Midnight has passed, and a light snow is fluffing down on the castle battlements and piling up in soft drifts in the corners of the courtyard. Voices come distantly from within the castle. All is still otherwise.

And then a figure materializes on the wall. A giant of a man with scaly skin and a horned brow, he turns his head as though listening, his long tail sweeping away the snow.

-They live for one another.-

-Those are two of the most beautiful things that I know,- he says, gently severing the link and looking down at her. -Do you want to see the third?-

[random_xtras]

They sit like that for some time, Hunter feeling quietly contented. But then he lifts his head with a sigh as he realizes how near to dawn it is. -I have to go.-
