Contemplation lost in Misery

The young infant child sat beside the old man who tended the ill in the temple, he was stroking her hair as he often did in attempt to soothe  her. She would not shed tears, for in her torment there was no escape.  She hurt physically, for since the day of her birth she had been passed  back and forth to the sadistic individuals that shared her mothers  desires, Her body aged before it grew, at six weeks she resembled a  two year old, her mind twisted and mutilated for their sick  experiments, it was bad enough the drow blood aged inside her before  her human half, She wanted to die, There would be no peace in that  for her however.

So she sat with him, the man that had shown her the only kindness she  had ever known since she was born, He wanted to take her away, Hide  her away, keep her safe, but it would not be lasting, Her mother would  come for her, Her mother wanted her to suffer...

She could read his thoughts, some small feeling of communication for  her since her words had yet to come together, she didn't know how or  why she could, only that she could, it was a swirling haze of irradescent  beauty, in that haze she heard the song of his heart. He loved her as  his own, He's heart bled in sadness for the little child not  understanding why she suffered at her mothers hands so, Lyvinnia  knew though, she heard it in her mother..

She was a bastard, a reminder of betrayal. She would suffer more yet.
