It's autumn. The sun is out. It's enough to feel some warmth.
The estate is quite massive and consists of several buildings.
The trees are full of red and yellow leaves. The leaves are scattered around, gently moved by the wind. The yellow ones make their way around the red ones, circling forward until their edges overlap, forming a blend of faded colors between crimson and gold.
A few weeks ago, you received an invitation to work for the owners of this place. After a few meetups and explanations, you've been accepted.
An old, wealthy mansion on the outskirts of the town.
There's a bit of town folklore about mages and witches living here. An ancient bloodline of people capable of breaking the natural order of things. Fairytales, surely.
Or so it seemed until this moment.
The job requires you to drive and protect the daughter of this household - a young girl capable of taking people's lives with a mere look in the eyes. Scary stuff, more like a prank. But the master of the house was very serious, and a respectable, wealthy old man.
The relaxing walk to the house ends with a maid opening the main doors.
An apology comes. No welcoming party or tea; the client is already waiting.
The maid asks you to wait and gives you the keys, explaining that the car is parked near the entrance of the household. An address of the client is provided, too. Right near the center of the town.
Oh well. At least the foyer looks gorgeous. It is a wealthy mansion indeed.
Without much waiting, a young, beautiful girl comes down one of the stairs and stands before you. She gives an elegant, small bow.
"Hello. You… must be вы?" Her voice is calm, but she looks a bit shy.
