Two nights ago, on the verge of sleep and thinking of the deaths in my family, and idea for some sort of story (I suppose) came to me.

When a child dies before their time, the rest of the family's children would also be killed, because if one child was weak, then the rest shared their weakness.

Children were given a choice, however- they could request to be spared, which very few ever chose.

Because it turned out, being spared led to a fate worse than a quick death - former friends would no longer acknowledge the survivor; neither would the child's parents as they tried again to start a family without weakness.

Eventually, the survivor would beg for death. But it was never given.


Kind of dark, even for me. But now, what do I do with this?
