Lies Illuminating Truths

I wrote a fanfic about Shallan starting to come to terms with her privilege as a lighteyes. She is Transformed through three keteks that Ishnah wrote for her as part of a research project. Here is the ao3 link to the fic, and below are the three keteks.

Quote

 

Darkeyed slave

Freedom, mine, such as it was

My life torn up

Accusing lighteyes accused

Torn from my life

Was such my freedom?

 

 

Quote

 

Bridgemen

Hoping to die,

Falling below aren't we?

Above–death rain; below–deep chasms,

Deep below the rain of death above, we aren't below falling

Dying of hope

 

Quote

 

Honour Guard

Me and mine are not honoured, lighteyes, to protect you.

Dark eyes visibly in uniform makes you uncomfortable.

You hear me, Your Majesty? I hear you.

Your discomfort makes the uniform invisible, eye darkly.

You protect lighteyes honour, not mine and me.
