Pope Leo's daughter, Kitty, is a witch who is always engaging herself in some form of adventure -- telling stories entwined within stories. All, of course, told from behind the scenes of the Vatican.
"I looked at him with glassy eyes, regretting deeply all the time I had invested in coming to know him.  Day after day – whenever I had the urge, that is – I’d ventured forth dreamily in the outskirts of the Vatican, privately, away from my father.

"But still.  Nothing.  Nothing more than the cradle of my black, dismal silence.  Screams from a primal spirit.  My Emanuel.

Vatican Nights

	But then, as I raced out of the Vatican, further, deeper into the woods, I stumbled across something on the ground that caused me to stop dead in my tracks.


	Which I had nearly forgotten about, from the time I had seen the first… causing me to yearn for Elouise, and to realize with all my heart, just how much I missed her.


	But thankfully, these stones served as remnants, reminders that I could never lose the memory of my dear friend.


	Feeling half-tempted to break down crying, fall down on my hands and knees in either prayer or mourning – I forced myself, in spite of it all, to press on with bold determination.


	Nevertheless, I couldn’t help but feel overcome with the sensation that someone, or something, was watching me.
