Narinder's birth
CW: childbirth, stillbirth, gore, dead bodies, pregnancy
I took inspiration from Gatsu's birth in Berserk manga, I believe that Narinder could be born from a dead cat's body in a similar setting.
Thank you @rainysnow for the inspiration!

Shamura and Kallamar were thirteen and seven years old, they were on a mission with Haro and Kudaii to learn the art of war in the field.
Kallamar had to practice in the field with weapons, under the strict teachings of Kudaii. Furthermore, he would have been a simple observer of how certain environments favor the profiling of diseases.
During their journey, they came across a macabre scene: a group of heretic corpses hanging from a willow tree. Some were practically reduced to skeletons, others devoured by worms and in an advanced state of decomposition.
Kallamar tried to hold back his vomiting and hid behind Haro, who muttered “How horrible, poor souls…”.
Kudaii, though disgusted, maintained a cynical expression and cast a disapproving look at Kallamar. Shamura was next to Haro, they seemed very intrigued: they are now getting used to the horrors of war, but at the same time they’re shocked by such brutality.
Shamura particularly noticed the hanging corpse of a female black cat, in rigor mortis and brutally wounded and her neck broken tied by the cord.
They particularly noticed the size of her belly, which looked like that of cat who has just given birth, in death. Or maybe, the baby felt from her womb who started to rot.
Shamura lowers their sight: under her feet was her newborn kitten with three eyes, cradled by a mixture of blood, guts and amniotic fluid, still connected to her via the umbilical cord, on which the flies were already landing.
As soon as they notice this apparently dead kitten, Shamura wides their eyes and they run to him, beside Kudai tried to hold them still.
“Shamura! We're leaving!” Haro shouts stritct.
“Sibling, please! You can get ill!” says Kallamar concerned, with a low voice.
Shamura picks the looking dead baby kitten. They observe him, and they look sad because when children are involved in macabre scenarios, their heart breaks.
"Shamura, this baby is already dead! Leave him here!" orders Kudaii.
But when this kitten is on Shamura's arms, starts slowly breathing opening his little mouth, and suddenly cries loudly, shocking everyone.
In Shamura's arms, the kitten let out his first cry, still dirty of a mixture of blood and amniotic fluid.
The young spider breathed a sigh of relief and tears pricked their eyes.
“He’s alive...”
They feel their heart invaded by a deep affection towards this fragile creature born in such a terrible context.
Haro takes a dagegr from Kudaii’s hand.
He approaches towards Shamura, he’s witness by both concerned Kudaii and Kallamar. He’s amazed by this miracle, he dare say.
Shamura looks at him with begging eyes: “Haro! Kudaii! I beg for the Great Ones! Can we keep him? We can’t leave him here! I’ll look at him, I promise! But please, it’s not right to leave him rotting here!”
Kallamar says: “Shamura is right! Can we keep him? I always desired another sibling!”
Haro remains silents for a moment, and he announces those words: "This child has overcome Death itself... he's born from Death, from a dead and rotting womb. Death rules every creature... and only Death can be born from Death."
Haro cuts with the dagger the umbilical cord. Takes the crying newborn kitten from Shamura’s arms, and he raises him towards the light of blood coloured skies.
"You shall be named Narinder, ruler of all mankind, as Death is the ruler of this world".
