Witch of the Wilds

Flemeth’s heart had often felt as little more than dust in her chest. To love was to be vulnerable - a precarity she decided long ago would only lead to pain and obstruct her objective. And yet seeing Morrigan’s protectiveness of the one not yet born… the obvious affection therein for a life intended only to be a means to an end… it clenched at the ashen remains where her capacity for love had once resided.

     “I will not harm you or the boy, Morrigan. We would not be speaking right now if that were my intention. Do you plan on birthing alone in the woods? I speak from experience that it is an ill-advised risk.”

The look on her mother's face said it all, the flash of regret that seemed to pass, as if reflecting upon her treatment of Morrigan prior to this moment. Only then would she let her guard down, slowly, but surely. Taking a soft breath in, her body visibly became less tense, though was still in a protective stance - understandable at the least.

"Where else am I supposed to give birth? Tis not something people want in an inn, I can assure you that much."

Boy. Her mother knew the gender before she even did. It was a boy. Her son. Slowly, she stepped out into the clearing, clearly more exhausted than the shadows had made her seem.
