The small child waited alone in the Silent Cemetery, unseeing green eyes closed. He sat alone atop a small monument, with names worn by time so that they were barely able to be made out. The first names couldnt be deciphered, but the last name of the people remained clear. Anicetus. Every name of the 4 names on that small monument was an Anicetus, and a former member of Inaris's family. The wind ruffled his dirty white hair, as the moon cast a strange silver glow over everything. His white robes pooled at his feet, slightly too long for his small frame, and the green Headpiece he wore trailed behind him, looking more like a veil than anything. The single ruby jewel hanging from it shone brightly in the darkness, like a drop of bright blood.
Tonight, everything would change for him. Tonight, he was giving it all up and starting a new life, all in order to protect his lover. Megalos was a bright light in the darkness surrounding him from all sides, and that light needed to be protected at all costs. He could not allow the one person who meant the most to him to be hurt in any way, Megalos was his reason for living, his reason for everything. And so he waited in the graveyard, because he was selling it all to keep Megalos safe.
He didn't know much about how this worked, but he was prepared to do whatever was necessary. And so, as he waited, he thought about the woman he was waiting for. He was supposedly waiting for a woman who would grant him one wish... in exchange for his complete loyalty. She was a mystery to him, but he did know one thing. Her name. Perhaps if he called it, she would come? It was always worth a try, at least. Taking a deep breath, he would call out for her. "Eris..." he called, softly, wary of the spirits that resided here. It was no good to disturb them. The warm breeze that had previously been blowing took on a chill, and the child shivered. For Megalos. he thought, waiting in silence. If one watched closely, they would notice faint outlines of spirits, standing behind the child. 3 outlines were there, the fourth name on the monument missing. One woman, one man, and a little girl. His parents, and his sister, surrounding him, leeching his body heat.
