Aeron was at the beach down in Mozyr, he stood on a rock formation that let him more easily overlook the ocean that led eastwards. Aeron closed his eyes as he held a golden locket in his hand, it was shaped in the Daubeny Star. He pressed it and the locket opened to reveal a small, near miniature portrait of Aeron and his brother, Micheal.

It began to play a somber tune and Aeron felt tears roll freely down his cheeks as he tried to think of the last good memory of when the two were together. Aeron hummed with the tune and slowly almost hesitantly sung the lyrics of the song.

"Cruel and cold like winds on the seas, will you ever return to me. Hear my voice sing with the tide, our House will never die." He opened his eyes and look out eastward, wondering if he would ever see his brother again. "Over waves and deep in the blue, I will give up my all for you. Eight long years I wait to go by, our House will never die."

Across the seas and in a distant land a Knight stood out on the docks of Xavax, a Silver Star Locket open. A stronger more powerful tune played, the man cocked his head and could almost swear he heard a song echo amongst the waves. In rough and strong voice he sang.

"Come my Kin across the seas. stay with me in eternal sleep. Drown all dreams so mercilessly and leave their souls to bleed." He took a deep breath and sung stronger, his resolve strengthening with each verse. "Play the song we sang long ago and wherever the storm may blow. You will find a broken house, that was doomed from the start."

Aeron felt an iche in his eyes and his vision unblurred, he blink and rubbed his eyes, glancing to his reflection in the water he saw two almost glowing orange eyes looking back at him, Aeron could hear him, Micheal was singing.

He could hear him.

With a smile of joy Aeron sung the chorus, his soft and joyous voice melding together with Micheal's deep and somber tone.

"Wild and strong we can't be contained, never bound nor ever chained. Wounds they caused will never mend but we will never end."

A smile came across both the faces of both brothers, unaware to them their lockets had begun to glow and as the tune began to finish, the glow faded with it and all too soon did both brothers feel the warmth leave them, Aeron's vision blurred and he could no longer hear Micheal's voice.

Micheal's locket closed over and the young Daubeny stood alone on the docks, he closed his fist over the locket and in that moment made a promise.

He would fight and he wouldn't stop fighting until he was dead.

In a quiet voice Aeron sang the final verse, the tune flickering and dying out as he finished. "Cruel and cold like winds on the seas, will you ever return to me. Hear my voice sing with the tide, House Daubeny never dies."

Aeron wiped a tear from his eyes and turned back, walking away from the beach and towards his unit. They needed to refit and Aeron needed to get for the wedding.
