The crow who just wants her freedom

1.) The forest of Antiva

I had successfully hidden my pregnancy from the crows by taking a contract that would be a difficult and time-consuming. The days left of my pregnancy came to an end.I decided the best option would return to my former Clan and give the child to them. For I would never wish the child growing up like I did. My son or daughter would not become a crow as long as I breathe. I come  across forest marionettes that would be mistaken as svlyans to humans but I knew better. It could be said that Antiva Dalish to clans are more violent than those found elsewhere. But I was from here and I was not afraid. Truth is told the only reason my mother stayed behind was because her friend, Zelene, has fallen in love with a wood cutter name Varis. They lived happily for a while until Varis was killed, and Zelene was forced into prostitution. She died a 9 months later while giving childbirth, the babe did not survive. Grief held my mother in place. But what of me? Oh. right, the crows held me in place. I thought bitterly as I made my way through the forest. I was almost at the Dalish Encampment when I heard a loud pop and a gush of water rushed down my leg. The sharp pain was nothing like the pain I felt when the crows recruited me. Another sharp and intense pain brought me to my knees. With watering eyes I collapsed into the ground. My body betraying me as my pelvis pushed as the contractions started. I don't know how long I was on the ground pushing with all my might, before I felt a hot and searing pain as I reached between my legs I felt a head. It was entirely out, with one big push the rest of the babe came rushing out. I pulled the babe out of the small sack and wrapped her in my cloak. Not bothering to check if it were a girl or a boy. I was in so much pain but I had to get the baby to safety and away from me. The baby cried as I continued on. The blood poured down my leg but the camp was insight. When I saw the hunters rushing to me, a familiar face meet my vision. Devessa! Her voice called out to me as I collapsed at her feet. I push the Bundle of a crying baby into her arms and collapse. The world halted to a stop as my head hit the ground.
I awoke soon after. I found my mother cooing at the baby. I sat up as her eyes found mine she smiled. I did not think you would come home. She began as I stood up. I did not come home, Lanalin. I said as I stood at the doorway. Please take care of the child. I whispered as I turn my back on them. What happened to you Devessa, after I left you at the healers tent?She asked as I heard the  chair squeak as she stood up. I got better, and was sold to the crows. I tell her as I step a foot outside. I came back for you, I didn't leave you there. She whispers. I let a smile appear on my lips as I turned to face her. Your daughter will be safe with us. She comments as I walk away. It took my a few hours to leave the forest but eventually I found myself along a stream I took the time to wash up and get rid of my bloodied clothes. The city was in sight as I started walking again. Upon entering the city the smell of fish and Leather hit me as I made my way to the Crow headquarters. As I opened the door a man came barreling into me. He barely look up at me as I passed him. I saw him often. He was favorable towards the other crows. He was always so happy and full of laughter. But the man who had just ran into me. He look drained, like he had died on the inside. I avoided him and the two others that hung around him especially after the training that we went through. A initiation of the crows I believe, A but something told me to go after him but I didn't listen to that voice. Instead I made my way to my Master, with my contract complete. Vessie, you return home. A voice called out. I turn to see the house of Arainai in front of me. It took longer than expected to infiltrate the Whorehouse, but at last the House of Arainai has another arena to gain more recruits as well as profit. I tell him firmly as I pull out the deed. Good work. He simply says as I hand him the deed. I bow my head and wait for him to dismiss me. You are dismissed. He tells me waving me out of his office. I wait for the next bid of contracts apparently Ferelden has something major going on. I took the contract on infiltrating a small town named Redcliffe. I was to only observe and report to a Arl Howe. I would be leaving in two weeks.
