Her mother looked at her, sighing. How to answer that question. It was  a hard one really. When you were born, she was overjoyed to have  a child. Then, she noticed the skin of a human. Everything about you was human. At first she blamed herself for coming  short of what  the forest wanted. But  the forest gave and  gave to everyone  else  that did as  much as her.<br/>"You are human, humans do bad  things a lot. They steal, they do terrible things. You would not do those things, but all they see is you are different and look like them. I thought  that  you were like this because of some sin I did. There is something about your mother that you do not know. I am not like the other harpies here."<br/>She figured you would want to know what was different  about her.<br/>"I can tell you the  tale of me, if you wish to know my dear."
