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.

Suggested for ages 14+.

Raising a Hero

Doctor's diagnosis: severe magic exhaustion. Prescription: rest, food, absolutely no stress, and definitely no magic. 


Mary and Ulyssia both had scolding and congratulations in turn for me. They had somehow already heard about Sir Fairenson's new baby girl and, once they had finished scolding me for freaking out, proceeded to include me in their plans to tie a quilt for the new mother. It was apparently a tradition in the mansion that, whenever someone in the workforce had a new baby, female servants who were interested or new the family would get together to make a quilt together for them. I readily agreed.


"But if you're too tired," said Ulyssia with a grandmotherly pat on my hand. "It's alright. You've already given quite the welcome to the world gift, I dare say."
