Summary: In a place when magic hides in every nook and cranny, and witches are planning the curriculum, there are artifacts and magical objects to be found at every corner. Each one of them can possess a special power or a special person. That's why Headmistress Xavier insists so heavily upon labeling anything her staff and students bring around to the Mansion.
There is however one place when that rule has never been used. The attic of the Mansion is where the old world of magic and science meet. Biology textbooks lay strewn across the chest full of wands and amulets hang from skeletons that once stood in classrooms. In there is the vase that has the power to change the fate of the entire world, releasing the King of all Demons who will then summon his whole army.
It's that vase that Charles Xavier stumbles upon one day while looking for his late father's notes. He breaks it and while trying to fix his blunder pulls horrible fate over himself and people dear to him. But is he right in assuming the worst? Are the stories right when they describe the terrible monster that will hunt whoever shall posses the vase? After all, we know that history is written by victors.
Let yourself be pulled into a tale of love and its fruit, born from unexpected union between two worlds.
