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

Worried that something had happened to him, when I woke up in time for dinner I poked my head out to see if there was anyone I could ask about him. I'd even made it to the staircase before I remembered that I had told Sir Fairenson that I'd be in my room all day. I'd just turned around, planning on heading to Roman's office to ask him if he knew, when I saw Roman turning around the corner from said office, most likely on his way down to dinner.


His face lit up with a smile on seeing me. 


I returned the smile out of habit, but my insides jerked tight, remembering Gus's words about him. Could it be that Roman had a side to him much darker than I had anticipated?
