A Friend of Queen Nanny. Content Warning.
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction loosely based on historical events. There are gruesome scenes of death and dying I have seen suffering and affliction by the hands of others, and still I rise. Not just I who rise, but my brothers and sisters too. The ones who came before and the ones to come after. My story does not begin with me, for I am merely a lowly Jamaican Canadian woman of this century. My story begins long ago, to a time that far precedes my existence. Allow me to introduce, Akhiza Sheba, my ancestor.

The wind carried ashes more than it carried air. In the ruins of what was once a school in a small Middle Eastern village, a twelve-year-old girl named Nura sat cross-legged on a piece of broken concrete, clutching a dull pencil and a torn sheet of paper. Around her, buildings stood like silent skeletons. The sky, stained gray by smoke, hung low, as if it too mourned with the people.
