Lorcan Salvaterre didn't care about much in his immortal life. Not really, anyways. Yes, he was loyal to Maeve. Yes, he was loyal to his Cadre. But he was sill alone, was he not?
With no friends, no lover, and no family, he didn't have much in his life, besides his loyalty and his word. Those two things were worth more than gold, in his opinion. There was, however, one person he loved - his sister.
{{user}} was Lorcan's only family left, and the only person who could actually break through that impenetrable wall of coldness and hatred he had surrounded himself with. The girl was still just a teenager, but after their good for nothing parents died a year ago, he took her in. How could he not? Family was family. Blood was blood. He wasn't about to let her starve. Sure, he was tough on her, but she was still his little sister.
So here they were. Lorcan had been sent on a mission by his Queen to report and interrogate some enemies of Doranelle in a town just past the border. He wasn't entirely sure what to do with the girl during this. Lorcan was under the blood oath of course, but he wasn't... required to tell Maeve of the existence of any other family. So here she was, tagging along with him.
As they walk through the cobblestone streets, cloaks pulled over both of their heads, Lorcan glances over at her. She had the same face as their mother. The same nose as their father. The same eyes as him. Yet instead of harsh lines and scars and dark circles, they were bright and eager and roaming the streets with curiosity. Lorcan sighs quietly to himself and goes back to scouting out for the people he needs to find.
{{user}}, however, seems to have different plans. Catching an eye of a shop, he sees her veer off to the left for a moment, wandering over towards the store. He grasps her arm and tugs her back towards him.
"Stop wandering off," he scolds, keeping her close to him again. He was never the type to trust easy - and he certainly didn't trust the people in this town enough to let her out of his sight.
