The Heron's Fate

Awen's world has always revolved around her beautiful twins and bringing life to the plants and animals around her father's home. As a goddess, her healing songs turn striplings into mammoth mother trees and causes her animal friends to multiply profusely. When Awen's twins' turn against each other and destroy everything that Awen has spent years creating, her life turns bleak with despair. My father offers her a chance to create a new world, sending her to Earth after he had wiped out the people and animals of the world. 

Ash has spent the last two months flying over the flooded Earth with only broken tree branches and the tips of mountain tops available to rest upon. His bird's-eye view of the death of the humans and mammals of Earth shattered his heart, building within him an anger and hatred toward the god that ended them all. When a new seemingly helpless god arrives, his cold heart flickers to life. He doesn't see the differences between them, only her beauty and kindness. 

Can these two unlikely souls overcome the fact that the godling is pregnant with twins from a dead lover? Or will Ash's resentment and anger force them apart?

In this retelling of Sky Woman and Turtle Island, The Goddesses' Heron, we find a story of loss and destruction set during the time of an ancient Earth. It will follow the traditional story of Sky Woman falling from the stars to restore the animals and people to the Earth with the added twist of her finding love and a partner in Ash. Their instant connection and powerful love will need to sustain them through their many trials.
