Well… I’ll start by saying this: every reception room and every corridor in my father’s houses are protected by twenty-four-hour surveillance equipment. Only the bedrooms and the bathrooms are off-limits,” Christophe informed her. “You can see the date and the exact time displayed at the foot of every frame.”

For in this realm belonging to the Watchers, the light that had been since they arrived here and made it impossible to tell day from night for it always was, was quickly fading. Soon a bleak darkness covered the entire platform, and only the whirlwind of fire and lightning could be seen.

Only for my gaze to shift towards the door entrance and I saw her walking into the blaze mansion. At first, I thought I was daydreaming or perhaps my reminisces were playing a joke on me.
