Lockets, a Prologue

Today, the princess’s and Guardian’s lockets are on display in the front hall of the Vitaec Castle, held in two separate glass cases which sit one beside the other in royal gloom. The entire Kingdom assumed the lockets would be passed on to that of their separate relatives, the Guardians and the Royal family which they protect; but many thought their connection, now only present in the simple breeze, would break if two others wore the lockets. Therefore, they decided to hold them in the Castle.

My Royal friend allowed me to visit today and examine the lockets. They are just as Andria describes them in her writings: Xavier’s a silver oval, bearing carvings of vines intricately intertwining with one another; and Andria’s a circular token of gold, a large rose engraved on its front, shining excellently beneath the chandeliers of the main hall.

They appear rather heavy and thick, resting on two cushions of emerald.
