In each family there are different traditions, from the simplest to the most elaborate, all with different purposes and rewards, some do not have or have been left aside over time. The Castelia family is no exception when it comes to traditions.

The Castelia family has the custom that at the age of 22, any firstborn must carry a candle to an altar, and now it is the turn of Nathaniel Castelia who believes that it is too absurd and easy a mission. Well, that mentality will change upon hearing that if he successfully completes it, he would be the first to complete it after his father and aunt.

Nothing is easy when it comes to protection, and even more if behind that tradition is hidden... the greatest betrayal.

The Castelia tradition

The screams of Argenis did not stop, well, that was until a tremor was felt again that shook the chandeliers and made me lower my arms to quickly get up from the floor and look towards the ceiling. 


— What's going on upstairs?!—. I asked trying to calm my restless heart knowing that my grandparents and the guardians were struggling with what had attacked us earlier.— Argenis, please tell me what's going on.— I asked trying to contain my restlessness. 


With no other options, my companion stopped and returned to his human form to look with some fatigue towards the ceiling of the library. 


— I think the darkness is winning—. he mentioned something removed from the grief even though we were in a moment of crisis, I really didn't even understand that guardian. 


— Argenis, put aside that tranquility... We must go and help!—. I yelled at him trying to make him come to his senses, but the prespyesta was not the one I expected.
