When creating a grimwalker, there is always a slight chance another will crawl out, It's a rare occurrence that has never happened for Belos. Guess today wasn't his lucky day.

The emperor watched as a grimwalker dug their way out of a patch of dirt very quickly, a promising factor that would determine it's future. Using a galdorstone that was bigger then usual was paying off. Belos had walked away from the patch of dirt to a near by desk, and was now unfolding a pair of clothes that was meant for a child. With the clothes in hand he walked over to the patch of dirt to find two grimwalkers? One taller, slightly chubby with thick messed up hair and one shorter that looked starved with thin hair that wasn't messy, while not as messy as the taller ones. Turns out using a bigger galdorstone didn't work as great as he thought it would he's read about this happening before, surprisingly this had never happened to him. Well guess he'd have to kill the runt. Belos walked over to the grimwalkers and transformed his hand into a spike and raised it above his head.

He couldn't bring himself to do it, the taller one held onto the smaller while he shoved his head into their shoulder and cried. It wasn't only how they where holding each other that made him unable to kill one without injuring the other, it was how the smaller looked exactly like his older brother and how the grimwalkers reminded him of how Caleb held him once after both of their parents had gotten sick and died, this time the roles where reversed. Belos sighed as he lowered his hand and left the room to find a bigger pair of clothes, it probably wouldn't fit the taller one.

He walked out and saw the Head Scout in his throne room, waiting for him. Once she noticed him, she kneeled down "Emperor, what is it you requested to see me for." She asked, Lilith Clawthorne the sister of the infamous Owl Lady, he's always been surprised she joined a coven. "My brother has been killed by wild magic, to keep his two children safe he has sent them my way. I request you watch over them while I find clothes for them." He said with his voice more monotone then usual, it was all a lie, one he hadn't told before but it still wasn't the truth. Lilith was shocked, to say the least, the emperor had a brother that decided to not work along side him, instead he got married and had children, his brother had just died as well and sent his children to him who he trusts her to watch over them. It was a lot to take in. "I'll lead you over to them" Belos had said before Lilith could even think of a response. Both witches walked over to a side room, Belos unlocked the door and found both children asleep still holding each other covered in an dirty old table cloth that was most likely pulled from the trash.

This was how it started, the misperception that a bigger galdorstone and a little bit more of the other ingredients would result in a stronger and older grimwalker.
