The Journey - History: Day 15
The wedding was small but beautiful. The bride and groom could not get through the ceremony without each shedding a tear of joy.
The couple then hid themselves away in a cabin in the forest for their first night together. Of course, the passion thereof was sweet between the lovers, and they lay together late into the night before slowly falling into a tender slumber.
Then the past rose up to claim its favor. Amlerka came to Toresti within the dreamscape, as horrible an apparition as ever. The Dark God called for his child, and was so obsessed with his desire that he did not notice the change in his demon. The black was gone from Toresti's eyes, but Amlerka went on with his nightmare.
Toresti awoke next to his love, and swept her face deep into his memory to never be forgotten. How could he love such a woman so much and never give her a child? How could he keep that joy from her when all he wanted was to see her smile? Yet, what choice did he have? To bring a child, her child and his, into the world only to be raised by the God of Death, the evil shadow, no, that was not a choice.
So, for many years of their marriage Toresti slipped his wife the right drugs to keep her from conceiving, and she never knew. In all truth she never thought of having a child until she was older, and the happiness she felt just being married was enough, for a while. Then her mother died, and her sister died, and her nephew died, and her niece died, all in ways that could not be helped. Liiruhyi had a hard time of being happy then, and she begged and begged the heaven's to send her a child, because she felt if she were barren she could not live and be a good wife.
Toresti heard those pleas when he lay in bed at night, and he cried for her. He knew how to stop her pain, but he also knew the consequences. But in the end, he knew that it had to happen. So he put away the medicines and in just a few short, sweet months, Liiruhyi brought the child into the world. That child was a girl, a little baby girl, and Toresti looked into the baby's green-brown eyes and lost his soul. This little thing, he knew would change everything, and so he named her. Cassioankaiey.
