Prologue

In a village surrounded by a shallow forest it was late midnight but the moon still shone as bright as it could. The wind swishing through the forest would rustle the leaves at regular intervals and the dogs would bark at the slightest disturbance.

Sometimes some tired folks would curse these creatures for not knowing the meaning of quiet but these were the usual happenings in this village so people living here were used to it.

Apart from that it was usually really quite outside. As it was chilly outside no folks wandered outside their house during this time unless they had to.

All the villagers seemed to share common economies in this village apparent by the houses that looked almost the same for everyone, wooden houses with enough space for a small family to live. Only a stone building stood apart in this village as it was a little bigger but also older.

Outside this building's gate where everything seemed normal suddenly a circle of blue light appeared which was far from normal. With in a second the circle grew to a radius of 1 meter before it disappeared. A women wearing a black cloak and a hood stepped through this blue circle she had a mysterious air about her. She bent down and carefully put the ragtag bunch of clothes she held in her hands in front of the building door.

The dogs which had been quiet for a while now barked loudly at this new presence but the women didn't seem to mind it much. She caressed the clothes affectionately one last time before stood up and turned to leave.

"Ah! " As if she suddenly remembered an important thing she hurriedly turned back ran to the door and thumped on the door loudly as loud as she could before disappearing as mysteriously as she had appeared.

"Ah geez you were about to break the door. " A young girl with silver hair in her twenties opened the door as she complained while rubbing her sleepy eyes at the same time.

"Huh!" She looked at the empty doorway with a puzzled look. It was empty with no sign of anyone nearby.

Before she could close the door in frustration her eyes met what looked like a bunch of rag on the ground she bent down as she removed the upper lose flap of clothes.

'What? Who left them?' She looked with wide eyes at the babies sleeping peacefully inside the clothes. She looked around hoping to see who could be so cold hearted as to leave babies outside in this chilly weather while she bit her lower lip as she hurriedly picked up the babies and ran inside with the door closed behind her.
