The Harbringer

Revelations

9 HOURS LATER

"Where the hell did I put it?"

Ronan was currently looking for a suit to wear for Diluc's "celebration". Apparently in about 3 days, it would've been his father's 47th birthday, that is if he was still alive.

"Yo, what you looking for?"

Rosetta says closing the door.

"Oh, I'm looking for a suit."

"A suit?"

"Yes."

"Then why are you looking for a suit, in the basement."

Rosetta says making Ronan realize.

"Um......"

He slowly heads upstairs then sprints out.

"Don't need to thank me!"

2 HOURS LATER

"I'm back....."

Ronan says holding a suit.

"You finally find something you like?"

Rosetta says as she slices a loaf of bread.

"Yep. Also, I'll be going to the Dawn Winery in a few days. Should I grab some grape juice for you when I get back?"

"Sure do that. Also, dinner's ready."

Rosetta says handing a sandwhich made out of chicken and a fillet of fish.

"Wait when did we have fish?"

"Oh, Eula gave it to me. She said she caught it on dragonspine and that she caught to many so she gave me about 3."

"Ah........."

"What? Don't worry she told me you aren't a dad yet so don't worry."

"Hey shut up!"

3 DAYS LATER

It was currently 6 PM and Ronan was now adjusting his tie.

"Hm....... hey Rosetta! Do I look good enough?"

He says showing his sister his attire.

"Yep, you look good enough."

He was wearing a white long sleeve shirt along with a dark violet suit and violet pants with black shoes.

"Alright, Eula's coming here in a while so that you don't go somewhere."

"Wait wha-"

But instead of listening Ronan decides to leave.

IN THE DAWN WINERY

Diluc was currently sitting outside of the mansion as he slowly enters the house. But before he could go in Ronan arrives.

"You're late."

"Wait I thought you said it would start 6? It's literally 6 right now."

"I said dinner will start at 6. But you should arrive at 4:30."

"Oh......."

"It doesn't matter anymore, just head in."

"Alright."

Inside the Mansion was filled with guests, some were wealthy merchants, some were nobles, some were adventurers and 3 members of the Knights of Favonious, Kaeya, Lisa and Jean.

Soon Diluc gathers everyone's attention, he then starts a short speech.

"Once again, I thank everyone for attending my father's 47th birthday. He was a simple man, he may have been a very wealthy merchant. But he once told that if it wasn't for a young woman who saved him from the harsh cold in Snezhnaya then he wouldn't have even seen the age of 30. So enjoy yourselves this evening!"

"So, anything you wanna tell us?"

Kaeya asks Ronan as all 3 members of the Knights, and Diluc eat in a single table.

"Oh there's nothing."

"Really now~"

Lisa asks in a teasing voice.

"Lisa that one night stand did not mean anythi-"

"Wait, one night wha-?"

Jean asks but is interrupted by Kaeya.

"A knight spotted Eula coming out of your house at 6 in the morning a few days ago."

"Oh, I invited her since it was pretty dark out."

"You sure you didn't do anything?"

"What? Of course not."

"Then why did the knight say her shirt was untied and her hair was a mess?"

".............................................."

"Just admit it Ronan."

"Why would I admit anything I didn't do? It's not like we did anything that night?"

"I didn't even ask if you two did anything."

Soon a staredown between the two started.

"I'm going to take a look at the mansion. Diluc, you mind if you could give me a tour."

"Alright."

"Wait Rona-"

5 MINUTES LATER

"This was my dad's room."

Diluc says as he starts touring Ronan.

"Wow, your dad's room is really....... decorative."

"Oh, when he was alive it was much simpler than this. He actually had a table here before I had it remo- hey are you listening?"

Diluc says as Ronan drops his drink.

"Hey come on, stop being clu-"

But he is interrupted as Ronan grabs a picture frame with a half torn picture inside it.

"Hey put that do-"

He then pulls out the other half of the picture, it was crumpled but it was clear that it was indeed the other half of the picture.

"What? Why do you have the other half?"

"Diluc....... why is this picture here?"

"My dad said that it was a picture of him and the woman who saved him........"

Ronan slowly puts the picture frame down along with the other half of the picture.

"Well, the woman who saved her.......... is my mom."

"What do you me-"

"And she told me, that the man on this picture............ is my father."

"Father? So you're saying that........ we're brothers?"

"It may seem impo-"

"Oh master Diluc here you are! Your father's business partner from his young years has arrived."

"Sorry Ronan, let's finish this later. I have to handle something else."

And with this Diluc leaves Ronan alone.

"Well shit."

A FEW MINUTES LATER

As Ronan leaves the room he meets Diluc and the "guest". As soon as Ronan's eyes land on the "guest", it was as if he was returned to his childhood.

"Oh Ronan! This is our-I mean my father's business friend in Snezhnaya. Vi-"

"Oh don't worry, I know him. Who wouldn't know the 'famous', Viktor Vlad."
