ynopsis

Prologue

A fateful romance amongst three souls that is sad but beautiful.

The time between dog and wolf - L'heure entre chien et loup - (French)is seen when dusk becomes night as the sun slowly wanes between the mountain ridges. This is the time when day and night exist together.

This is the time when objects become dim to sight, and from far away, the lingering approach of a silhouette can be seen. Friend or foe. Or someone who protects. Or just a dangerous wolf...

This is the moment when both the righteous and errant paths all become crimson.

This is the time when friend nor foe are indistinguishable, and it is in which the epic story about the defiance, surrender, love, and friendship of young agents takes place.
