Challenge #04983-M234: Humble Little Sanctuary

She is only able to bear Hellkin despite being human. She doesn't care. She loves all of her children deeply and makes sure they know that, despite the prejudice far too many have toward them, they are innocent souls. And she, in turn, is very much loved by her children, both born and adopted. -- BKF

The nursery rhyme starts, There was an old woman who lived in a shoe... and it's nearly accurate. The 'shoe' was allegedly an ossified footbag that local lore said was cast off from a Giant. In reality, it was shaped stone from the very first Xenophobia Wars, when it was just Elves versus Dragons. It was large enough to hold a family then, and remained so for eons.

The fact that it was vaguely foot-shaped was mere coincidence.

Jeneve Kaerwon had had three husbands walk out on her because she birthed Hellkin after Hellkin. Even though she told them she was a Human child of Hellkin parents. Even though she warned them that it was likely. They still left her after the second Hellkin birth.
