"Father, Come with me", "Her womb isn't opening up nearly enough, The baby is going to die if we don't take... Action.. We have to cut her open and save your unborn child." The medicus would lament the night so cold it felt as if his his words would freeze.

When I became a medicus I was more ambitious than any warrior, I thought I'd never lose a soul to the dark shadow of death, I thought I would always rejoice with them their saviour I wanted to be the champion of the weak the warrior of the ill and the rex of the living, You aren't my first father to suffer this unbearable pain and this grieves me no less than the first but she will be dead by daybreak will that death be for nothing?" The doctor would explain ever burdened by the tragedy he was increasingly helpless to prevent.
Her husband would collapse himself against a wall "You're asking me to reach into my flesh and tear my heart out."
Before the Medicus could respond her shrieking had resumed rushing back to her aid they had discovered the bleeding had become more consistent so much so her very flesh was translucent exhausted and defeated she would collect all of her energy just to let out a faint sentence "I'm not making it out of this bed am I?"
