A huge statue stood there.
Two young women carved from white marble.
Twins.
One held a blooming flower.
The other held a broken star.
Lux stared upward.
An inscription decorated the base.
THE TWIN LADIES OF HOUSE VALESSA
Beneath the first: CELESTINE (STAR OF FORTUNE)
Beneath the second: AURELIA (STAR OF CALAMITY)
Lux folded his arms. "So which one of you is ruining everyone's evening?"
A bell rang.
The entire square changed.
People stopped.
Merchants looked toward the hill overlooking town.
Lux followed their gaze.
There, beyond iron gates and immaculate gardens, stood an enormous noble estate.
A carriage was descending toward town.
People began gathering.
"The ladies!"
"Lady Celestine!"
"The twins are coming!"
Lux watched.

The carriage approached.
Two girls sat inside.
