Ludovica Grimaldi

The Gargoyle's Sin

'As the creature was bowed forward, only being held up by the strength of the ropes, the ministers quickly opened up the book. The light of the torches caught the name on the cover, 'Accalia'. No one knew what the name meant, but all that matter to them was what the inside of the book could do to the creature of the night. The ministers were filled with excitement and adrenaline, ready to make an example of him and once and for all put themselves on a level that they never should have strived for. In a booming voice, the minister holding the book began to speak. "As punishment for your crimes against God and His people, you will be sentenced to an eternity of anguish. Each morning, as the sun begins to rise, you will turn to stone, a slow painful process that will remind you of what you are and what you have done. Each night, as the sun sets, you will return to your natural form, to be hunted by man and God. You will be bound to the square slab in the center of the cemetery, to watch over the dead, but remember. If you do not return each morning before sunrise, you will turn to dust." ************************************************************************ Alexis Viotto is an only child who is sweet, innocent and flying to Albany, New York to help her aunt after a car accident. She had never been this far from home before, much less without her parents. Her mom intrigued her with a story about a gargoyle that guards the old cemetery. Her arrival seems to have caused a stir and a string of strange events begin to take place. She finds herself tangled in a mystery and now relies on the help of the gargoyle guarding the cemetery to protect her. With her life in danger and her fate being intertwined with Grimald, will she be able to handle the truth? Will she be able to handle who she really is? Is she the key to freeing the gargoyle from his curse, or is another source of his suffering?

The Moonlight Lullaby

Dear Tear, How are you, my love? Winter has already ended and spring has just began. Snow started to melt and new green plants has sprout from the ground. Istark's wild flowers were beautiful as always. They reminded me of you. Beautiful, strong, independent, tough yet at the same time delicate. I pick some and send them to you along with this letter. I hope you'll love them. How was your day? Have you been eating well? Please, don't skip your meals, okay? Is the young Duke from Verkin Dukedom still bothering you? I'm worried, my love. I'm not there to protect you if he force you again. Don't leave Rita's side, understand? My Love, I've been missing you more and more as days passes by. I want to see you so badly. I've only been thinking nothing but you, the whole time I'm here in Grimaldi, fighting against a bunch of monsters and beast day in and day out. I wanna be near you, again and watch you as you enjoy your favorite tea. I want to accompany you while you take your afternoon walk in the garden. However, we're miles apart and I can't do anything aside from missing you. But, winter's over now. The monsters and beasts going rampant have greatly reduced their numbers. If this continues, I might be able to come back in the Capital, a month from now. Will you come, see me after I come back? Nevertheless, I will still be waiting for you in our usual meeting place. I love you, my dearest, Princess Ultear Merlione Betania. - Kurtis Theseus Lazarus
