I want to do to you what spring does to the cherry trees
Clarke Griffin was born in space, where her life had been mapped out for her: become a doctor like her mother, be a dutiful daughter and friend, match with a partner and have a child, so the human race could continue to live.
It had been an easy life to contemplate, because there were no choices. There was only one path for her to follow, and only one life.
Being branded a criminal and being sent to the ground changed all of that.
Finding out there were people alive on earth changed it all again.
Suddenly she was free.
Suddenly she was faced with thousands of choices, very few of them easy or simple.
Except one.
