The Eye in the Window
There was a couch in the infirmary where Layren was being treated, with some equipment to help her improvement. It was almost night, so Gremory decided to spend the night by her side, sleeping on that couch since his children were fine being watched constantly.
A tempestuous night it was, with thunders striking the castle one after the other. Every corner and corridor on the castle has large windows, and Yuriel and Isaac's room was no different.
Not an ordinary storm, one of the biggest in the last decades on the same day the children from the Hand were born. The mages that were there, already left back to their duties, leaving lots of templars to guard the children, more than a dozen but only a few inside to give them privacy as requested.
However, the ones inside started to complain of difficulty breathing, as if the air was getting dense.
