A Difficult Birth
High in the snow-capped Murgh Mountains there lived a hunts man and his fair wife. Life was hard for them; they had little money and lived in the most secluded part of the island, contact with other humans was few and far between though they still lived a long and happy life. There love for each other spurred them on then one day, to her delight, Chance became pregnant.
The couple had being waiting along time for the world to bless them with a child but Chance's pregnancy was hard, towards the end she was in much pain, she lay on the cold stone floor of there cave sweat dripping from her forehead in a delirious state. Rhys took good care of her but their food supplies were running low and against his own will he was forced to go hunting in the forest. He left Chance asleep with a bowl of water by her side in case she awoke in his absence, he grabbed his bow and hoped someone was watching over her and guiding her through her pain.
Chance awoke to a gripping pain in her stomach and an empty cave, she shouted for Rhys but heard no reply, however that was the least of her problems as she knew there child was soon to enter the world.
She was too weak to walk for help and there wasn't enough time so Chance had to deliver the child herself. It was painful without drugs but she managed and to her surprise she had twins. This would explain why she was in so much pain, and although she would have loved to raise the two children she knew it was impossible, neither Rhys nor her self had long term work and food was hard to come by in the forest. She decided to wait for Rhys to return for his opinion on what do to, he was probably forced to go and hunt for more food. One thing was for sure though; they were blessed to have both a healthy son and a daughter, even if they couldn't raise them.
