"How is he doing?" a female voice cut through the silence of the dark room,
concerned eyes looked up to Arcanus' face, chains rattling, clothes rustling.

"He is doing a very good job. He and his friends stopped the Luna Tower and
ended the Grave Eclipse," the masked man reported the latest events from the
Appollo Lens, bowed deep down in front of the woman, rested his hands on the
ground.

"And how are you feeling? Can you still fight for me? Will you fight for me,
Arcanus...?" the melodious voice carried the question to Arcanus' ears.

A few moments the dark room was completely filled with ears deafening silence
and the man wasn't able to move.

"So you want me to tell him the truth? The whole story? I don't think he'll
believe a single word coming from my lips. It would be more likely he would try
to kill himself than to believe those words. He'll have to see the truth, with
his own eyes," the adept argued and fell on his knees in front of the fragile
body, clad in soft, light silk clothes and cold, hard iron chains.

"You think he'll believe me more than you?", the soft voice asked and the small
body stood up and moved beside the man, went down beside him and put a soft hand
on his cheek.

Arcanus eyes wandered up to hers and stared into the wavering depths of deep
turquoise.

"It sounds so sad he won't believe the words of his own father...", the voice
whispered into the darkness and her thumb stroked lovingly over his cheek,
caressing the soft, white skin.
The eyes of the woman turned sad and tears started to flow down her cheeks,
dropping on her collarbone.

"Please don't cry my princess...We’re gonna tell him everything....Veriti!”
he whispered into her ear, leaned soothing against her cheek and kissed her full
lips lovingly.
The end?
