The daughter of Faeleth-Naoise O'Rourke stood, facing the tomb of her mother. Rage was writ upon her brow- confusion- mourn. A letter was clasped in her pallid palms. Her whole life had been shrouded in a lie, and there she stood, tears befallen from her ire'd gaze, studying the grooves and engravements within the stone.

 

The stone read, 'Here lies Faeleth-Naoise O'Rourke, beloved mother...'

 

"Mother." The girl scoffed, her lip quivering as she spoke to the stranger's grave. A tomb of a woman she never met. But anger was quickly curdled to longing- an awful, wrenching sob leaving her.  "Why did yea leave mea?- why did yea give up!" Her voice broke as she exclaimed through the rain that began to fall. 

 

Had she not been enough? From her first moments as a babe, had she been undeserving of a mother?

 

Einin stared at the stone- awaiting a reply- a sign, anything.

 

Yet the rain continued to fall, and one never came.
