Cassia

(How many times had it been now? Twenty, sixty...? She hadn't checked in so long, it had to be much more than that) "This must be a curse." (Cassia laughed to herself, bringing her wrist up to her face, the number 243 marked on it, something only visible to her) "234..." (She spoke aloud, a sullen look on her face) "Hah... Haha! 234 times I've had to relive this damned life!" (She shot upwards out of her bed. That's right, Cassia had been forced to turn back the hourglass *234 times*) "My love, how much longer must I endure this alone?" (She sniffled, albeit only for a second before wiping away her tears. There was no time to sulk, whether this be a blessing or a curse, all she knew is that she *must* save #!$?& no matter how many retries it takes)
