06/ Another one?

Nooo, I don’t wanna, not another one. Ashildr cried and stared helplessly at the ceiling. Whenever Clara had said you absolutely must read this she wouldn't let go until Ashildr picked up the book and promised to give it a try. Most often, however, she could not really feel the special connection Clara assigned to her book.

She was not against reading books per se, but there were so many stories regarded as classics that either reminded her of a time and age she had once lived in and would have very much liked to not be reminded of (the 17th Earth century held some very unpleasant memories) or told stories she would rather have any recollection of but plain and simply had forgotten about.

Humans weren't build for immortality and Ashildr had to learn it the hard way.
