Brin floated back up towards consciousness, recalling things in layers, Hawkeye of the Golden Eyes and his tragically murdered wife, whose ghost they were travelling to find and free. Would it be as hard for the Oakenling to say goodbye, even though it was goodbye again, as it had just been for her? And after the quest was done, what would she do with a servant for the next decade? At least she'd broken him of calling her Mistress or Miss Brin; finally he was able to use her name unadorned.

It was only that she'd never expected to see him as a Dark Angel in the middle of Russia, and that stirred up old feelings, Brin told herself. She'd been unprepared, and too raw from flying her aura like a banner. And Brin had done her absolute best to provide a calm and normal early childhood for Marea like the one she'd been privileged to enjoy. Due to her husband's illness, they'd only had the one child, and that had it's own advantages, although Marea did have fewer children to play with.

Back then it had been called consumption, and although Brin's potions would alleviate the symptoms, they could not regenerate the damaged lung tissue he steadily lost. Brin had been conflicted about striking a bargain with the Morrigan, but Stefan had done it while she had nodded off and was lightly sleeping at his bedside. Thus, he had lived a full lifespan with his beloved ones, yet... for Brin it was all too brief. Nevertheless, she'd tried to brave, put her grief behind her, let it fade.

That was the beginning of the otherness for Brin. Her father was a good man, but, like her brothers, he was mortal... and she was not. Brin had cried for days after finding out. Yet, she was still attracted to human friends, and had fallen and love and married Stefan. He had absolutely doted on baby Marea. It was to have more time to spend with his little girl, to get to watch her grow up, together with his wife, that he had pacted with the Morrigan when he caught tuberculosis in his 30s.

Yet nothing overt ever happened, and there were no tinges of fear, not while they lived there. It had truly been an idyllic place to be a very small girl... until a very sick squirrel had fallen into the well and fouled the drinking water. Two women had come to the door in the morning to ask if anything could be done, meaning, could mama do anything. She agreed that she could... and told the rest of us to start packing. Once she'd performed obvious magic, we would no longer be welcome.
