LunarTotems/Cuckoo

Introduction

"Where's my child ? Have you seen my child ? She's a little blond girl, eight years old and tall like that ?"

The mother walks through the crowded market, searching for her daughter. Some people shake their head, unable to help her, some ignore her busy as they are shopping or selling, but someone tells her : "Oh, she was there a minute ago, she went to play with another young boy in the street over there."

So the woman runs into the darker street to find in mixed relief and anger, the adorable little girl. "There you are ! I was so worried ! Don't you do this to me, ever !", the mother says, hugging the child and rubbing absent mindly some red spot that dirts her face. "Who did you go play with ?"

The little child smiles. "Oh, the boy ? He doesn't matter anymore. I'm so happy i found you again Mama. Nothing will separate us now."

The cuckoo is well known for laying his egg into another bird's nest. When the little cuckoo is born, he pushes the true bird's children out of the nest, and monopolizes the mother's affection and food. A Lunar based upon the cuckoo makes a very horrifying child monster. Maybe some day her parrents were killed during some attack or plague, but she went on living, exalting through persistance and tenacity to survive, not understing what happened to her family and keeping searching for her mother. Seeing once another mother taking care of small child, she decided it was HER mother and killed and took the place of the child, happy to be reunited at last with mama... that is until the family discovers their daughter or son doesn't grow up anymore, or the corpse of the true child is discovered...
