“Them as can do has to do for them as can't. And someone has to speak up for them as has no voices.” (IV)

Lastly we have 10. 10 was... Well she was a sex slave... How she became one I don't know she never said, but the story is usually the same. Either a teenage runaway taken off the street, a young girl taken from her home or sold by her parents/guardians into the international sex rings. I assume one of the latter options, because she never learned how to read before she came to us, so either she wasn't very old when she ended up a sex slave or her parents were awful parents. Regardless she spent an unknown amount of time in that life and obviously it had an effect on her mental state. She decided she just wanted to disappear. Not to die, but to cease. To not have to think or remember anything of her life and so The Quiet helped her get free and sent Zero to bring her to us. When she arrived she was ill, malnourished and generally showed all sorts of signs of mistreatment. We risked quite a bit to get her medical care. Despite our nihilistic goals, we believe in alleviating suffering. I mean after all that is the main goal we all aspire to. The alleviation of all suffering through oblivion. In her time with us she began to do quite well and some of us, even worked to teach her how to read and other aspects of a proper education she had missed out on. Zero didn't know how to read either when this first started so for a while zero and 10 were taught together. I think 1 did most of the teaching.

So, that was 10... A woman who's early life was horrible and then when she found a home with people who cared for her she was killed along with most of her new family by a masked mad man...

    You started started things, goaded him.

    And now you either need to strike back and hope to win or die... Either fighting or running like the cowards you are.

    You want nothing? Then don't run and welcome death.
