Inside a bedroom on the second floor of Lichtenstein Castle.
Princess Alexia was sitting at the edge of her bed, her listless eyes reflecting endless despair, like a little bird caged and waiting for death.
She could hear the faint commotion from the lower floor, signaling the arrival of the Count of the Blood Clan.
Soon, the Count would massacre everyone in the chapel and then come to the second floor to find her.
However.
She cast her eyes towards the window and saw through the exquisite carved window frame, that the dawn was breaking!
Then, moving slowly, Alexia began to stand up and walk towards the window, gently touching the cold glass with her hand.
The glass faintly reflected her gaunt and shocked face, but even from the second floor, she could feel the warm glow spilling from the first floor. It seemed like a powerful light shining through each glass window of the chapel, enough to illuminate the entire courtyard and even the forest!
