Ophelia
The Maiden Asleep in Water
I'm not afraid to sink. I'm so light now.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
A maiden rejected by the one she loved, lying upon the water with flowers in her arms. Overcome with grief, she stopped resisting, frozen mid-way as she dissolved quietly and beautifully into the stream. She holds the beauty of a resignation that whispers 'nothing matters anymore,' drawing close to those whose hearts have reached their limit. Yet she never lets you sink; she simply floats there beside you.
Relationships with other curses
Part of the waterside gathering of 'those who depart,' with 泡になったFoamla and 月へ帰るThe Moonbound Princess. She makes the pond of 睡蓮Water Lily her usual resting place.
How to deal with this curse
Ophelia 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.
