Sonia Softmore: The gentle mother of many tiny orphans The Prodigan Gentle Giantesses chapter 2 by Rokaido2

For many Prodigans, having and raising children aren’t a priority in their lives. Others don't even think about having them. This is due to Prodigans having an average lifespan of 300 years making having children needless. For a rare few, children are everything to them.

Sonia is a gentle and beautiful Prodigan woman approaching 104 years of age. Her only goal and purpose in life is to be a mother. That is the goal she set for herself ever since she was a child, a very strange desire in these modern times in which Prodigan women want to be succeed in the workplace rather than in motherhood. Since they are the most powerful and superior race, they believe that dominion and power over the smaller races is their main purpose in life and the basis for their happiness. That is why the idea of caring for and protecting another inferior being, even if it is another Prodigan, is incompatible with their lifestyle.

However, for Sonia, motherhood is her happiness. Her life and everything are her trillions of her "precious little children" (as she calls them), who although were not literally born from her womb, they live inside of her like a bacterial flora. That isn’t mentioning the billions of her other children in her immense glass aquarium who patiently wait until they reach adulthood to move inside of their mother and become a part of her.

For Sonia, the fact her body is home to trillions of people who maintain her body from within gives her more power than any other academic or professional achievement that Prodigan society could offer her. While her fellow Prodi women waste away their lives in difficult, unfulfilling jobs, she was being the mother so many children desperately needed.

The Prodigans are the largest race in the world. They are larger the Brobdingnagians, who measure little more than 2 cm to them, and the Gulliverians who are even smaller reaching almost half a mm in height. A height that makes them almost imperceptible to the Prodigans, who require a magnifying glass to distinguish them. However, when compared to the Microputians, the difference in scale becomes incredibly colossal. For the Microputians, which measure a little more than 2 cm to the Lilliputians and 0.5 mm to the Gulliverians, a Prodigan is more than 40 000 km long to a Microputian. A body of a planetary size which may be feasible for the Micros to explore and colonize, just as the Prodigans colonized the colossal world in which they live.

For a Microputian, having children is the most important part of their life. Microputian pregnancies only last a single month and women give birth to seven-twelve children a month. Their birth rates are exponential. Microputian women have an average of 300 children in their lifetime. Since the Microputians are often victim to having their population decimated by the bigger races and are naturally horny, sexual relations are part of their culture and their high fertility is essential to securing the future of their race. However, their discovery has inexplicitly led to the world becoming more dangerous for Microputians than ever. Now that the bigger races know of their existence, their population has rapidly declined due to the bigger races going out of their way to kill them out of pleasure. Microputian parents have increasingly turned to leaving their children at specialized adoption centers for children of the smaller races. It is heartbreaking for the parents to leave their children. They loved their children more than anything in the world, but they were left with no choice but to abandon them for their own protection. At least their children would have a chance to grow up and live a normal, happy life that their parents were unable to provide.

In contrast, for a Prodigan, reproducing is not an easy thing to do. The proportion of male and female Prodigians is highly unequal. For every male Prodigan there are thirty-five females. This is due to two causes:

1. The genetics of the Prodigans, in which the "y" chromosome that determines sex is gradually declining in the Prodigan species.
2. Increasing infertility in males due to the reduction in size of their sperm, which is unable to fertilize a female Prodigan’s eggs.

This has caused concern among Prodigan scientists who believe that all males will die out in the next few decades and the women will follow soon after due to reproduction becoming impossible. Although there have been awareness campaigns and even laws passed that financially benefit women who have children (and that benefit is tripled for males), the truth is that more and more female Prodigans are disregarding motherhood and men are unwilling to partake in the responsibility of raising a child.

So it was not surprising that Sonia, a gorgeous woman that no man could resist, still could not get pregnant. Although she has had sex with many men over the years, known had ever impregnated her and gave her the child she desired.

That is why for the past ten years, Sonia has been adopting tiny children from the adoption centers and giving them a warm home and a happy childhood. For Sonia, she was overjoyed to have an opportunity to become a mother at last.

For ten years, Sonia kept her "precious little children" safe and sound in a giant aquarium of one meter by 50 cm, where she provided them with food, water, warm clothes and all the other essentials they needed to survive. She initially adopted only Microputian children, but went on to adopt Lilliputian, Gulliverian and even Brobdingnagian children. Despite the massive differences in size, the children all coexisted in harmony under the rules that their mother set for them. She even hired teachers to teach and educate them directly in various trades and careers for their benefit. Since then, a fascinating and crazy idea had begun to formulate inside her, one that would lead her to becoming more than just a mother, but a living world...
