PoV: Cailleach
I used to think I was the luckiest person in the whole world.
:::
I never had any memories of the life I had before she saved me. It was mostly just a blur of constant hunger and constant eating.
I don't know when I was born, but I know exactly when I received a chance to be born a second time.
I was roaming the countryside, eating anything and everything in my path, when I met her.
She beat me completely and utterly. It was my first time knowing defeat, if the records of humans are to be trusted.
And, more importantly, her mana was delicious and powerful. It satiated me in a way that made my hunger disappear. For the first time in my whole life, I was lucid.
She was the hero summoned to help the humans win their endless war against the dragonkind, and she asked me to join her.
She promised to feed me with her mana while I was with her and taught me how to assume a human form.
We traveled together and fought many battles together, side by side.
