Prologue

The healer smiled, as she held the babe, fresh from its mother's womb. The child had blue eyes, they were big and beautiful and looked innocently up at her. She felt some guilt about what she was about to do, what she had to do...To take the life of an innocent, oh not directly it would dishonor the Great Shepard to do so and he had been dishonored much of late. Instead she would do exactly as that girl asked, it had not been her fault that Khal Drogo's wound had festered. The curved blade of the Dothraki Bloodriders was rarely kept clean and there had been little that she could do to prevent it from occurring. She had tried and failed to heal him by normal means and those had failed, the Shepard would not blame her, for watching over his lambs.

Now what she did wasn't right, she knew that and she knew that she was about to give Khal Drogo a great deal of suffering, but a part of her believed that he deserved to suffer. After all he had caused the suffering of hundreds of thousands in his time on the great plain, let him see what it was like to be one of the powerless. She chanted over the babe and the Khal, watching as their spirits were exchanged, watching as the Khal's body started to slip into the other world. She forced the spirit to stay inside the body, making it not truly alive, but not dead either, for she could not allow the babe's spirit to live. Not when it had been prophesied that he would take over the world, she would not allow the suffering of so many, not if she could help it.

She cast out a strong sleeping spell, it would make the camp drowsy at first, before they fell into slumber. She then called a woman to her, a woman that had lost her newborn babe in the attack. She made the woman believe that the babe was her own and watched as she wrapped him in swaddling clothes and left the tent. She then cast a memory spell over the entire camp, making them believe that the child had always been with her as well. After that she made sure that the princess wouldn't bleed to death, for all that she was a stupid and trusting child, it would not serve the Shepard well to have her die. The Healer knew that her end would come soon and she found that she didn't care, she had her revenge on the people that had taken everything from her and that was what mattered to her now. She would soon join her Shepard in the sky and he would welcome his servant.
