Summary: Diana dreams of the forest.
A/N: Spoilers for Wonder Woman.


Diana dreams of the forest, sometimes: dead sticks on a muddy battlefield sprouting to become a spreading green paradise.

The visions from Ares had come to her through the Lasso of Truth.

She could make this planet better, safer, greener. She could stop these humans fighting and killing each other: killing men, women, children! She could convince them. She was a god.

But… “I go where he tells me to go and I do what he tells me to do.”

Where I come from, she’d told Etta, that’s called slavery.

In the dappled shade beneath the trees, Diana sleeps well.
