Drake Varas stood atop the dark walls of the Varas stronghold, staring down at the two men.
His dark overcoat fluttered slightly behind him in the wind.
The sentinels stationed on the imposing walls of the fortress quietly observed him with reverent gazes, their attention shifting between him and the silhouettes of the two men standing motionlessly outside the fortress.
Towering dark spires loomed behind him, standing defiantly in the face of the raging blizzard.
A second later, his niece appeared beside him, her long blonde hair blowing back in the chilling wind.
Nadia Varas was dressed in a similar black long overcoat, with a grey suit within that perfectly accentuated her captivating grey eyes.
Standing beside her uncle, the two Varas made for a breathtaking duo, one as dark as the devil while the other a breathtaking angel.
Without saying a word, the two stepped off the wall, plummeting through the air to the snowy plains below.
