"Push, Mearia. Push." The doctors encouraged her.
The pains of child birth are agonizing, but she keeps at it. Mearia pushes to get her baby born. She can't wait untill she can hold her little child in her arms. She fights the pain with her memories of the events leading up to now. The days of such joy...

"Luca! Come here." Mearia shouted over the all the commotion of the workers. Luca, he seemingly favorite male slave, was just a hard laborer working for her neighbors. She liked to watch him work, and though she didn't have to, she would often come out and give him drinks when the sun was hot.

"Yes?" Luca walks over to her, taking a quick break from his duties. The family that owned him was on good terms with Mearia's family. As long as he got all his work done, they didn't seem to care if he took a few breaks. As he gets closer, he smiles. When no one could hear him, he talks to her. "I'm here, my love."
This romance lasted for weeks. She even invited him to bed with her. He was the only slave she seemed to sleep with, though few noticed that.

"Push!" The doctors call distracted her from her memory. "You need to do this. That baby girl is depending on you." The doctors soft, yet forceful voice, was encouraging.
The pains came back as her mind was sharply brought out of the past. The contractions pushing her small and delicate baby outward to freedom causing her discomfort. She once again fell into her memories as she was pushing.

"What do you think, sister? Can you feel anything from the baby?" Mearia asks her sister.
"I feel magic already coming from the child. She will be strong with magic. We will all be proud." Minlee says to her sister. "Its going to be a girl. Should we tell the others?" She lets off a gleeful giggle. She always did like spreading rumors and stories.
Mearia breathed a deep sigh of relief. "Would you be willing to teach her? I don't want just anyone raising my child."

The pain shot through her body again.
"Almost there. One more good push and she will be out."
She strained, unable to escape into her past. She must work on her future, as well as that of her soon to be born child.
Cries could be heard suddenly. The baby was born. The doctors suddenly tried to rush the child away. That meant only one thing..
"I want to see my child." Mearia demanded.

The doctors get quiet, and you can hear the healthy cries of the baby. "Everything is fine. You just rest. We'll take care of your baby."
"I want to see my child!" She starts to get up, even though she is exhausted. She sees her child as the doctors are walking out of the room. "You wont stop me." She walks over to the door, grabbing the cuff of the expecting doctor's uniform.
The doctor turns around. "Fine. Here is your baby. If you insist on seeing him." She hands the child over to Mearia, almost in disgust.

The doctor, a woman of course, was disgusted and impatient. "You have birthed a beautiful slave. May you be blessed with a daughter next." She sounded bored as she reached for the baby. The women in attendance already appeared scandalized by the mother's insistence to see her child, even though each of them was old enough to have had children of their own, and had attended so many births, that they should not have been surprised. Or maybe, what was surprising, was the doctors complacency.
"We must take him to a warm place," one of them spoke up.

"If you must. But I will go with you. He is my first after all." Mearia says, ready to follow, even in her weakened state. She looked at her child's eyes, becoming attached to the blue hue of them. "His name will be Tesunie." She says softly to herself, and the baby.
(This will be going from her escape and capture to Tesunie's up-bringing. Blipping through the highlights and important information of his life. Just letting you know that I have just begun to start! Mahahaha! mrgreen )

The doctor gestured again for the baby. "We must take care of the child," she informed her sternly.
The attendees were repositioning themselves around the mother, to take the babe by force if they must.
(I figured!)

After a few more moments, she handed the child over. "I think I should rest soon. I shall see my child to the room if you don't mind though. Then I shall rest."

The other women said nothing as they took the baby away. They did not intend to let the mother know where the baby was to be kept, nor to let her see it if she found out. Unhealthy interests such as this often dissipated once the baby was out of sight, and if necessary, once a doctor was brought in to explain her wish to see her baby was merely a reflection of her wish to have a real child, a daughter, whom she could care for much better than a simpleton boy.

She was stubborn, as was most of her family. Even though she felt tired from giving birth, she would not let this rest. She knew that as soon as the boy was out of her sight, she would never see him again. She could not let that happen. Her world's views weren't right. Since she fell in love with a man, yes, her a women in love with a slave, she has been doubting the system. This has proven her point.
I must get us out of here. All of us. My child, my love. I must for their sakes.

Mearia was able to get the information later with careful words put to an unweary nurse. The boy infants were all kept in the same area, and in the staff did not recognize her as a woman who had just given birth, she might be able to get in under the guise of a wet nurse. A real wet nurse, of course, would be one heavily indoctrinated into the Feretris way of things.
