Ouroboros Spine kunikruk ∄

Every time a new Targaryen is born, he said, the gods toss the coin in the air and the world holds its breath to see how it will land.

Same can be said for every child conceived and growing inside their mother's womb. Gods toss the coin and there is no way to predict, how it will land. Odds are same for all. What's more - the fate of the child carried, child born is out of mother's power. Perhaps, because of this choosing motherhood is one of the bravest decisions a woman can make.

It is the human nature to seek logic and causation in events that sometimes are entirely random.

Whether Kausiut was a result of a coin toss or a single negative thought of Kukutux during her pregnancy, it did not matter to her. She did not think herself different from other people. She was self-confident and happy. She had no idea that she had been intended for a higher purpose and that she did not conform to the requirements.

Just maybe the true challenge that gods had instilled upon Kukutux was accepting Quu for, who she was. Not regret, who she had not become. Not question herself on, where she as a mother might have gone wrong. The girl was a seedling - Kukutux could nurture and provide the best of it, but she could not make it grow any faster, nor could she will it to be anything else than it was.

Kau did not consider her mother's inquiry worth answering verbally. She shrugged and yawned.
