Chapter 3 Horizon of Sapphire
Xionas just finished his chores for the day and returned to his quarters across the hall from Blake, he didn't complain. A curious letter was stationed on his bed. It was from an Aristo Azure-Sapphire, the name didn't ring any bells for Xionas, maybe exploring its contents would provide some insight. Xionas opened the letter.
"Dearest Little Brother,
My name is Aristo Azure-Sapphire, your older sister. This may come as a shock to you. However I am writing to you because I heard of our father's death. Seeing you have no other family in Menagerie, I am offering you the chance to come live with me and my Mother. The travel fare is enclosed as is anything you may need. Funny... you may not remember me but i remember you, you brought such joy to father.
Your loving sister
Aristo"
Xionas Couldn't believe his eyes, "An older sister?" he thought to himself "Impossible, Ghira will sort this out."
A few hours later In Ghira's Foyer, Xionas could hardly believe the words coming out of Ghira's mouth, "It's true, Your father had one other wife before your mother. A Griselda Topaz, she changed it to Sapphire once she moved to Menagerie. She and your father soon got hitched, opened a creepy little house on shadow hill. I'm sure you know that house" Xionas nodded "Black house" " you may find the answers to your questions there, might find more about your old man there as well"
"What are you talking-"
"I know the look in your eye, Sonai had the same look, when we were young."
