..."
Laceyanna grew up in a small rather boring city of Vermont, with chilling air and harsh winters. In fact much of the beginning years of Lace's life was very similar to a long dark winter, not much life or warmth to be found. The mother of the three Rose sisters passed away after the birth of small Lillyanna, something along the lines of too much blood loss or maybe it was a seizure. Either way the loss of Mrs. Rose hit the household quite hard, as the oldest Lace was charged with making sure things continued to run smoothly at the age of 14. As the years passed, Mr. Rose became increasingly volatile as he drowned himself in many bottles of whiskey and scotch. Lissanna, three years younger than Lace, was found to be quite bitter to their youngest sister who she, along with their father, blamed for the death of their mother. Lace grew to hate her home, and she dreamed of escaping. In fact she planned for an entire year on how to escape with a dear friend of hers. But before she could hatch this plan, and finally escape the dead end that her life had become, her father exploded. None of the sisters were harmed, however the youngest lost her voice. Terrified, the doctors pronounced her mute, as at such a young age she was traumatized by her father's outburst. Lissanna escaped in the night at one point, leaving Lace alone with Lily. Trapped in a dark and cold place.
Years passed when finally a woman her father had fallen in love with came to the house that Lace alone had kept going, and pronounced that she had married her father. Pronounced that she would try her best to be a stand in mother. Pronounced that she would take care of Lily. Pronounced how sorry she was that Lace had to experience what she did. Pronounced that her father had become a changed man. Sober, in love, and willing to do what he needed to for forgiveness, he had found religion. However, Lace politely declined. There was no forgiveness to be given, none she wanted to relinquish to a man who had leeched her youth and stole her sisters voice. In the end, Lace allowed Mrs. Rose 2.0 to take Lily to the new home. In the end Lace found herself alone again. Alone but free.
Miles later, Lace found herself free of a dark past, but searching for the familiar face that had once told her she had the voice of a mockingbird. The same face with a name that was always weighing on her heart. Soon she found herself singing every night to a crowd that grew with each passing month. Within a year, an agent scooped her up and away. She became the singer on everyone's playlist, her voice filtering through radios all over the world. Anna Lace. What had always been her passion, her escape, became her legacy. Lace was all over television, singing and being swept away by the emotion that she wrote into her music. Touching the hands of her fans, inking her name onto blown up images of her face. At 20 she had become instantly famous, and there was no sign of her stopping. Until the news that Lissanna had gotten in a fatal car accident reached her. In that moment, everything seemed to stop for her, the brightness of the world faded as she boarded the first flight to Lamboris. The funeral went on, with young Lily hugging her black covered legs tightly and crying. Her father seemed well, graying around the edges on the arm of Mrs. Rose 2.0. Lily was happy, even though she was still silent as the sky. As her family packed their car to go back home, Lace stayed behind. Lamboris, the city where her sister last drew breath and even smiled. This is where she would stay for a while, then there was that strange pull. The same pull she had felt so many years ago.
