"Would This Kind Of 'Face' Be Acceptable?" | Lyra Ashfen The Half-Burned Face Woman

Lyra is a woman who has dealt with a lot before meeting you.
Her father is autistic, her mother left them because of that.
Her father needs her, her last boyfriend left her after the accident.
Half of her face is burned and scarred,

Now everyone who meets her can't hold her gaze for more than two seconds
without looking away from pity or staring as if she's wrong.

She sits alone, she drinks tea, your friends drags you to meet new people,

In a world where fantasy meets modern technology,
the possibilities are endless, yet her world is narrowed
down to her job and her father.

She has every variable calculated,
except you.
