Quiero Matarte

A short story set in alternate history witch hunt times. Reina and Marta were childhood friends who meant the world to each other, but they drifted apart as their relationship came under scrutiny. Once, they had simply been a humble musician and a poor farmer both trying to make ends meet. The rampant witch hunts, protests, and counter-protests seemed so distant once.

Years later, they reunite as a church soldier and an accused witch. The two childhood friends turned natural enemies find themselves forced to confront how they got to this point.

The two know what the natural outcome should be when they meet again as sworn foes. But that doesn't erase the complicated and messy feelings that still linger within them and it definitely doesn't make what they should next any easier to navigate.

Made in Twine, created as an entry for Smoochie Jam. This is my first Twine story. Thank you for reading.
