On a particular planet, when one would look up at the sky, they would discover the fact that they were three moons, two of the moons shined brightly allowing a light glow on the surface. While one of the moons had an important role. It created a permanent eclipse blocking out the sun.
While the other two were naturally made, this one was not. Set up to perfectly move along and shift with the planet’s slow rotation to make it so it would always remain in the dark but still would provide enough heat for survival.
This was the planet that the vampires had chosen to call home. It wasn’t a very large planet, and most of the place was unpopulated, but in one section there were signs of civilization as life could be seen. Buildings created from a black hard substance crafted in a jagged style, but signs of modern technology could also be seen in use. As lights lit up the streets with a lukewarm glow, not too bright.
Strangely, carriages would be used as a form of transportation, but thier were no horses or animals to man them, as they were powered by a different source of energy.
If one could look closer, they could see that everything was being powered by blue crystals.
It was a mixture of old and new.
The city was surrounded by what looked like a forest that went all around the outside of the buildings, and towards the back of it, a single large mountain. In front of the mountain was a castle that was a quarter of the size of the mountain itself, it was grand in size and had a sleek design. Unlike the other buildings, this one was also made of the black materiel but had been carefully carved out. Creating a perfect castle.
Going around the large central castle, either side were fourteen smaller castles. They equally looked impressive each bearing their own crest on a giant cloth at the front. However, two of these castles looked a little run down compared to the rest and displayed no such crest. There was also no lights or fires lit. Showing no sign of inhabitants in the buildings.
One of the castle’s family crests displayed a ring with six strings attached to it, pulling it from above. This was the Sanguinis families castle. Inside on the bottom floor in their private training hall, a portal had suddenly appeared floating in the centre of the room.
Two guards dressed in black clothing with a gold trim going around it stood outside. They too on thier shoulders bore the crest. They turned their heads looking into the room when noises could be heard from behind.
"A return portal has been activated," One of them said.
"Go inform the lord of the knight’s return." With that, one of them took off down the hallway.
First to go arrive through the portal was Peter, although he didn’t look like his usual self as he was disguised as Quinn. Both of his hands remained tied behind his back, but he was compliant. The one who followed after him was Fex and eventually Silver.
The remaining guard immediately entered the room and got down on one knee in front of Silver. "We welcome your return, young master and Knight Silver."
"No need to be polite to him." Silver said. "Remember, he is to be punished."
"Sorry, a habit Miss."
To remind everyone that Fex was indeed a criminal, she used her own red string, mixed with her blood abilities and wrapped up Fex’s arms behind him as well.
"Go inform the lord that we will be meeting him in the main room." Silver commanded.
"As you wish," The man said as he lifted himself up and bowed down to Silver before rushing off again.
"Gosh do they always have to be that uptight and formal, am I right sis?" Fex said in an upbeat tone.
"Shut it you." Silver replied. "Do you know how much trouble you could have been in? The other families and king are unaware of this situation. We managed to keep it under wraps."
"I knew you would!" Fex interrupted.
Silver immediately glared at him back and decided to use even more string wrapping it around his mouth, so he could no longer interrupt her.
"Much better." She said. "Because of this, the punishment you will receive will be dealt with within the family. There is no need for the council to make a decision. Furthermore, we can use this illegal creator to pin the blame on one of the other families. Your father will be pleased and will lighten your punishment."
