Pluma oh my god
That story
Is
Just
Wow
That got dark really quickly
It's one I've never heard of before ;-;

[Syn]

I'm kinda devastated I missed an entire bwolf litter. There was no warning they were going to be there at all and with them only available for one day...this is not what I've come to expect from CS. Please a little more notice on extremely limited time adopts in the future is all I'm asking. Because now trying to track them down for my bwolf collection is nothing but stress since people seem to only be swapping.

The Story of a Mother



Once upon a time, there was a mother. She had watched over her sick child for three days straight, but the moment she rested her eyes, Death came into their home and took away her son. She rushed out into the street, where she met a woman, who was the Night, and she asked which way Death had gone. The Night said Death walks faster than the wind and never returns what he takes, but the Mother still insists to follow after him. Night says she has to go into the forest, but she will first have to sing every lullaby she has sung for her child.

She goes into the forest and finds a thorn bush, who tells her which way to go, but only after she has warmed the bush, by pressing it against her chest, causing her to bleed. Then she comes to a lake, who offers to bring her over to the other side in exchange for her eyes, so she cries them out.

The now blind mother reaches a greenhouse, where Death cares for flowers and trees that represents human lifes. The mother finds a little sick plant, recognizing it as her child by its heartbeat. An old woman, who helps Death care for the plants, tells the mother, in exchange for her hair, that when Death returns, she must threaten to rip up the other flowers. This will frighten Death, as he will have to answer to God, who’s the only one who decided when plants shall be ripped up and planted in the garden of paradise.

Death comes back, carrying the child and is surprised to see the mother is there, curious to how she could have come there before him, to which she replies “I am a mother”. She then threatens to rip out two flowers, but immediately let go, when Death asks if she wish to make two other mothers as unhappy as herself, by taking away their children.

Death then gives the mother back her eyes and asks her to look into a well. Here she sees two different children, one growing up to a bright, happy and loving future, while the other only have misery, grief and despair ahead of them. Death tells the mother that one of these futures is the one of her child. She screams in fear and asks which one is the future of her child, as she would rather see her child be carried into the kingdom of God now, than suffer such a miserable life. Death says he cannot tell her this and she will have to decide if she wants her child back or if he shall take it with her.

The mother wrings her hands, gets down on her knees and prays to god, saying “Do not listen to me when I ask against your will. Do not listen to me, do not listen to me, do not listen to me!” and thus Death leaves, taking her child with him into the unknown land.

... I think I know why I've never heard of that story now.

Oh it is very real indeed. It was written by Hans Christian Andersen in 1847. Not all fairytales are glitter, magic and "happily ever after".

But do not worry, peeps! This one is really the darker one of the litter xD
