arc || margery is an almost sorrowful persona to look upon. she resembles a christ-like figure. her life was laden with many landmines of suffering. yet, she bore all of this with a simple humbleness and quiet love. such devotion was almost overwhelming. she was peculiar in that she hardly ever spoke unless spoken to. margery thinks very little of herself and although her mind may be capable of many great intelligent things, she has never exercised this to its full capacity. she is led by her heart and humanitarian leanings, and this leads her to forming close attachments with those who are suffering most. the culmination of this manifested in her untimely death. she had an option to live at the expense of letting her newborn baby die, and she chose to sacrifice her life for the life of her son, perhaps much to the dismay of others.
throughout the rest of her history, margery continued to be drawn to those in suffering and in need. while she loves everyone without conditions, there is only so little she can actually do. they must be willing to lower themselves to her level to understand what she is trying to tell them.
margery is a very lowly creature and gets off by the bare minimum. she does not claim allegiance to any place.
her struggle and weaknesss lies in doubting her ability to actually be a force for good. her faith can be wavered or she can stretch herself too thin and fall into despair that she just is not capable of saving the entirely of the population.
