It has been 297 years since the last member of Vash's family passed away.

'That's somewhat of a lie.' The mischievous preteen would say. They would grin too wide to flaunt their wells of knowledge older than Vash himself before running off because a group of kids found a cool worm outside.

They were right, of course. Vash's sisters still lived, a pleasant hum in the back of his head. It stood in stark contrast to his first two centuries of life, but they were worth it in the end.

But still, there was a hole in his heart that had laid bare for 297 years, though it had truly been there for 375.

But something had changed, recently.

Horror stories from the desert told of creatures too migraine inducing to explain, and to terrifying to even describe. Logically, Vash should of taken car eof them immediately, bu the mere thought of harming them made him sick to his stomache. Not to mention his dreams... not even his subconscious would give Vash a straight answer.

Until there was a knock at the door.
