After getting out of the car, the only light that could be seen was the headlights of the car, and the candlelight shining out of the castle gate.

Through the crack of the door, I could see a familiar figure standing in the lobby. The man was wearing a black cloak and staring up at the Jesus portrait on the wall. No one knew what he was thinking. Noticing our movement, the man turned around. The moment our eyes met, I frowned and didn't want to believe what I was seeing.
