🖊 Destan! Everything about her fascinates me, I need to know more!

The second she comes home after seeing her mother die, she and her uncle have a terrible row. She makes for quite a sight with her bloodied face and the open wounds on her knuckles.

Her uncle knows. All he has to do is look at Destan's face to know that his sister is dead. When she draws closer, she smells like death. And so the first thing that Uncle Gürel does is blame her.

For the first time in her life, Destan disagrees. It's not her fault, and it's not her fault Behiye died either, no matter how long she convinced herself it was. Then her uncle blames her magic instead, as if that makes things any better.

She screams horrible things at him. He yells them right back. Her own mother died tonight. So did his sister. They lapse into a horrendous silence when they realise they're talking about the same person.

He cleans the wounds on her knuckles. She gives him Lütfiye's necklace. She tells her uncle that she killed her mother's murderer personally and he almost smiles. They make an unspoken pact to support each other.

Destan plants forget-me-nots. She sends her uncle money and extends an invitation, but it hurts him too much to live in the estate. All of his sister's things are there.

Gürel drops by. Never says anything. Doesn't stay for long. But he keeps an eye on his niece. Waters the forget-me-nots.

He doesn't stop being an asshole. She remains angry. But they support each other.

I think Your Blood by Nothing But Thieves perfectly describes Destan and her mother's relationship 🧍‍♂️ like...

No, I don't think I will ever get over you

Oh no, there's no escape

No matter how I try

Now I'm stuck on one day

For the rest of my life

You know it's your blood that I bleed

Tell me that there's some way that I'll get through the night
