Chapter 10 - THE VISITOR

He watched her come down from the back of the beast which had accompanied her before. She was putting on a White dress this time that stopped right below her knees. Only then did he notice, she had no shoes on. She walked barefooted on the cold Ice, weren't her feet killing her?, even he himself managed and survived in his boots feeling the intense cold seeping in. He watched her as she came forward, her feet barely leaving behind a footprint, her white long hair resting on her body, her eyes were almost like crystals but with a hint of blue, her lips as red as an apple, Winter was a beautiful creation and it took him no time to realize but, he wasn't going to give himself away so he hid his expression.

Morbius looked to his sides at the two demons that accompanied him. He had studied them for years ever since he was a little boy when he learnt how to pick a spoon by himself. They left when Winter came with Poa. Morbius smirked when she finally stood in front of him. " Happy to see me so soon?"

" well I won't say am disappointed ". Winter said without any expression written on her face. " why have you come? "

" I had no need for their rude escort " He said pointing to the direction the demons went in. " Have I told you Winter? I am a mage and I never get lost ".

" Speak!, I have better time to waste than stand here for this nonsense. Why have you come? " Winter asked showing she had no time for his silly behavior.

Morbius look suddenly became cold sending a chill down her back. His expression was that of an ork at late night. " Mania sent me to you"

Once those words came out she softened her look. " Why? "

" she wants me to train you to peak of your power she fears for what's to come"

Winter laughed wickedly " How can a mortal teach me these things?. You are like a spider in a raven's home ready to be eaten. Surely Mania should reconsider.

Morbius crossed his two hand behind his back gave a devilish smirk. " correction when you said raven an sure you were talking about it's egg". He started walking round Winter, " the spider much wait for the egg to hatch"

This angered Winter. Feeling insulted she broke the ground ice letting two float in the air and with might sent it flying at Morbius. He just put his hands up gesturing for it to stop still with a hand behind his back, and the ice rocks melted into water. Winter was stunned by this, was he like her?.

" H-how did you..."

" I am a mage, I guess you were not paying attention earlier". Morbius walked and stood in front of Winter, all Poa could do was watch closely. " Tomorrow at noon, my place" Morbius raised his hands up with two fingers out, twisted it left and then right, smiled coldly and disappeared.

Winter looked back to Poa and then back to were Morbius formerly stood. If Mania wanted it then she would do it .
