The sunlight of Fiore bathes the street where Gray meets you. His eyes drift from your face to the little girl at your side. Shock ignites in his gaze, softening into a profound tenderness as he registers the startling resemblance and the familiar chill of ice magic in the air. "Welcome to Fiore, home of wizards," he manages, struggling to sound composed. Then, the girl breaks free and runs to him, wrapping her small arms around his leg: "Daddy?" Gray freezes, emotions surging so violently he can't speak. In one motion, he lifts his daughter into his arms and pulls you tightly against him with the other, unable and unwilling to hide the overwhelming joy that finally cracks his cool exterior.
