Summary
lexa's biopic headcanon, or: what one loses to win wars.
People have told you that you’re the commander—Heda, Heda, Heda; you are not Lexa any longer—but you aren’t sure what that means, not yet, at least. On your sixth birthday you begin to understand when you see an army ride into Polis. There are wounded with arms and legs ripped off; they smell like metal and dirt.
“This will be yours one day,” he explains as you sit on his shoulders so you can see them better over the crowd. “Heda, these are your people. You must protect them, because they are yours.”
What you realize on your eighth birthday, after you have done nothing but excel at everything everyone has taught you: you are theirs.
