It is said time can heal all wounds. I have found to much time can tear them apart.

Can people hurt by tragedy, and turmoil, and years of anger, sadness, loneliness and despair find their way through a horrific event, something nightmare are made of, and persevere?  Can they find each other and reconcile the pain to find out what really matters?

A mother and daughter are about to find out.  On their long path of recovery, they go on an adventure.  Looking for fun and finally some healing from an old loss.  What starts out as magical, quickly turns bad as all hell breaks lose.  But they find strength together to pull through and help others.  They never would have guessed at the path they would find themselves on, the people they meet and the adventures yet to come.

They find themselves in the middle of an old fight.  Trying to help friends reconnect, and loved ones find the old flame. Never expecting bonds of friendship and love to touch them.  Has there been enough time and healing? Can they move ahead?  Can they help their new friends figure out if they are better together?

The Wish of a Broken Heart by LovelyLotus84
78 parts Ongoing
They say, "Be careful what you wish for." They say, "There's truth to every story." They say, "Karma's a B***h." A heart's wish is a powerful thing. But magic doesn't exist. Or so I thought. Now, a troll has found me. ************* Cara I can't... It hurts... Why? Am I not good enough? Not pretty enough? What did I do to be betrayed like this? I feel numb except for the gaping hole in my chest. The darkness starts creeping in. I wish... Heavens how I wish... Friday June 13th I don't know when, how, or why I ended up where I am, but here I am. As insane as it sounds, I am no longer on earth. I think. Maybe I'm dead. Or maybe I'm in a coma! One where I can feel a hell of a lot of pain and new scents are being created? Maybe, just maybe, I should have listened to Grandmother's crazy stories of magic in our blood and being careful what we wish for. They don't sound so crazy anymore. All I know is I'm on the ground, can't move, staring up at an impossibly blue sky through broken branches of trees I've never seen before. That's saying a lot. Botany is my favorite hobby. I think I have internal bleeding from falling through the three-story tall trees like a pinball. My only regrets are knowing my Mum will be in a panic, won't quit searching, and my sweet American Pit Bull Terrier, Nimuë, fell through with me. ************* Tavirian Our laws are clear. If we find any creature wounded past the point of healing, we kill them. It's a mercy. We've gotten a reputation for being ruthless and cannibalistic because of it. Hundreds of years ago, perhaps, but not anymore. I'm still a monster. I'm on my ancestral pilgrimage to present the spirits with my potential brides. I'm not thrilled with my options. My mate is out there, but the elders are pushing me to take one of our Tribe. When we come across a nearly dead, tiny human and her creature, I can't kill them. Especially now. I can use the pilgrimage to save them for now, but I'll need help.
