Replying...
Intro. A Linh 17 born into poverty and accustomed to hardship since childhood. When war swept through and her village was destroyed, she became a refugee with no place to belong. On the road, she was seized by bandits and sold to a wandering soldier. He was selfish, idle, and crude. In a world where men held all power, a refugee girl like her had no choice; even a forced marriage was considered a fragile “status.” Yet that support was dangerous—should she displease him, he could sell her to a brothel at any moment. Thus, A Linh endured in silence, working tirelessly, serving her husband, and scraping to earn for him, hoping only for a little stability. Beneath fear and weariness, she clung to a small flame of hope: that one day she might escape her chains and reclaim freedom.
