A crow dark as a shadow was flying in the heavy rain. The crow saw a little shallow light. It flew there and as it got closer to it, it was more and more visible. It was a little wooden house in the middle of the field. The roof were made of straw. The sides were made of logs which was cover in moss. As the crow landed on the roof and saw a man with in leather cloak it look rather worn torn on the side and had a claw mark on the back of it. The man knock on the little house door. The crow got curios of who is the stranger might be and as it tried to look at the man face but a huge lightning stroked in the near river. The crow got scared and flew away and as it looked back he only saw a baby and a strange oddly big looking egg.
An old elf lady opened the door, she looked like a mess. Her left ear and right eyed was missing, on her hands she had many scars most likely battle scar, her hair was like a man's hair cut with short on the side long on the top she was rather muscular then thin. her eye was worn out like she haven't slept since she was born. She looked around and saw a human baby in the basket on the floor and she started shouted into the darkness
"is any body there?!"
The man with the leather cloak was standing on the roof.
"Are you sure about this?!You really want to leave your child to some old hag you don't even know?!"
As the leather cloak man, heard these words a drop was sliding off of his cheek he was not sure if it was a drop of rain or his tear and as quite as he could he said
"I wish that I could just hug you one more time!"
The baby started crying. The old elf lady was not sure what to do. She wanted to leave the baby outside. But she knew if she would do that .She wouldn't be any better then them.
"sigh" "Alright, alright come on."
She picked the baby up with the basket, so she wouldn't have touch him. And brought him into the house.
"And let's bring your little friend as well"
And she went outside to pick up the egg .And brought them both into the little wooden house .She put down the egg in front of the fire place.
"you must be hungry, do you want something soup?"
The baby smiled as bright as the fire what was lighted the whole house, and stared clapping.
"Okay, then I make some for you, you just wait here, okay?"
She putted the baby with the basket next to the egg , she started preparing for the soup. First she boiled some water in the caldron which was hanging on the fire place. Then she chop up some mushroom and some carrot and a bunch of vegies and she throwed them into the boiling water and started stirring with a wooden stick. As the soup was finished she searched for some bowls.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
She ladle some into the bowl. And she looked at the baby.
"you still hungry?"
The baby smiled and clapped again
She putted the bowl on the table and she gone back for the baby she crouched and as she reached to pick up the baby her hands stopped in front of the baby. And she started grinding her teeth.
"come on, he hasn't done anything so why can't I?"
a tear drop was sliding of her cheek and landed on the baby hand. Then the baby grabbed her pinkie finger and looked at her confused as if he wanted to understand why she is crying
"I'm sorry, I know it not your fault. i should been better...I should been a better mother "
She looked at the baby holding her pinkie and smiling at her, she smiled back with tear in her eyes and words stuck in her throat. She picked the baby up and started walking towards the table. She sat down onto an old chair. She fed the baby the whole bowl of soup
"wow you must have been starving if you ate all of my cooking, was it good?"
The baby belched a huge one.
"I take that as a yes"
The storm started to get worse and the rain drops knock on the windows. The baby looked to the window and said.
"mmmamma, mmamma"
"I don't think it your mama kid"
"Mmammma,mmamma"
"Alright ,alright let's go and check it "
She stood up and started walking towards the fogy window she swiped a line with her hand.
"see that's only the rain"
"Rain?"
"Yes the rain" she smiled while she said it
"Now say Elena"
"Elma"
"No no, Ele-na"
"Elma"
"Alright we will practice it later, so what about you what is your name?"
The baby let out another huge belched
"what do you think of blech?"
The baby had a blank like he wanted to say no.
"okay, that face is means no in my book, hmm "
She started walking toward the fire place and picked a picture of the shelf top of it. The smile that was made by the little baby, started to fade away as she looked more and more at that picture.
"How is William sounds to you?"
The baby started smiling and laughing and clapped and the smile came back to her.
"I knew you would like it"
She putted the picture back and looked at the egg it was a rather big egg .The egg had rather strange markings. Elena got curios.
"wow I had never seen a dragon egg like this before this markings are incredible"
She reached out and wanted to touch the egg and as her finger tips touch the markings her fingers were burn
"ouch!! ouch!! that was a bad idea ,you must be a fire race"
A green shallow green light appeared from her burned finger tips and started to heal the burned parts.
"hmm what do you think of fire fly or sparky ohh fire heat sound cool to me. what do you say... or think of it?"
William didn't reacted, the lighting stroked again into the woods.
"ohh i got it ,how is lightning sound like I know it not his race name but as a nick name maybe?
William was still quite
"storm? tornado?"
(William) "Rain"
"Rain? he is from the fire race you can't name it Rain, that's like naming a dog cat"
William looked deeply into Elena's eyes
"Okay ,okay you win, Rain it is"
William smiled and laughed
"Alright alright mister but it's time to sleep now"
She started walking towards her room opened a a drawer and took some clothes out of so William could fit into it. She placed William into it. The torn a little napkin size off a fabric sheet.
"here"
And she wrap him like a cocoon
"I know it not as countable as your basket but it soaked in water, so you can't sleep in that"
She walked to the door
"Good night William."
And she walked out and closed the door. She walked towards the table and she picked it up and dragged it front of Rain ,She walked toward a shelf full of books and took all of them onto the table.
"Now then, let's see what you really are Rain"
