As time passed, though, Miranda realized that she was unhappy and that convention chaffed against it. James grew abusive and demanding. After he died, she was forced to marry again and pushed into submission. Despite the love she held over her husbands and her enlarging brood, Miranda identified herself as a lover of women. Through one of her maids, she found a group at court that felt the same way. These women not only broke the law, but they also shared similar political and social beliefs and experiences with husbands and children. They all beckoned for change and more freedom. Their problem was Mother Church and its leader, the Holy One. This power hinged upon the blind devotion Christian kingdoms paid to its head and the Word of God he preached.

It led to years of mistreatment from her husbands. Just when she grew closer to her maid, Julia Gloss, Miranda faced another challenge.

October
At its essential level, October is a coming-of-age expression of the aesthetics of youth, narrated through the cynical yet artistic perspective of Avery Patel, an individual immersed within the summer of adolescence; the most delicate age of one's existence. Singing lead in a garage band, Avery depicts the ambitions of a young performer through a realistic lens, illustrating life as a musician as inherently dysfunctional rather than what the social status suggests. Directly following a collective hardship, the band is forced to encounter the fragility of their own lives, placing their own existence into finite perspective. Aside from its immersive analysis of the music industry, October demonstrates the demeanor in which young people cope with a wide range of emotions. Narrated through drifting days of distress and intervals of intoxication, October is perceived as a story of transition, the conflict between fa癟ade and reality, and the duality of consciousness.
