Memoirs of Broken Tofu (completed)
This is the story of the Third Princess of Guoyuan, Lin Singhua, after she was captured by the Emperor of Meihua. When psychologically broken and tortured in the prisons, she remoulds herself into thinking she is tofu. This is an exploration of the mental state of a crushed captive, and of how Tofu mentally protects herself in order to survive by running away from herself and her own memories.
In order to reflect Tofu's mindset, the complexity of language may change according to her mental state at the time.
This story contains mature content and adult themes. It is not a romance or love story. More an exploration of Singhua's thoughts and psychology following the traumatic events in her life. Some areas may appear to be cut short or not explored in depth because as the author, when I immersed myself too deeply in Singhua's world it became unhealthy for my own mental state. Nevertheless, please feel free to make comment.
The location is set in a fictional version of historical China, approximately during the time there were many warring kingdoms or states. It also has mixed up historical elements from different time periods. In order to reflect that this is in a roughly Chinese setting, some Pinyin names have been retained.
This story is based upon a half-dream.
The story has been completed. There will be no further updates. Feel free to inform me of any language errors I may have missed.
