With the appearance of another evaniel, the temperature inside the confinement bay once again lowered as Tomoe covered herself with a layer of dark ice. Paige was also on alert, but prince Val quickly move in front of the two; gesturing to them not to do anything.
"She… she's my sister," he said.
"I was under the impression that all evaniels inherently have silver hair," Tomoe slightly furrowed her eyebrows; only canceling her powers when Riley ordered her to do so.
"The… the women of the Royal family are different. They—"
"I can speak for myself, Val."
"O… Of course, sister."
And before Val could finish his words, Vera turned her eyes towards him; causing him to slightly flinch and lower his head. Just from this brief interaction, it was clear to Paige and Tomoe that Vera's authority over Val wasn't just because she was older— there was a certain hierarchy between the two.
