Rights taken, laws changed, choices given: take what they give you and live above in comfort or be confined to prisons. The pecking order allows this blessing for chosen ones as long as you perpetuate the prisons of the mind. Appreciating what is given is mandatory. Needing more is a crime. I guess that makes Jasmine, and those like her, criminal. In spite of it all, Jasmine finds life, love, family and happiness. Risk is worth the fulfillment until the day it is not herself she risks. There is no choice but to send her beloved baby above in the care of his father, her lover; a needed choice that ruptures the life she builds and unknowingly follows the path along tales of old. Rufus, a wolf elder long ago pledged to guide her, becomes protector and confidant in the world below. He walks by her side to rescue those they love. We live in hiding helping those we can. Dare we live life in love? Do we hope for family? Do we hope for battle and freedom?
