Please listen to this while reading. I love how it sounds and I think it fits the tune.





The wind blew harshly in the night, her hair cut and chopped against the grain of natural hair flow. a swollen woman ran as fast as her body would let her in the dark night. Rain poured, soaking her through her birthing kimono. She was tired; she was so exhausted, but she had to keep going lest she wanted to be found by the Fatui again. Hilichurls watched her from the shadows but did not seem to threaten her, but a few followed the pregnant woman as she stumbled and fell to her knees crying, her feet bleeding, her body soaked and freezing, They knew she wouldn't last long out here, especially so close to Dragon spine's cold winter air. They chattered to themselves before the biggest hilichurl walked over with some of the smaller ones and covered her with some of their furs. The woman looked up, shocked. She had no clue the hilichurls were there and looked afraid briefly before they lifted her up with care and carried her back to their camp to give her warmth and shelter.


Three weeks had gone by since the hilichurl tribe near Dragon Spine took the pregnant woman in, and y/n couldn't have been happier. She was clothed and fed, even if the items were stolen from other people, all she cared about was tending to her six-month swollen belly. y/n didn't love the idea of being pregnant at all, if anything she hated it.  But holding onto her belly she couldn't help but smile, only because she felt safe with this unborn child which was odd to her considering who the child also belonged to...Childe...  She closed her eyes in anger before a hilichurl cooed at her, making her look up with wide eyes as they motioned for her to come outside.

" Alright alright, can you help me up?"  she asked while holding one hand out.  The hilichurl hopped up and down before rushing over to her and helped her stand on her feet, making her smile in thanks to them as she waddled outside for lunch. y/n was pretty happy here, even though she was saddled with a child she didn't ask for, she was still happy and rather raise the child herself than let the fatui have their way with her child... As she sat down she began to let her thoughts drift while the hilichurl were all cooking or playing some bit of music to make the day more enjoyable. She thought back to her time being a part of the Fatui, she was the forbidden 12th harbinger of the fatui called The mother of death. Their leader...thought it would be a wonderful idea to test that theory to see if she would give birth to a monster of death and destruction, so they paired her with Childe... who was supposed to be their strongest fighter.  y/n wanted nothing to do with childbirth or pregnancy and told them this but...childe was the only one that agreed with her, even though he said it was because he didn't want to be tied down by a child. The next thing she could remember, she and childe woke up together and they realized quickly what happened...they were forced through some dark magic... She hated it so much, the days and weeks that went by as she slowly started to show her pregnancy, by the fifth-month childe had started hovering over y/n trying to keep her and the baby they didn't want, to be protected and safe. This infuriated y/n so much so that in the dead of night she tried to flee only to be caught by the guards, This ended up angering their leader and thus she was locked in Childe's room in nothing but a birthing Kimono for when the time came for her to give birth to their child.  it took her one whole month to break out of the Fatui base and escape, she couldn't find her weapons, her armor, or even her normal clothing so she had to leave through the snowy region with just her birthing kimono and bare feet.  y/n's eyes darkened at the memories more and more until some food was pushed towards her making her jerk from her thoughts.

"Oh! thank you! and sorry! I was just lost in my thoughts again."  she said while the hilichurl giant nodded his head in understanding and pat her head gently, this made y/n smile lightly before she began to pick at her food and eat.  She honestly hoped nothing changed and she could stay with this tribe for a while longer.  Oh, but she knew she couldn't forever...not with the fatui and Childe chasing her and the baby down.  No, she must get to the dragon, one of the aspects have to protect her from them.. she can't let the Fatui create a monster with her baby...
