Prologue
Deathcroix Manor
Shouts and cry of pains were heard at the Delacroix Manor. Smell of blood were everywhere and the last breath of death was lingering around. With the rhythm of the cold wind as the fire grows wild.
“Father what is happening”? Little Astrid asked while assessing her surroundings. Gone the gleam in her innocent bluish eyes, the smile on her pinkish heart-shape lips. Only confusion and sorrow.
“Nothing my dear princess. Just close your eyes and everything will be okay. I promise.” And like a spell Astrid fell unconscious.
“My lord we’ve been surrounded” a cold voice said from the dark corner of the room.
“Listen Brandr, My most trusted familiar. I want you to fulfil this last order of mine.” A deep voice command with full authority while staring at the fire that starting to devour the Delacroix manor. His once soft expression were gone replace with a sinister smile that promise a painful death.
“As always my lord.”
“I want you to keep my daughter safe until the last breath of your life…”
“Yes master. I, your always loyal familiar will fulfil your order until the breath of death reach me.”
“Caelum, Titania, Mavis”
“Yes master” the three other that is present in the room answered.
“I want the three of you to guide my daughter as she grows up on this wicked world. Guide her, nurture her strength and be her guardian as the time comes where she can stand on her own.”
“We your loyal servant and loyal to the crest of Deathcroix Manor will always fulfills your order my Lord.” The three of the reply.
“To the highest magic that is created I thee give half of my life to my familiar “Brandr”, for him to stay in this realm until her order is fulfil.” And everything went white.
