"Come, Father, have some tea!"
After completing the plans for the new plane, Medivh returned to North Kurd City before his mother Aurora went into labor.
Father and son sat across from each other at the table. Smiling, Medivh handed a cup of tea to his anxious father, Rhine.
Back when Medivh was a father himself, Rhine had always been the one to pour him tea.
This time, their roles had been reversed, and it was Medivh's turn to pour.
"She's here! She's here! It's a little princess!"
After the sound of a baby crying, the midwife carried the newborn into the outer room to show her to Rhine and Medivh.
The little one was made of flesh and blood. Fine, soft dragon scales covered her slightly flushed skin, a visible sign of her Dragon Kin bloodline.
Medivh could sense that she had an extraordinary constitution from birth. Like him, she was a flesh-and-blood Bone Spirit.
Rhine and Aurora had already picked out a name for the little one: Miracle, meaning "daughter of miracles."
Medivh gave her the surnames Osman, Loran, Hobarton, and Wrynn. By law, she was a legitimate member of the Wrynn Family.
She was eligible to inherit the noble titles attached to those surnames.
When Miracle grew up, she could spend her life in the Wrynn Family, serving Medivh.
Or she could leave the family like Medivh had and establish a new noble house, becoming a subordinate branch of the Wrynn Family.
Having unexpectedly gained a little sister made no difference to Medivh's life.
It was a good thing. His father, Rhine, and mother, Aurora, had always felt guilty that they hadn't been able to watch Medivh grow up.
By the time their family was reunited, Medivh was already grown. He could no longer keep them company
