Tristan's disposition was as icy as the artic region that engulfed his childhood home as the pop that was unanimous with Apparation reverberated in his ears, landing precisely on the chilled stone floor of the dining room, blue eyes darting about as they found an emptiness that was exclusive to the giant fortress. His jaw was taut, his chiseled arms set at his sides as he began a brisk pace, feeling as if he were about to regurgitate his insides. He knew that it dangerous to be here, especially what had occured about a month before. But at the moment he would brave any risk, challenge anyone that stood in his way.
Guilt consumed him, knowing that had he been there for his previous love she would not be dead; it was as simple as that. However, things had not happened that way; and he was going to pay for it for the rest of eternity. She had been right; he couldn't raise Erik under the dark shroud that was the Death Eaters. He still did not have a definite destination in mind, but he very much planned on staying out of the public world for good.
All tear ridden moisture had disappeared from his eyes, set with a coldness that he had never before exhibited. He had not felt this way about someone before and he never would again. The one chance he had had for a fulfilling relationship he had blown, left with only his son, and distantly, his daughter. The only way he could begin to make things up was by bringing up Erik, himself and as a decent citizen, as he knew Morgase had always wanted.
But for now, he had one thing in mind- to face the man that had destroyed his life, and had robbed his son of a mother. The man he had lived with as a rivaling brother and now, a dead enemy that he could exact no true revenge upon. In most cases it would be impossible, but he had the Herrogard to thank for the few things that it allowed.
Swallowing hard, he strode out of the dining room, the large doors creaking as he stepped into the hallway, taking an immediate left and then a right, moving to the door which he knew to be of his father's office. His large hand curled around the ornate knob, finding it to be locked. To an underage witch or wizard this would probably have presented a problem, but as he was no longer under the trace he dismissed the lock as if it was not there with a flick of his wand. The room was dark as he stepped into it, engulfing the trinkets that Valcan's office possessed; he was quite glad that he could not glance at the tree, as he knew the extra bit of information that would now be added under Morgase and Sam's names, only solidifying the reality of their passing in his mind.
"Lumos," he intoned as he groped his way to the basement doorway, making his descent and holding his wand before him like a weapon, as if it would shield off any adversaries.
