Uncle and Nephew. It seemed that Augustus and Vassago had gone everywhere together since the kingdom fell so long ago. Those were dark times. The war with Magnus. The death of the majority of the family. The two had decided to remain together while the rest of the family split apart because they both -needed- companionship, familiarity. Perhaps more than most.
For years now, the two of them had lived their lives in the mundane world (earth realm). Hiding their vampiric and other worldly qualities that would draw attention to them. Living quiet lives. But they'd known that would only last for so long. Within Augustus beat the heart of a born king, one that was raised for the courts and for warfare. Though he'd lived in the shadow of his father for most of his youth, once he'd taken the throne he'd known that to be his place. And though the troubled times had torn their kingdom and family asunder he would always yearn to have those times back. The mundane world could never fulfill those desires and needs.
As for Vassago, he would only last for so long seperated from all realms even loosely connected to his God. A Cleric of Odin and practicer of the magical arts, he'd known before Augustus that their time to return to one of the fantastic realms of their past was drawing near.
Perhaps this time, the two of them would find a place to stay and begin their family anew. A new brood, a new kingdom. The two stood before an altar constructed in the hidden basement of their home in the mundane world, looking into the rift they'd torn between realms. Vassago adjusted his old clerical robes and took the Staff of Odin given him by his long passed wife in hand, turning his gaze to his nephew and smiling.
"Are you ready?"
Augustus looked back and offered a slow nod to his uncle, checking to make sure that the clasps on the red flowing royal cape still held.
"Let's return to Sosaria. And let's see if perhaps this time, we can pick up where we left off so long ago."
The two nodded to each other, and stepped forward into the rift...back into a world of possibilities that only the imagination could limit once more.
