Her labor has started in earnest. Her muscles contracted and relaxed in waves to push her babies out. She tried to encourage the process but she is too tired. She is supposed to be breathing hard and in a pattern that works well with the contraction. 

Unfortunately, she can't. Running for her life is finally taking a toll on her. Her lungs want air but her muscles are too tired. Her breath has become shallow because the muscles of her ribs aren't doing their job. All she feels is a pain in her chest instead of the satisfaction of a deep breath.

She began to sob. Tears fell down her face when she realized that she couldn't push. She tried and tried but her muscles were not listening to her. They are too fatigued. Her contraction began to weaken so the pain of labor reduced drastically. Her babies won't be coming out after all. But it isn't good news. She sobbed as life slowly left her. 

"Why?" She wailed in sorrow. 

Her body is still trying to get rid of the matured parasites within her but she is too tired. She has nothing left to give. So her vitality began to drop. She is only a vitality core stage after all. There is a limit to the amount of Vitality that she has in her body. Running around pregnant while bleeding and going into labor when tired and wounded will have repercussions. She knows her fate is sealed so she wept.

She went to the heavens. Her every son carried forth her deep sorrow. Her pain echoed through the tunnel in waves. She hoped for a miracle then. She hoped for salvation. But the heavens didn't listen to her. All her crying is a waste. There is no salvation to be had. Her body weakened until her chest stopped rising completely. 

She muttered with her last breath. "Life isn't fair." 

That's what she managed to say before her death. If there was any doubt about the unfairness of life, those doubts have ceased to exist at this moment. She has just lost her partner and her tribe. She needed to continue his bloodline. But now she will lose her babies and her life. 

Life isn't fair. Only the fittest will survive. Apparently, her partner is not fit enough. He couldn't protect her. And she is not fit enough. She will die with her unborn babies within her. Their weak bloodline will end here to make the world a better place for the strong. The weak will cease to use part of the limited resources so that the strong can grow. That is what the heavens want to see. It doesn't want to save her. 

Her lamentation rang hollow through the dark tunnel. At least her pursuers aren't chasing her anymore. They probably fear the Underdark and are not desperate enough to go in after her. She will be able to die alone in peace. That is a silver lining.

But Legion-6 had other thoughts. He is the first to be birthed because he actively jostled for that position. He has been ready for a long while in the womb. The pregnancy didn't have an elongated duration because his divine ability didn't need much augmentation. 

It is a divine ability that used only one law and it was augmented by the law of Slaughter to make two laws in total. So he only spent a couple of years in the womb, unlike Soverick. The only problem he faced was the contamination of fragments of the law of life in his divine ability. I think you should take a look at

The fragments diluted the budding concept of the divine ability but it was of no issue for him. He has fully comprehended the law of life and even formed a concept based on it. So he used the law fragments of life to enhance his divine ability. It didn't delay him much but his siblings in the womb did. So he is very eager to escape from the womb. Unfortunately for him, the birthing process stopped short.contemporary romance

"What's going on? Is my mother lazy?" He asked no one in particular when he stopped moving.

He was within the birth carnal when the pushing force began to weaken. He stopped moving forward. He became stuck within the birth carnal. He also noticed the dwindling blood flow from his mother through the umbilical cord. He needs vitality from her or his body will die and he will die too.

He became agitated. "This is bad. Something is wrong with the female vessel I am using. I can't die like this. I have big plans." 

He is an unborn child without the support of his mother in a tight space that is supposed to squeeze and eject him but is failing in its purpose. There is no air for him to breathe here and he very much needs air. He will die here if nothing is done about it. 

He is not willing to die so he drew support from the soul force of Legion-1. Legion-1 is the only support he can get right now since he was born even before Soverick Ghastorix. Soul force passed through the soul sphere into his soul where he redirected it into his divine ability. 

His body is currently too weak to withstand the power of such a level. The connection between his powerful soul and weak body is tenuous at best. Reckless use of soul force will lead to damage to the Origin connection to his body. It is not an injury that can be healed by anything he has access to currently. 

He could die if things go out of hand and his connection to his body is severed. He can have irreparable injuries if he is not careful but he doesn't have a choice. It is either this or certain death. He chose to risk it. Anything is better than certain death. So soul force from his soul entered the divine ability in his body and he activated it on his small claws.
