Death Bed

The night was calm and quiet. Only the sound of crickets was heard in the mountain village of Xidi. Down the local inn is heard the voice of a woman in labour, the local midwife has lost hope, her husband is frantic and praying. They were visitors. In distress the man prayed to the Idina the goodness of the land. She is known to grant wishes and later kill the wish maker. A ruthless evil spirit that lives in the water.

In the moment of distress a young lady, dressed in a white gown and fair as snow entered and walked to the husband and said " I, Idina am willing to save your wife and daughter, but a price must be paid"

"What price" asked the shocked man

"It has not been decided" was the quick reply
