Osteo Striga Lore:
“Victory is not in the unmaking of an enemy, but in the re-making of an enemy into your blade.” —9th Understanding, 7th Revision of Sorrow
Ah, pardon us. It just seems like he’s always hungry. When I first became a mother, I didn’t realize how much time would just be spent feeding him. Do you mind? Thank you.
No, he doesn’t look much like me, I know. There are a lot of orphans these days. I heard him crying from… oh my, it seems like half a world away. It was chance, honestly. I never thought of myself as a parent, but caring for another little life… it’s taught me so much.
May I?
Sorry, I don’t know why I’m sharing so much with you like this. You just seem easy to talk to. And becoming a mom has really given me a lot more insight into the little connections between people. I used to focus so much on my work. I actually lost a few friends over it.
Oh! Shh, shh, shh… there we go. That’s right. Growing babies need their calcium.
Now I can see what matters. The beauty in small things and quiet moments. In watching others light up when they see him. In the way meeting new people broadens him.
I had another child, you know. That was… before. I didn’t keep him safe. It’s for the best. He’s… safe now.
Besides, it means I can appreciate this little one so much more. Just the two of us.
I love my little Striga.
And he’s always… so… hungry.
