The Aviary

My apologies for the late update.

I know Merle’s diary entry is pretty hard to read. . .not much I could do to change that, but, here’s what it says for curious people:

Tonight I sang your song, Mum, wearing your costume, sitting in the spot meant for you. When Oriole told me I would take your place, I thought I would form a connection to you…I thought I would be able to feel you there, with me. And I did, for awhile, but…it’s not enough anymore. There’s something missing. Why don’t I enjoy what you loved? Why am I so different from you?

This chapter has one more page to go, then onto chapter 3! We’ll finally get the last of the characters introduced, and the story will finally start moving somewhere. . .haha.
