In the midst of winter, it was my time to finally give birth. I ordered my husband to fetch my mother and he even borrowed a horse to get there as fast as he could. I had decieded that I was not going to do this alone. Luckily, I did not have to – my mother made it in time to my aid. And after a night full of pain I do not even remember anymore, I gave birth to another daughter. Olaf and I named her Lucia, the carrier of light.
