Dragon's curse

chapter eighty five, Thanatos past

I hope I can understand Thanatos when he tells me his story. I think he might just be lonely and if I can, I want to help him if I can but I don't want to think about what I might have to do if I can't help him. I have this sneaking suspicion that he may be a god but I don't know what kind.

Thanatos sat silently in the darkness that surrounded him as he waited for the next person to visit when they died.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from the darkness and said “Thanatos, I don't know if you can hear me but I need your help. My parents are killers and I am afraid that they might do something to me. I… I was hoping that you might dispose of them for me.”

Thanatos sighed as he said in an unknown language, “Open portal to the living world.”

In an instant, a patrol appeared out of the darkness and he quickly walked through the portal as it slowly disappeared behind him. He quickly exited through the other end of the portal and stood in the middle of the woods with a cabin that sat inches from him. 

Thanatos sighed as he said to himself, “This must be the place.”

Suddenly a loud woman's voice came from the cabin that yelled in anger, “Sara, you are dead to me! You want me and your father dead because we killed your little sister because she can't be cured from her illness. She wouldn't have been able to walk and in this world that is a cursed child!”

Another voice yelled back, “So if I was born like her then you would have killed me because what? Because my sister was cripoled? You are a monster!”

Thanatos silently said in a low voice, “Float.”

In an instant, Thanatos started to float into the air as if there was no gravity and slowly floated to the second window on the second floor. Once he reached the window, he looked inside to see what looked to be a little girls bedroom with a bunk bed and a small desk that sat in the corner against the wall. Suddenly, a little girl ran into the room and slammed the door behind her while flipping the light switch. Instantly, the light turned on as she slid down to the ground as she leaned against the door and started to cry. Thanatos slowly knocked  three times onto the window, the little girl slowly looked over towards the window to see what looked to be a young man dressed in a black cloak and what looked to be a sief in his hands. The little girl quickly got up from the ground and silently ran over to the window, she quickly opened the wind while wiping the tears from her face.

Once the window was completely opened, Thanatos asked “Are you the little girl that prayed to me?”  

The little girl nodded her head yes as she took a few steps back and watched as Thanatos slowly came into the cabin through the window.

“Now why would a little girl like you want your parents dead?” Thanatos asked with curiosity.

The little girl walked over to her bed and quickly sat down onto her bed as she stayed silent while looking over at Thanatos. 

Thanatos sighed as he asked “You ain't much of a talker aren't you? What’s your name?”

The little girl whispered a low voice, “My name is Sara.”

“Now Sara, tell me the reason that you wish that your parents were dead.” Thanatos said as he sat a few inches from her on the bed silently.

Sara breathed in deeply as she said “My parents believe that if you are born with any type of disease then they don't deserve to live in this world and that they are cursed. My sister was born with hemophilia and my parents killed her for that when we could have just given her away to some people that would have taken her in.”
