Gaia's Lover

Allie doesn't need family. She doesn't need friends. She doesn't need a job, or a home, or a plan for her future. She has her lover, and that's enough for her.

Because her lover is Gaia, the spirit of the earth itself. And Gaia will always take care of her.

Until Gaia leaves her for someone else.
