  The evening hour was the best time for the winds to sing and carry every secret they could around, songs so serene but secrets that made you shiver, one would think it was just the chill of it.

Beasts?

If Nirven had heard correctly, she heard the servant call them beasts. Again.

It was more nerve-racking because mother didn't correct him. Did that mean dearest Nareth wasn't lying?

"Beasts?" Again, she voiced out her thoughts as her maidservant struggled to clean up her very long, thick hair. Most people wished they had such hair like hers, a pure ebony luxuriant hair with such shiny glow with it, but Nirven only wished they knew how tough it was to maintain a hair such as this, even worse since mother would never let her cut it low, trim it? Yes but never enough to her taste.

Her maidservant, Medea only laughed to her question, as she went over to a cupboard, taking the biggest comb from it. "Half-beasts," she corrected.

"You sound like you know about them," Nirven said as she sighed, resting completely on the chair, she sat on. Not ladylike of course. The girl was already so tired.

"Oh milady, just rumours you see. I choose to believe that rumours sometimes carries a little atom of truth." She said, combing thr lady's hair downwards till it touched the ground and swept the floor.

"I wonder what father wants to do with such people, I fear- I fear it wouldn't end well Medea." She spoke as though she was talking to herself but at the mention of her servant's name, only then Medea knew she was referring to her.

"Your sister- Nareth. She couldn't wait to mix with the crowd like a commoner and see them as they're ushered into our little village," Medea spoke out her worry for the little child. It wasn't news that Nareth had always been the clumsy and most mischievous of the three sisters, she was such a blissful trouble.

Nirven could only laugh and to the maid it was such a magical sound, she would love to hear over and over, no one took these moments with Nirven for granted. "My sister is smart, I'm very sure she must have stolen her maids dress in order to mix as she should into the crowd, clumsy little girl. I pray, mother doesn't find her," was the response from the second sister.

"That's not the right prayer,"

"Then what is Medea?" Asked Nirven.

"I pray she doesn't start her mischievousness so much it lands her into trouble with those half-beasts."

Aron / Aaron.

  Although dusk had arrived, it was still so easy to see the dark clouds gathering round the sky, hiding the moon from the surface of the Earth. He smirked, today Selena would have to wait.

He stood still, and hearing the footsteps of his brothers halt, he knew they also stood right beside him, their eyes lingering on the little bright light that screamed from afar, with the kind of senses they inhabited, they could see it clearer, and the sounds that came along with it, the harmonica and guitars, too loud for them already, all they needed was a good dinner and a long night sleep.

"Lousy humans," muttered his elder brother, who was already irritated at the loud music from the little village. Apparently, it wasn't like the villagers were loud. These men had better sense organs than an average human, especially Thur hearing, it came into good use, but sometimes all they wanted was decorum.

"It's for our arrival brother," said the youngest amongst them, Theo. He was just a teenager who had just welcomed his true beastly self months ago, he was known to be very witty, and annoyingly sarcastic, but he never dared try being all that to his brothers, especially Aron.
