Once upon a time, there was a land where all creatures live peacefully, all together in perfect harmony. Fairies, elves, giants, immortals, griffins, vampires, werewolves, witches even humans (only two anyway). Dragons, animals, elephants, monkeys. Well, I think you get it!
So where was I, oh yeah: Once upon a time… land...vampire...dragons…
It was pacific existence, away from the wars, the poverty and all evils of the other world.
The land was full of beauty, all kind of beauty. If you wish to have a sandy, kissed-sun, warm place to be then you can have it, you just have to go to the north side. You prefer somewhere a little more chilly, with big and thick forest, perhaps? Of course, inside of the land. Somewhere cold with ice, ask you'll be serve. Anything is possible land of all beauty, and talking about beauty, of all the precious jewels there were one, a treasure, that would change everything.
"Tarsenis, my love ,the time grows nearer", says the wise lady.
" Sagibel, mon coeur what shall we do", replies the husband.
" My love I'm afraid that at this point it's not what shall we do but can we do. If we can do something;", the beauty says with a sight.
" Just tell me what to do, mon amour. You know I'll do anything. After all we've been through this cannot end like that.", he tells taking her in his arms.
" Tarsenis, my love this is not an end, just a different story, it might not be pleasant at first but we will face it, like with always do", she smiles to him.
"I'm worried about her, such a great faith in such little hand. All the future on her petite shoulders. We have to help her!"
"We cannot interfere with the destiny and you know it. It's too dangerous and before you talk I know that nothing is too dangerous for you but it can be for her."
" We could show her the future?"
" That would kill her!", she replies with a sad face.
" How can such a giant destiny rest upon such a tiny little cutie thing! She's so precious, merci mon coeur for that perfect gift! Our little girl', his blue eyes were shining so bright.
" My love, I wish so much we could keep her."
"No."
" If she stays here, everyone would know who she is and she would be in a greater danger and that cannot happen.", bright tears roll down on her face.
" I know mon coeur, you're right like always. It's so hard to say goodbye when we just met.". They both look in total awe in the crib. What a delicate, perfect, beautiful thing. Such a soft skin, sweet voice, little plumpy hands and feets, the chubbiest rosy cheeks, golden curls on top of her hair, the most beautiful eyes.
" We can see the all universe in those pretty eyes", he says in awe.
" Yes, I know. We did great", the wife says hugging her husband.
" That is what we called made of love! That's true. The product of soulmates. The balance in the world. All good and bad, anything. Everything."
"I know.". They keep staring at that amazing thing, full of life, full of magic. The one they created. Theirs. Her.
" That beautiful thing came out of us? I would rip the earth down in order to protect her. I would even burn the skies down, so I could save her. Anything, everything for her.
" We have to take her away from us. And that tears me apart, we have to this but for now, let's enjoy what we make. That beautiful thing came out of us."
A few days passed and they decide it was the unfortunate time to let little baby goes.
" We have to give away, now or he'll be to late. She's too powerful, they can feel her. I did my best to enact her power, they will come in due time, when she'll be ready."
The couple of lover looks at the sky with all the stars above they feel protect. Most important they feel like she was protect, and after they had blessed their daughter with the sacred waters, they came here. They live above, on the highest spot of the land, so now they bring us to the river so she could take her down to the nearest village.
Sagibel sings to the river so the nymph of the water can bring their daughter into safety. O,e last hug, they say. One last kiss, one last look.
" She won't even remember us. She won't have us to protect her. I'll kill everyone who try to hurt her. I swear!"
" Tout doux my love. We shall name her so she will always have a part of us without even do anything. Maybe S for me or T for you", they look at each other in love and love surrounding them.
"As bright as the more precious gemstone, as pure as the Sacred Waters, as sweet at the greatest honey. Shall the stars be amazed, afraid because the most beautiful one is born. Don't be afraid, she will be fair and she will save us all.".
They both or the tree of them should I say, look at the stars and the little baby raise her both hands, first towards her parents and then towards the sky like she wish to reach out and touch the shining points.
" That's it. You don't have to reach to touch, you are already one. The greatest. You are…", he says out of breathe.
" She….is….perfect"
Naming her baby, with a name that fits so perfectly was a little satisfaction, a little joy. Now they would also have a part of her. The moment was so pure and so perfect so magic, that with wink an all constellation appears. For her, for their family. It warms their heart.
They let her down the river, the water darks but still protecting under the eyes of the nymphe.
" A bientôt my love Stella. See you one day mon Amour our Stella". They both say. Sagibel and Tarsenis look until she disappears out of sight then look into each other eyes for what seems like an eternity. To find the strenght to go on, to find the strength to stand tall because who knows what the future will bring them.
