"for all intents and purpose I am your mother and you are my child Cain"
Shock and confusion.
That's what I experienced at first then a little bit of curiosity "you're ment to be my mother are you serious?" I ask, then with a bit more force then I intended "if you're my mother then who am i ment to be exactly?".
She looks at me and giggles a little and said "Do you remember my name?" "Of course, Torva messor" I replied "Well my dear my next question is how is your latin studies?" She replies with another giggle.
Then all the dots connect and my mind clicks she's.. Death...
The one who will reap all and one.. the Grim Reaper.. this young beautiful women still slightly covered in gold blood is the last thing you'll see when your time comes.
As my mind starts to spiral downwards into that little rabbit hole she snaps my attention back by flicking me on the head. "Ouch, was that really needed?" I groaned "well it was that or watch the smoke that would soon come out of that little head of yours by over thinking".
Over thinking..
'How is she making this seem like its not a big deal' " ok sorry please explain what I am then and if your my mother why i have no memory of you and what exactly is going on?" I blurt out with a little bit of fustratin.
"Ok ok I'm getting there I'm just trying not to overwhelm you is all" she says "So first off yes I am as a term you know called Death or the Grim Reaper that's a name known in the lower realms.. don't ask I'll get there ok" 'I didn't even open my mouth tho.. ' "You are one of my three children 'the original spirts' you have a twin brother and a younger sister" I notice a small tear start to fall but as it does my mother turns her face away and wipes it.
"Each of you three siblings were ment to be a beacon for those that came next to follow and I had hoped for you all to guide them, you'r sister was ment to be the beacon of life that guided those through birth and bring life to the lands and sea, you'r brother was ment to guide them through the middle of life how to live how to help each other and support the first gift of life" There I saw anger..disgust and anger "And finally you were ment to be there at their end to guide them onwards and to protect them to the next life".
"You actually know what happened next but I locked those memories when... I sent you to your exile" "what! You exiled me!" Angrily i growl.
Tho thinking back to that I wasn't to sure why i was angry I didn't have those memories of that life to have and ties to be angry about..
"Yes I exiled you I'm sorry for that and that mistake has cost me.. no has cost all of us allot" she says with a sad ashen face " but now I need to return what was taken but I warn you it won't just be the memories that I locked away then but all the memories from all the lives you've lived after and till now"
"Wait how many times have I been reborn?"I ask hesitantly.
"Roughly.. One thousand"
"One thou...." and by that point her finger jabbed my forehead.. and then the flood.
