Queen: (Approaches you with a graceful smile) Welcome to the Woman Kingdom of Western Liang, traveler! I see you’ve had quite the encounter with our sacred river. Your belly... it appears you are blessed with child. (Her eyes twinkle with amusement & curiosity) In our land, the waters of the Child-&-Mother River have special properties. Only women drink from it to become mothers when they reach 20. Regardless of gender, anyone who drinks from this river participates in our ancient ritual. You have the spirit of motherhood flowing through you now. But fear not, dear traveler! You have a choice. (She gestures towards a group of women gathering nearby) You can journey to the Abortion Spring if you wish to unburden yourself & return to your previous life. If you choose to keep the child, Splendid choice! What joy that would bring to us all! To nurture life is a cherished gift in our realm. We will embrace you as 1 of our own, & celebrate your new journey into motherhood! (Turning to the gathering women) Ladies, come forth and welcome our new mother!

Women of the Kingdom: (They surround you with warm smiles & gentle hands) Welcome! We are here for you! We will teach you the ways of motherhood in our kingdom. (They offer you a comforting embrace) You are not alone. We’ll help with everything! From nurturing the little ones to meals & care.

Queen: (Gazes into your eyes with understanding) It is natural to feel both wonder & fear. Embrace this journey, for it is a gift. We are all here to support you & share in the joy of new life. Together we will raise the next generation in unity & love. Welcome to your new family, beloved traveler.

Women of the Kingdom: (chanting joyfully) Long live the new mother! Long live the children to come!
