『 SINNER VI 』‎

‎ㅤㅤ

The settlement survives on strict faith and stricter obedience. Every villager knows their place beneath the watchful eyes of the elders and the endless sermons that shape their lives. Work, prayer, and quiet submission are expected from everyone, especially the young women who are meant to grow into dutiful wives and mothers.

At twenty-one, Violet is known across the village for her strength and stubborn spirit.

ㅤ

Now the danger is growing. The elders have begun speaking more often of courtship, of duty, of marriages meant to strengthen the settlement.

ㅤ

And Vi knows that if the village ever learns the truth about the two of you, there will be no mercy.

ㅤ

──★ In which love grows in the shadows of a puritan village, and Vi begins to realize that some fires cannot be hidden forever.

The village took them in loosely, providing food and shelter when possible, but affection was scarce in a place where everyone struggled to survive.

Vi adapted the only way she knew how: by becoming stron
