She had only wanted to have a working marriage and a happy family. All of her efforts had been towards that goal. Despite that, her husband leaves her for another woman after the loss of her unborn child, and just as she starts to pick herself up, she dies in a car accident.

But this isn't the end of her story.

Her spirit is picked up by her brother. He happens to be a beginner god who needs help raising the hero who is supposed to save his fledgling world. Thinking he is offering her a long-sought-after opportunity to be a mother, she readily agrees, and he sends her down to his world with the gift of healing and a Methuselah grade body to aid her on her quest. She quickly finds her little boy and is overjoyed to have someone to love and baby at last. But this hero doesn't want her as his mother. He wants her as something else.

Raising a Hero

Business went down with the temperature. I came to learn, with the cooling days, that the green spots on my dress weren't actually because of my sweat having a weird chemical reaction to the dye, but because the dye itself was a rare, earth magic dye that changed according to temperatures over an extended period of time. Aka, a 'seasonal' dress. It started out where it soaked up my sweat because those were the coolest parts of my dress that got the least amount of sunshine. Oh, apparently sunshine had something else to do with it to. 


Kind of a bad idea for a working woman's dress, if I do say so myself. 


I learned this through one of the dressmaker ladies at my local clothing store while I was out getting the quick growing Gus new clothes, and me an even lighter, summer friendly dress to help prevent another black out. She happened to be an earth magician and demonstrated my dresses qualities by very kindly turning the green spots on my dress back to blue.
