Tell me it's real

A girl. She heard Yurei's words and felt a wave of relief wash over her, accompanied by another sharp surge of pain. A healthy girl - she couldn't ask for anything less. If she seemed immediately well, she must be. Kirsi couldn't dwell on it for long before the pain intensified again, so strong this time she was sure she might just black out; but she persevered for the sake of her children and bringing them into the world. The next one was large, she could tell that much by how rapidly her pain amped up. Everything was a painful blur from that moment on - she felt like she was slipping in and out of consciousness. There was a boy next, then another, and two more girls. The pain eventually ceased and she felt herself nearly collapse against Song, too tired to move. She felt her babies wriggling against her, proof that they were alive and well - Song and Yurei could take care of the rest, for she had no strength left in her. Already she felt sleep threatening to take hold of her and she was incapable of fighting it.
