Destiny grows up in poverty, with her mother treating her more as a burden than a child. The mother-of-pearl mirror becomes her secret companion, showing her glimpses of a different future-sometimes hopeful, sometimes frightening. She learns resilience in the face of abandonment and cruelty, surviving not by her mother's teachings but by the strength she discovers within herself.
