VIOLETTA.

the devil's violinist

"she longs to be the protector her past self needed, but who does she have to protect now? driven mad by her loneliness, she has none who seek her out."

a violin prodigy trained from young, the burden of her parents' hopes and dreams linger on her coat-tails. award after award,  yet she is not given a solace for her feelings. without a space to simply be, she withdraws into herself, with only her violin to speak for her.

"in order to keep this family together, i must perform."

she has spent her whole life pursuing this dream that she had inherited. but the pedestal that she was forced upon eventually crumbles, and she falls alone. how could she find the words to express her feelings, when she wasn't even taught to acknowledge them?

"i will keep performing, so please hear me."

her songs are the only way she knows how to connect with others. so she cries out, again, and again, and again. but her music soon reflects the harsh and distorted noise in her heart, and drives away her listeners. this pushes her to an ultimatum: be heard or die in silence. if she does not have an audience, she must simply create her own. she will have people listen to her, no matter what the cost.
