Magic
Epilogue
The sounds of footsteps echoed off the porcelain walls, floor, and ceiling of the long hallway. Light was only visible on the jewels embedded on either side of the walls, between the display windows holding objects of victories past.
A figure cloaked in cloth of gold stopped at one of these windows, reached put its gloved hand touching a shining turquoise stone. Glass on the display window lifted up, revealing all the idols sitting on the velvet cloth. The figure extended the other hand out, setting an onyx statue of a three-headed elephant next to a ruby statue of Kali.
"Another fine addition to your ever growing collection, my lord."
The figure smiled, "Indeed." Taking his gloved hand off the turquoise, he turned to see a young woman dressed in blue velvet four feet away from him, "Have preparations begun for our return to Japan, Marijke?"
She gave a deep bow; her black curls fell over her shoulders, "Yes my lord. All preparations have begun and we shall be ready to depart within the hour."
"This pleases me greatly," He walked past her slowly, then stopped. A smirk spread across his face, "When I recall the last time I set foot upon Japans soil, I cannot help but smile. It has always been a country to hold strong powers, however, those chosen to employ it are always so feeble."
"Perhaps they are poorly informed, my lord?"
"Correct," His gaze turned to a display that held five jars and twelve tiny statues of animals. "We must create a new display area for these new objects of power. I want them in one piece so I may gaze upon their splendor once they are mine."
"As you wish, my lord, I shall send for the architect at once." She stood up straight and walked forward.
"Marijke."
She stopped.
"This time try not to sink your lovely fangs into him, I would much rather you stave off your thirst until we arrive in Japan. And when you have finished summoning my architect, send for the rest of my envoy, for we have much to discuss."
"As you command, Lord Haytie."
A/N:: Little preview for you there on what's to come in the sequel. Holy cheese and crackers! It's.. it's done! Excuse me while I try not to faint.

Now that Magic is over, please let me know what you think of the story, do you like the new characters? Was my character adaption of the RW characters decent and consistent?
