On one of the continents was a small island in the wilderness with an active volcano. It was located the city of Count Lucrea.
On the western edge of the city, where the poor lived, was a small, two-story wooden house.
This is the home of the Otto family. Right now in this house, a man of about 28-30 years old, hugged his wife tightly and cried with happiness ...
"Dear Eliza, is that what you said is true?"
The woman gently kissed the man on the cheek and cried, too, answered: - Yeah ...
Roland and Eliza Otto have lived together for more than ten years.
They lived a happy and measured life, until one day it became clear that Eliza was ill and could never give birth to a child. Over the years, Roland did not give up and in every way wanted to help Eliza somehow, to find a chance to cure her ... And it finally happened.
Roland and his wife Eliza, secretly from all committed a terrible taboos. They despaired that they would never have a child and then they decided to pray to the devils.
Half a year has passed since their prayer, and now, finally, his wife tells him what he wanted to hear for a very long time.
"Not really, did it really work dear?" I'm so happy, really true!
Time passed ...
Eliza's belly was getting bigger. Neighbors, unbelieving that this could be, referred to the blessing of the Saints themselves and envied Eliza. After all, the great Saint himself blessed their family and the unborn child.
Nine full months flew by unnoticed. The baby should have been born, but something was wrong. Eliza's condition was wonderful. Inside, she felt another life of a living and healthy baby warm in her ..
But why did nothing happen? Time passed, but the child was still inside the mother ...
Having learned about this the inhabitants, various rumors began to circulate in the city ... Someone said that there was a dead man, someone thought that since the child was blessed by the Holy and endowed with special power, for him the term of birth is different .. But even in such cases, the child spent a maximum of 10-12 months in the womb and then unusual people were born with holy power ...
There were also rumors that these were tricks of the devils and people who believed in it, persuaded Eliza not to give birth to this "unclean" child ...
And finally, a considerable 13 months have passed ... The time has come.
Roland spent all his savings on the best doctor for Eliza.
But it was not so simple ... The baby was born exactly 13 heavy hours after the birth.
The boy was born with unusual eye colors, they were different, so attractive and beautiful ... Purple and Red, those were the colors of his eyes ...
"What devilishly beautiful eyes." "said the doctor hired by Roland with a smile."
He was an old man at the age of about 80, who is famous for his holy skills and knowledge in the field of medicine.
Roland went into the bedroom to look at his born child. The boy did not cry at all, he looked with interest at the people looking at him.
- This is ... is this my son?
Exhausted Eliza smiled through her strength to her husband and handed him the child.
After which Eliza fell asleep in a deep sleep.
- Dr. Guang Ji, tell me why my child has such strange eyes and pale skin color?
The old man did not answer. He just left.
No one else saw him in the city, as if such a person had never existed.

Resigned to the birth of such an unusual child, Roland and Eliza loved him with all their heart, because they had wanted this for so long. At heart, they perfectly understood why their child was so "unusual".
- Eliza, it's impossible for someone from the city to see our child, do you agree with me?
- Yes Dear. There is no escaping disaster if people see him. ~ Wife looked worriedly at the child said the wife.
"What do we call him?" ~ Roland asked his question.
- Mmm ... let me think ...
- How do you like Alex?
- Not! ~ Eliza categorically refused to wave her hands and disagree.
- Marcus? ~ Suddenly a name came to Roland's mind.
- Beautiful name. ~ The woman spoke lovingly.
