I'm not sure if this is just what her mindscape looks like, or if this land holds some deep significance to her.
[k]

@Hessian
Either way, I'm jealous. Neither of us can even remember what our homelands looked like.
[k]

@Hessian
Not to say I exactly MISS my homeland, I suppose.
[k]

@Hessian
I'm afraid I'm MISSING only one thing, and it's far more important!
[k]

@Hessian
Can you guess what it is?
[k]

@Hessian
[f large]My head!
[k]

?1:Yeah. I, uh... I kinda figured.

A Dullahan without a head is like a cat without toe beans.

Don't you think?
[k]

@Hessian
I can't eat like this. I can't talk like this. I can't even point out anyone's overgrown nose hairs!
[k]

@Hessian
Not that I have any desire to look at people's nose hairs, of course.
[k]

@Hessian
Oh, right, I just remembered. When this is all over, could you give Nursery a message for me?
[k]

@Hessian
Tell her that Halloween coming up soon is no excuse for sticking a pumpkin where my head should be!
[k]

@Hessian
The worst part is that she carves it into a jack-o'-lantern and sticks a candle in it! Not at all pleasant!
[k]

No, not at all.[sr]I fight purely on instinct.

@
I'll never have to recoil from [&his:her] presence.
[k]

@
I can just bide my time here, quietly waiting for the inevitable destruction.
[k]

@
One day, like a Lostbelt, this will all be cut short, and everything will come to an end.
[k]

@
I won't be able to atone, or make amends. I haven't even committed any sins.
[k]

@
...Except the sin of being myself.
[k]

@
...Why did [&he:she] have to make that connection?
[k]

@
It would have been better if we just had a typical Master and Servant relationship. If [&he:she] had treated[sr]me like an unfeeling machine, without any attachment.
[k]

@
...Why didn't [&he:she]?
[k]

@
Especially when it must have been so hard for [&him:her] just[sr]seeing my face.
[k]

@
“Why” just keeps echoing through my head.
[k]

@
There have been numerous instances of formerly allied Servants going over to the enemy's side.
[k]

@
But back then, it was just me. Just one Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova.
