Chapter 0
In a cave far away from the city but has a few of its majestic buildings, a birth was happening. A woman was giving birth to her children and her husband was there to help in the process. Though they know there are doctors in the city, because of what they are, it was best if this prosses was done alone and in seclusion. The woman tried all her might to push her babies out of her body, but it was taking a toll on her fragile body. Finally, after many hours, her children were born. A boy and a girl. Both were little and beautiful. Her husband cleaned the babes, fixed them up, and his wife, and once wrapped in a blanket, he presented them to her. "They are beautiful my love." He said.
His wife was panting as she slowly lost her strength and life. She looked at her children and smiled. "They are perfect, just like you. None of myself is visible which will grant them safety in this world and they will never suffer hardship as we did." She started to feel weak. "My love, my time is almost gone, you must take the babies, leave this cave, have a normal life with our children, and keep our past safe and a secret from them."
Her husband started to cry. "You mustn't leave me, dear wife."
She smiled at him. "I must. Their birth took a toll on my body." She started to tear up. "I'm afraid I wouldn't even see them grow up to be children, teenagers, and then adults. I will be missing all of their milestone and hardships. Please forgive me, my husband. Please forgive me for leaving you all alone." She put a hand on his cheek.
He put his hand on hers. "Never. There is nothing to forgive. One day our children will fix our mistakes, finish our missions, and bring peace to everyone, we will one day see," He looked at the city. "our world will look like this one." He said. Then the twins started to cry. "Sing to them, my love." He started to cry. "So they can forever hear your voice."
His beloved held out her arms as he gently placed them in her arms as she sang to them their first and last song from their mother. "🎶 Hush now my babies, be still, love, don't cry. Sleep as you're rocked by the stream. Sleep and remember my last lullaby. So I'll be with you when you dream.🎶" Her son was asleep from the tone but her daughter was still awake, eyes opened remembering her mother's face and voice. Their mother kissed them on the head as she beckons her husband to take the little ones and leave. He was hesitant at first, but then he turned back, gave her a kiss, and then ran out of the cave to the city. As she saw him run, with one arm she reached out to them singing them a small final prayer. "🎶 River, oh, river, flow gently for me. Such precious cargo you bear. Do you know somewhere they can live free? River, deliver them there.🎶" Her breath started to quicken, her vision became bleary, and as she looked up at the ceiling of the cave, a white open appeared before her, and saw 3 people in the opening, wearing their garbs, their helmets, their arm braces, and their weapons. She reached out to her Gods and with her final breath, she released her final words. "🎶Deliver us🎶" Then her arm went limp to the ground as she finally passed away and joined the royal concert in the sky with her Gods and though there will be judgment for what she has done while she was alive, she has earned repentance thanks to her husband and her children as the years goes on.
