The ships physician examined me after Aris saw that I really was not feeling well after our trip to the springs. Perhaps the emotional outburst and the ensuing fight between me and that slave brought on the labor or perhaps it was just bad timing. After the intitial examination, it was determined that I was in fact in labor and Aris unlocked the collar around my throat.
The long ahns of labor were of me watching the door as the hunt for Maximus began so that he could be there for the birth of his child. Again I brought into this world his child alone, yet she is so beautiful that I try not to dwell on the sadness. He and I have lost so much of our lives together. Aris stood by and watched me in the agony and joy of birth laced with such unhappiness. What is to become of my child now that I can no longer protect it within my body. What will I be now that my last hold to freedom is gone. It is so very hard on me to let go of my children, they have been what has kept me going while feeling so useless for so very long. Again I am faced with the endless days of loneliness. I am in such pain.
Max I know is on a trip of importance..
His daughter that looks so much like Maxine, she has been named, Madeline
