True-bone warning. Multiple pairings, not yet decided: Sirius, Regulus, James, Barty Crouch Jr., and others...
When Walburga Black was born, she received a prophecy: The greatest head of the Black family would remember her for the rest of her life.
From childhood, Astraea Black felt as if a thorn were growing inside her bones, leaving her restless and in pain.
Later, she realized it was a long sword of resentment and fury growing within her soul.
"Mother, if Sirius can't do it, why can't I?"
"I can inherit everything the Black family has, including my brothers."
Her full-blooded older brother Sirius was a resolute defector.
Her quiet younger brother Regulus was a despairing reformer.
And what was Astraea?
"Mother, I will be Elizabeth, emerging from the Tower of London. I alone have inherited your ambition and methods, and I alone can carry on the ancient glory of the House of Black."
We are different branches growing from the same tree. We share the same roots, and we will never part.
Note: My writing style is deliberately flowery, purely by personal choice. Please respect the work that went into this and don't make baseless accusations about AI. If needed, I can provide an ID from six or seven years ago, when my writing was even more flowery.
The premise is very interesting! I hope there will be more updates to advance the plot. However, I'm quite surprised that, as it seems, Walbuga herself is the head of the family, yet she hasn't considered letting her daughter compete for the position.
Every time I read fanfiction, I always comment on how vividly the characters are portrayed. Like Vulgab in this book, my impression of her is no longer just that of a mother who screams and shouts letters. Especially when it's described that someone will remember her, she also thinks that person could be herself. The original character also struggled for her own destiny.
It's very well written; I've already caught up and will continue reading. The story weaves together many foreign historical events, alluding to the sibling relationship. It gives me a sense of destiny, and the writing is excellent, capturing the essence of a story about blood ties. The overall pacing is slow, and I'm looking forward to what happens next.
"True Bones" is highly praised. It's clear the author has a wide reading base, a strong feminist consciousness, and a penchant for portraying the multifaceted nature of characters. The author uses many historical allusions and references to various books to reflect the characters' fates, but perhaps this makes it seem a bit pedantic?
The author's creativity and ideas are excellent! However, I have a small suggestion: I believe the author didn't use AI for creation, but it would be best not to rely on them even for text polishing. Human writing may not be perfect, but it excels in expressing genuine emotion. I really dislike AI writing; it has that fake, inhuman feel. AI ultimately lacks human emotions… Anyway, I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product! Thank you so much for the creation! Keep it up! ✊
A masterpiece!!! It's so beautiful 🫶🫶🫶
Wow, author, you're absolutely amazing! I think the Volvoga section is incredibly well-written! Ancient women had no human rights; before marriage, they obeyed their fathers; after marriage, their husbands; and in old age, their sons (who are gender-neutral) were. They seemed carefree, but in reality, they never had the right to choose for themselves.
I haven't watched it yet, I'll just get used to the rating system first. Why are there so few people here?
It's great! Looking forward to more updates from the author! ヾ(◍°∇°◍)ﾉﾞ
I'm really looking forward to it, it looks great!
