“I know.”

Ryker's voice was little more than a whisper. Nyra looked at him.

"You know what?"

He did not reply immediatley. His gaze was still fixed on the photograph. Kael took it from her and examined the note scrawled across the image.

SHE WASN'T ALONE.

"Who was with her?" Nyra asked

Ryker finally looked at her.

"I don't know"

Nyra's expression hardened.

"You said you know"

"I know she wasn't alone"

"That's not the same thing"

"I know"

She took

    "Be still." Ryker stepped in front of her. The figure on the stairs didn't take notice. He took one more step. The lantern light showed the lower half of their face but the hood was still drawn over everything to the mouth. Then they spoke again."Nyra." It was her own voice. Same tone and same slight hesitation before her name. She hated it."Who are you?" Ryker demanded. The figure ignored him."You shouldn't have come here." Nyra tightened her grip around the key."Then why did you leave the door open?"There was silence for a while. The figure's head tilted slightly. For a moment Nyrathought they were surprised. Then they smiled."Your father used to ask questions like that." Ryker raised his weapon."Take off the hood." The figure looked at him."You still haven't learned when to walk away, Ryker." His expression hardened."You know me.""I know enough.""Then you know I'm

    “Don’t open it.” Nyra's mother's voice came from under the floor. She froze and Ryker looked at her."What?" She didn't answer straight away. The voice had been quiet, almost silenced by the three knocksz, but she had heard it."Nyra?""My mother." His expression changed."What did she say.""She told me not to open the room." Ryker stared at the floorboards. Neither of them moved for a few seconds before another knock came from below them. Ryker took out his weapon."Stay behind me.""No." He looked at her."If something is down there I need to know what.""And if it's a trap?""Then we'll know.""It isn't the way traps work.""Neither is standing here arguing while something knocks under our feet." That shut him up. She crouched next to the floorboards and examined them. The house was old but the boards surrounding this part of it were different. They were darker than the rest and one of them had been rep

    The front door opened slowly. The hinges scraped against the floor. Ryker raised his weapon."Stay back." Nyra didn't move. She was staring at the envelope. Her father's handwriting.For Nyra. The door opened another inch. Kael stepped in front of her."Don't come any closer." A man's voice came from outside."Ryker." Still exactly Ryker's voice. But no one appeared. Ryker's grip tightened on his weapon."Show yourself." A quiet laugh answered him."You already know who I am.""No.""You do." Ryker looked at Nyra."Open the letter." She frowned."What?""Open it." The voice outside spoke."Don't." Nyra fingers halted. The voice had changed. It was now her father's.“Nyra, don't open it.” Her stomach twisted. Kael looked towards the door."It's trying to distract you.""How do you know?""I don't." Nyra looked at him."Then don't tell me what to do."

    "Nyra." Lyria didn't move as the stranger spoke calmly."Where is she?""Gone.""Where?" Lyria said nothing. The stranger's eyes darkened,"Don't make me ask once more.""She went North.""To the house?" Lyria's throat tightened."Yes." The stranger smiled."Then, we still have enough time." Lyria's gaze swept over the darkened window."What will you do?""Nothing." Lyria's eyebrow raised in surprise."Nothing?""Not yet." The stranger walked passed her."Let them find what they seek." Lyria turned back to him,"What if they find out?" The stranger paused at the threshold."They won't.""How are you so certain?""Because Nyra is searching in the wrong place." Without another word the stranger vanished in the shadows of the room. Lyria stood rooted to the spot. She knew that was not the worst of it. The absolute worst of it was that, the stranger had been right. Nyra had no idea

    Nyra stared at the figure at the end of the aisle. The creature did not move and neither did she. Kael's hand found hers in the darkness."Don't.""Don't what?" Nyra whispered."Do closer." Ryker moved to their side. "Who are you?" The figure tilted its head. Then it raised the torn piece of the photograph. Nyra could barely see it, but she recognized the handwriting on the back. It was her father's. The masked figure spoke."Your father wanted you to know." Nyra stepped forward."What?" Kael caught her wrist."Wait." The figure suddenly turned."Follow me if you want answers." It disappeared between the shelves."Damn it." Ryker ran after it. Kael followed. Nyra pulled free and went after them."Nyra!" She ignored him. They reached the end of the aisle, but saw nothing. The shelves continued in every direction. Ryker looked around."He couldn't have gone far." Kael crouched near the floor."L
