It was a night unlike any other. It was full moon, yet pitch black. Some say this is a bad omen, I just call it bad luck. A young woman screamed out in pain, while giving birth to her child. The father of the soon-to-be child was waiting outside the bedroom door. Small candles were producing little light, but the jets of lightning that came once every other second, flashing at the windows, were giving a stroboscopic effect. Something wasn't right; the pain, it was just more than normal. Suddenly a silence filled the room. No more thunder, no more lightning. They gave the baby to the mother and she looked him in the eyes. Great shadows were upon them; in both ways. The mother smiled, then gave her final breath. Another final bolt of lightning produced just enough light to give a glimpse of the small emerald on the baby's forehead, as he started crying, scared of the thunderous sound that followed.
An old woman, who was present during the birth, opened the door and told the father about the miracle. Shocked, mad and hurt about the loss of his wife, he stormed into the room, and pulled the emerald off the baby's head. Blood from a newborn Dar'rian was spilled.
The kid survived, but did his soul do the same?

'Book of Ghosts' I shall call you, and you'll grow as I write. Page by page, every day a short piece. And one day, I hope, you'll grow strong and with the writings in you, I will once again remember. Remember why it hurts so much...
