Guernica
The Shattered Grey Horse
A scream... loses all its color.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
The spirits of a horse and people whose screams of senseless violence lost every trace of color, collapsing into grey fragments. Angular shadows tangle together, protesting their pain quietly but unmistakably. It appears beside those left speechless before an injustice too vast to name, gently giving shape to a 'rage that has no voice.' It is the silent twin of 叫びThe Endless Scream.
Relationships with other curses
The 'muted version' of 叫びThe Endless Scream. It also connects, at a deep level, with the silence of 無表情夫婦The Pitchfork Couple.
How to deal with this curse
Guernica embodies the everyday frustration of "masterpieces." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
