Her.
She did not need a pretty face, nor a gentle voice. In making
her, there was no requirement for added beauty, for a touch of
honey.
She was radiant. The storms of the century were of her
creation, and when she spoke, the Earth shook.
She never required a microphone or even a loud voice. People
listened even to her silence. She did not need to be anything
more than how she had been made.
