EVELYN
It was night-time, a time for cold, for everyone to gather in their houses safe and warm. And Longnight was approaching, so the place was looking rougher than usual - windows and doors boarded up, people afraid to make eye contact with each other lest they pre-emptively invite a monster into their home.
Evelyn smiled. She and her twin were monsters, of a sort. Not so different to those that roamed the streets in the pitch darkness of the Longnight.
The cold did not bother, and her keen eyes saw more details than they previously would've.
A parcel, a package, left on a table, suspiciously alone. The cherub approached it with caution, eyes narrowing as she observed it.
Flicking at the note with delicate hands, she read it, and became more interested - a single brow raising as she felt through the cloth at what might lie within.
A blade, handsome and refined, styled and sharp. Elegant but practical.
She liked it very much, and smiled a grin that hinted at devious inclinations as she wrapped it back up in its cloth, and placed it in her bag. She would get a holster of sorts made for it, so that she might wear it attached to her belt, but for now, she would collect it - it counted as an upgrade of sorts, in her mind. Until she was able to wield claws from her own hands, knives and blades would do.
Then she continued on into the night, to explore and learn and travel, and find her sister once more, so that they might venture to the Temple together.

FIN <3
innocence
is but an illusion
