A Story.
How old are you?
Ulises didn't know what to do that night.
He felt that it was too much for him.
If he had been given the choice he would have been far away from that place.
But his grandma had asked him to help someone for her before she died and, even though his relationship with her was anything but close, he felt that he needed her request.
Well, she was all the family he ever knew and despite the fact that she left him in the care of others, she still took care of paying to cover his needs.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Before long a young woman in her twenties answered.
Adula
Yes. Do you need something?
They gave each other a confused look.
Adula
What do you want to know?
Adula
That's not something you should ask to a complete stranger.
The heir.
Adula
Was that the business you had with me?
Adula
Then, I hope you have a good...
Ulises stopped her before she could close the door.
Ulises
I'm Mrs. Alba's grandson and she... Well, she asked me to help you.
Adula
I don't need any help!
Adula shouted and immediately closed the door.
For a couple of minutes Ulises stood there thinking about what he should do next.
He decided to knock again.
Adula
Get out of my house!
Adula
I don't need anyone's help!
Adula
I can take care of the workshop by myself!
She answered from the other side of the door.
Ulises
You mean my grandmother's workshop?!
Ulises
Are you, perhaps... My grandmother's heir?
Ulises' family belonged to an old lineage of mages and witches that dated back to the Middle Ages.
When the patriarch or the matriarch of a family is about to die they named an heir to succeed them as the titular of the family's workshop.
It was customary for the eldest son or daughter to become an heir, but in rare cases someone from outside the family could be named heir.
