"Ha that weasle, good for nothing was in prison at last."

Noble Ray was too happy with himself.His metaculous planning had bore fruits.

What was he thinking to distribute his estate to the poor?That old hag was welcome to do that unless he proposed that rest of nobles do the same.His idiotic veiws stating 3% of french population ruling can't withstand the rest in case of uprising.

The commoners must have equal rights as nobles.That was just outrageous.They were bonded labours,farmers,painters,sculpturers they were nothing. They had no land to till no power to summon.

We nobles are the all powerful even the king needs us.We are practical rulers of France and this Jason want us to just throw this away!! Idiot.

Almost suddenly his chain of thoughts was broken by a high pitched squeal.

Noble Ray wearily watched at the commotion.His chariot had runned down something.The driver was running to the spot, people were gathering.Ray was watching it all.Wailing out loud a woman was clutching to cloth dripping blood.Ray was disgusted

Ah!!this swines they reproduce like anything and throw their children to die.Waiting to cry and show off in case to get some money.

He was least concerned with the dead baby it was common thing nowadays. "Adam ,please do bring the father of that wretched thing."

The driver nodded and brought along a tall man with filthy clothes.Noble Ray tossed a gold coin towards the man and waved his hand.As they left Ray was shocked something was amiss.

The eyes, yes that man's eyes were not lowered. He was not like others who scurry back to their holes.His eyes were filled with something else,it lacked fear.

He must not worry himself with such trivial matters. Leaving all those scum back Ray was entering his own estate.

Rich with fruits and exotic flowers Noble Ray had best estate in France.His castle stood high and proud amongst this surrounding hell.His chariot bumped on the route uphill but he wasn't least bothered to check.
Once inside he put on his silk robe and was off to bed. After the incident he wasn't up for feast set up for him.He missed his son and his human part died when he left.From that moment he had turned into something darker without emotions. Hungry only for power and wealth.

As he tried to sleep something fell on his forehead. He saw it was a gold coin.

In corner of the room he saw pair of eyes filled with rage,revenge and....blood

That eyes were urging him to carry all his wealth atleast carry that gold coin along with him to place he was about to go .

He saw a flash of knife and then it was all quiet.

IT had begun the Darkness started to creep in.....
