Mother of nightmares by LadyAmethyst001 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Decided to give a little lore to Mamu.

Wizeman needed a nightmaren who could raise them all to be frightful monsters. Training them to be beasts to collect ideya. Doing it all by himself was taking too much time and resources. So, he created Mamu. Her job was to train and raise nightmarens. But there was something different about her.

If you look into her eyes, you'll see hearts. Mamu has a gifted trait called True Sight. The ability to look into a person's heart. But Wizeman intended to give it to her. He had heard of this special gift and wanted to give it to Mamu, but he gave it to her without completely understanding it. When he heard True Sight look inside people's hearts, he thought that meant seeing their fears, too. But that's not true. Those with True Sight see your heart and can, therefore, see you as a person. Good or bad.

The moment Mamu laid her eyes on him, she knew he was evil from the start. But she had no place in the dream gate, so she stayed with him either way. Eventually, he became frustrated with Mamu because she wasn't doing her job correctly. Instead of showing them how to hunt, she nurtured them as if they were her own children. Showing them kindness and care when Wizeman wants them to be shown discipline and aggressiveness.

Despite the abuse, Mamu stayed with him. But when Reala and Nights were born, she fell in love with them. She loved them like her sons. But Wizeman forbade her from raising them because he believed she would taint them with her disgusting signs of affection. So he trained the two nightmarens himself.

Despite it all, Mamu still loves her children, even if she was only ever able to escape with Nights. She hopes to, one day, have Reala open his eyes and see the light.
