The Forgotten Wolf The Tears of Odin

'No one should know about this'.

An unknown voice told the unknown woman as she made her way down the cliff of Ezra (A place where no one goes).

The voice continued.

'They will kill her, but they do not know who she is. A time will come, when they will plead but their plea would fall on deaf ears. That day, they will realize their mistakes, but it would be too late".

"I know that. But why must you save this ill wolf that would soon die if not dead by now, why?" The lady asked. One could have thought she was speaking to herself.

'You don't know, do you? She is the future Odin, Odin has been re-born'

"But only the royals are born with Odin, how can Odin be re-born into a human, when it is just a mark all royals in the Crescent Moon kingdom have", the woman said.

'A time will come when the real story will unfold. No one knows the story of the Ancient, of love. Odin will come'.

The woman didn't say anything regarding that, she continued her journey down Ezra.

'It is here, wait here, the voice said as the woman came to a halt.

She sat down on a large stone, waiting for the child.

**************************

"Your majesty, the queen has just put to bed. She gave you a girl". One of the royal senior midwife told the waiting king. King  Reed who had been pacing around since his wife went into Labour stopped in a halt, turned to face the royal midwife and smiled. The king didn't need to be told twice before he majestically walked into the room where his wife, Queen Annabel  was, she was sitting on the bed she gave birth to a few minutes ago, holding up a little bundle in her hands, her face twisted in a disgusting way.

The rest of the royal midwives bowed their head and left the room. 

When King Reed got to his wife, he wondered why his wife had that look on her face. But when he got to take a look at the child, his face also was filled with hatred. "She doesn't have the mark of Odin like she was supposed to". King Reed said angrily.

The queen who had been holding her baby suddenly fling the child out of her hands. A cracking sound echoes around them, as the baby's soft body makes an impact with the wall where the queen had flung her. The child cried out in pain. Maybe the child had thought that her cry would soften her mother's heart who would help to smooth the pains spreading quickly round her body, but alas she was wrong. Her mother was not affected by her cries nor her father. They all silently watch her as her cries raise the more.

King Reed without saying a word left the room. As soon as he was outside the room he turned to one of the palace guards. "Go and call me the High Priestess". He said and left them going back to his throne.

Back in the room Queen Annabel wished with all her heart that it should die from there. She hasn't even given the child it's first breast milk before she started praying to the Moon Goddess to take away the child very quickly.

The door opened to reveal a boy of 13 years old with a girl of 13 came rushing into the room to meet their mother who had just given birth to the most abominable. Mere looking at them you will know that they were twins. The girl had beautiful dark blue hair, her eyes were crystal, sparkling. She was utterly beautiful from her head to toe, in fact she is the most beautiful girl in the kingdom. The king and queen were always proud of her. The only difference with her brother was his hair color, his were gold just like his father.

"Mother, father has just told us about the 'it' that you gave birth to. Is it true that she wasn't born with the mark of Odin?". Prince Eric asked, he was a bit taller for his age, a troublesome boy who loves disrespecting and treating the poor as cabbages. He was the Crown Prince after all and all must obey him. 

"Yes, that's it on the floor".

 Princess Erica quickly went over to where the baby stared at her for a moment and said "She's so ugly Mother. I wonder why the Moon Goddess let her live". 

Prince Eric went over to meet his twin sister and looked down on his younger sister, her face red from all the cries, and shook his head. "She is not only ugly Erica, she's disgusting as well".

The baby had quite down a bit seeing that her mother doesn't want to attend to her nor anyone else. Everyone just hates her. Was she truly ugly? She wondered.

Prince Eric immediately kick the baby with the sole of his boot. The Baby cries filled the room again, this time louder. Erica began laughing at the plight of the child and started making faces at her.

If it was a normal child, it would have long been dead as a normal newborn baby can't take such a hit. A wolf can, and can heal at a faster rate.

" You better stay away from that hideous thing before you contact her ugliness" Queen Annabel told her two precious children. 

They all watched as the baby cried out the most.

Why is life so unfair? The baby asked herself.

Why do I see so much hatred in my parents eyes and my siblings?

Why do they hate me this much?

With no answer to her questions, she stopped crying. What did she know?

Queen Annabel stood up immediately from the bed "Come quickly lets us go and meet your father, I heard he sent for the high priestess. Let us know the fate of this disgusting child". The queen said and they left the room leaving the little baby behind.
