A Nightheart Is Born

[Goldd 126]

A Nightheart is Born

 

The moon shone upon Nightheart Isle. Suddenly a scream emitted from the house and crying was heard. Inside Xexus Nightheart sat next to his wife Echo, looking down upon a very beautiful creature. Echo held it in her arms. This creature was the heir of the Nighthearts; the very embodiment of hope within the family. Both parents stared down at her. She had glistening gold eyes, ash skin. Light blue hair already had begun to spring from her round head. Her ears were pointy and very dark elven. She was a Nightheart through and through and her name was Rhea. At last the long expected Nightheart had been born. Xexus took the baby in his arms and walked outside. He held her up to the shining moon and began to speak, looking rather silly with his ruffled hair and distressed face.

 

"Velulaei! I thank you for this gift. I promise eternal prayer from the Nighthearts, as have my ancestors before me promised!"

 

Xexus then promptly walks back to his him. He lays the baby in its crib as it coos.

*Echo lies splayed out on the bed and snoring like a [albeit cute] bear, exhausted as anything.*

Rhea Nightheart sleeps in her new home, with family all around her. Little does she know, is that she will be put into the beliefs of the Nighthearts, and will spend most of her time praying. As she sleeps she dreams of what could be and what could not. In this, her first night in this world, she dreamt of the moon and the stars around it, she dreamt of life.
