Author Note: This story was supposed to happen last year (but then loss happened) but the Mods here were very lovely in letting me back out fairly late in the game (before art claims luckily for all). So now it is here for all of you. And I am sorry for the fact that I may have disappeared on people. Life happened with a 2 by 4. Thank you for reading!

Summary: It started with a summons from some called a traitor sent to care for a young child who was hated by the village at large. It grew into a village revived and a village brought to it’s knees because of the hubris of men in power. And a relationship that helped to shape lives.
