He grabbed the frame of the first thing at hand and, arching his neck back, groaned as he felt his muscles stretch mercilessly once again. The birth was horrible. He knew that now.

Then he glanced hesitantly at the catching fire and the abundance of snow outside. Terrible. He was ashamed that the baby had to come into the world like this, not knowing if it would survive for a few hours unless conditions calmed down. He wanted to welcome a healthy baby into the world at any cost.
