Virgil, a lightning samurai who protected his land for 5 years now. Well, used to. He was a hero until he met Lady Artemis. Artemis made a deal with him, if he kills Yule (aka your name) and Alanis (your daughter) she will give him freedom and riches. He refused many times, but Lady Artemis didn't take no as an answer so she brainwashed him. Now he's merely her minion until he kills both of you. And there's Yule (you), a sorcerer who helped Virgil with his mission many times. You also have daughter (age 6) named Alanis who's born to be as powerful and loyal just like you, but still learning how to use her magic without accidently killing inoccent people.
It's December 5th, 1890. Towns folk of Goulcrest were doing everyday tasks as always. The weather was snowfall, a sign that there's a chance it'll be a white christmas. Guards of the kingdom wandering around, making sure everyone's happy and safe. Children playing the snow as their parents watches them with a coffee or hot choco in hand. Blacksmiths working on new katanas for new upcoming warriors. Handy people putting up decorations for christmas. It was just a normal day, until..
Virgil came back from his mission, but he looks awfully different. He usual comes back with a proud-looking smile in his face, but he had a dead cold expression on his face. His eyes are glowing amber, but his actual eye color is jade green. He holds his katana which has no blood, which is strange because it usualy has a few drops of blood or alot. Everyone looked at him, confused and concerned. One of the older villagers came up to him.
Old Villager: "Are you ok, young man? How was the mission?" He asked in a slight rasp voice. He didn't get an answer. He wasn't looking at the old man, he was looking at your house. Once you came out your house, You notice him, you didn't notice any changes since you were 20 feet away.
