TIP: Eclipses

True Amazonian

As time camence River had learned a lot about her family she has never know about her from her mother's side. She got to learn about how  her grandmother, Accalia led her warriors to battle against vampires and how led the rest of her tribe to safety in this secret, magic place.

River suddenly stopped to take in the scenery, "Clara. Being here has been an eye opener and I've learnt a lot of things about me and my family's history but that's not exactly reason I'm here."

"Oh..?" Clara murmured surprised.

"Two things being me here. First my mother, Katharine. She knows things I don't yet understand. I need help finding her."

Clara nodded,"when is the last time you've seen her?"

"Few days after I was born." River said.

"Any particlar reason why she left so early."

"No, knew Katharine was having trouble..." she said hesitantly,"but I never thought she'll abandon you. If we've known....." Clara frowned sadly

"Its okay. She left with my uncle and raised into his family. I was happy where I was. I never felt the need to know about my biological parents." River smiled sadly as she looked anyway but Clara.

"And now?"

"Let's say losing everything makes you see things from a different angle. Like it or not. I need my mother." Tears threatened to fall.

"We all do." Clara said sympathizing with River,"what's the second reason?" Clara narrowed her eyes at River.

"The lunar eclipse."

"Ah the blood moon." Clara hummed in realization.

"Yes, its fast approaching and I don't know what to do."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean my body is going changes. I'm stronger, faster than I was a few months ago...and..." River hesitates,"I have this thirst and can't seem to quench. And what I read about the blood moon and what it does to a werewolf. I'm worried."

"The origin of werewolves. But that's origin of werewolves not shapeshifters. They have no association with the moon. But it can be different for you." Clara said,"the truth is I don't know how to help you."

"So you can't do anything." River said slightly defeated.

"I never said that."

River looked at her with hopeful eyes,"so there is another way?"

"Yes. Thalia."

"Who's Thaila and what can she do to help me."

"Thalia is the mother of shapeshifters."

"So in other words she created them."

"Yes, if you want answers. There is no better place than to ask her."

"So how can I find her?"

"That part is going to be slightly difficult."

"Why?" River frowned getting worried.

"She died over a thousand years ago."

River stared at Clara confused,"how can she help me if she's dead." She slightly yelled in frustration.

"I can help you communicate with her."

"How?"

"Its not going to be easy but considering you're her descent it shouldn't be that hard." Clara said.

"Descent..?"

"Yes, your reincarnation of Thalia, mother of the shifters." Clara said.

"A reincarnation? You're saying I was her before I became me." River said slowly so she could understand.
