J’ignore comment les historiens futurs me jugeront. Me verront-ils comme un despote, un tyran sanguinaire, une folle qui renversa le monde ? Ou bien mes actes auront-ils une telle portée qu’ils rachèteront mes crimes à eux-seuls ? Une chose est certaine, mon nom est gravé si profondément dans le bois de la déesse qu’une éternité serait insuffisante pour l’en effacer. Fille de Seigneur, Luwise Sofunada est éduquée pour succéder à son père. En ce monde pourtant, nul pouvoir n’est héréditaire. Okateï, l’Arbre-Mère qui couvre la terre, désigne ceux qui auront la charge de protéger ses bourgeons.

Alors que son entourage la pousse dans cette voie, les questions se bousculent. Ses doutes atteignent leur paroxysme lorsque se révèle une connexion particulière avec la déesse. Un don que certains considèrent de mauvais augure.

J'ai patienté trois heures à la fête d'anniversaire de mon petit ami, Roméo Bossuet. Celui qui devait être le héros du jour dans son costume élégant a été appelé à l'hôpital par son premier amour, Gisèle Favre. Prétextant une entorse à la cheville pour susciter la sympathie, cette femme a même filmé une vidéo d'un baiser avec Roméo. Pris par l'émotion, Roméo, soi-disant invalide des jambes, s'est levé pour la plaquer contre la porte. « Roméo, pourquoi tu dis pas à Nina que tes jambes sont guéries ? » La voix de Roméo était pâteuse : « Si elle l'apprenait, elle insisterait pour que je l'épouse. Mais qu'est-elle pour moi ? Juste une bonne gratuite ! Elle est pas digne de devenir ma femme. » Ils s'embrassaient passionnément. Gisèle, vêtue d'une robe de mariée que j'avais conçue de mes propres mains, regardait la caméra avec provocation. La vidéo s'est arrêtée sur le son de leurs baisers fougueux. À ce moment-là, j'ai compris que Roméo m'avait toujours menti… J'ai jeté le gâteau que j'avais préparé pour lui à la poubelle, puis ai pris mon téléphone pour envoyer un message à ma mère : « Maman, j'irai au rendez-vous arrangé, je te promets. »
