Rolf's whole being started to relax as the lord agreed to help him and his family out, but the moment his daughter Mila was brought into the deal, a look of pure horror over took his face. "No! Not Mila! She's blind sire! You couldn't possibly have any use of her," he said quickly, almost trying to beg for his daughter's release from their deal. He made her sound as useless as a stick in the mud with her disability, trying his best to prevent the lord from taking her away from him.<br/>~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Mila slowly pushed herself up to sit, stretching her arms above her head with a soft groan of pleasure. The sun was well above the trees by now, telling her from its position that it must be close to lunch time by now. Though she didn't rush off to get home, for she knew all too well that they would not have enough food for three meals a day. They barely had enough to scrape by with one and a half meals a day. She also knew that her family had been giving up large portions of their small meals to make sure Mila had enough to eat. Which somewhat infuriated her, even though she knew that they were only trying to take care of her.<br/><br/>It was because she was blind, she knew that. But that didn't make her incapable of surviving just like her family did. Digging her nails into the soft earth beneath her, Mila let her eyes slip closed as she felt the tickle of the grass dancing on her cheek.<br/><br/>No man had ever taken an interest in her, it was because she was blind. Mila heard the whispers of the village people, unfortunately, she wasn't deaf. Pushing herself up off the earth floor, Mila grabbed her cane and started to make her way back to their hut. The whole way back, she could hear the whispers of the villager's pity on her as she walked past. She could also hear the whispers of where her father had run off to. He had gone to beg for help from the lord of the land, for recently her had fallen off his horse while working the fields and injured his back. But from what she heard, there would be no help from the lord.
