Here it comes, people.

The mother of Yolanda.

------------

Yolanda has never actually met her mother - for those of you who have read her bio, she was 3 when her village was ransacked by exorcists. Unbeknownst to her, she actually traveled far away as a toddler, and was found in a different village that had suffered a similar fate - and found by another young boy whose parents were also missing.

This young boy, Enoc, decided to take care of the little ghost child he found, and always referred to her as "sister".

He often told Yolanda stories about how brave her parents were, giving their lives to save the two of them. Every year near her birthday, Yolanda takes the few things she has (an old travel pamphlet about France, bones she found as a child in a church basement, and a couple candles) and puts them up in a window - in honor of her parents who died.

The leaves and twig represent things that Yolanda has always loved - nature, being outdoors, and autumn especially. The bowl she has kept with her for years; found in the asylum where she and Enoc lived for almost their entire lives, the only thing she will fill it with is blood. When she found it, there was blood already in it - old blood, dried blood. Yolanda felt that it was strangely beautiful, so every year she fills it with blood (no, she'll never tell where she gets it) to put on the altar as well.

She never knew either of her parents, but she's about to meet her mother.

I find this very, very touching.

I hope it is a meeting that goes well. UaU
