He gasped at the searing pain in his temples; clutching his head in his hands。
A bewildering flash of images assailed him; overwhelming in their intensity and their power。
It was over in an instant; the pain gone as if it had never been; but the images were seared forever
into his mind’s eye。
‘As you will it; Lady; so shall it be done;’ he whispered。
‘Calard?’ called Raben; straining to see him。
‘We have to go;’ said Calard; turning his back on the dais; where all five of Merovech’s vampiric
lieutenants how now arisen。
Calard hurried to Raben’s side。
‘We have to go;’ he said again。
‘Sounds good to me;’ said Raben。
‘Put your arm around me;’ said Calard; and then he lifted Raben to his feet。 The outcast knight
groaned in pain; but did not cry out。 Together; they staggered across a floor littered with the dead;
making their way towards the chamber’s exit。 The few of Merovech’s knights that still stood paid them
no heed; staring in wonder at the duke and his newly arisen entourage。
At the door of the chamber they paused; glancing back within。
The scene was one of utter devastation。 Hundreds of bodies were sprawled across the marble floor。
Many were not yet dead; and the ground rippled with movement。 Their cries and moans were pitiful。
Blood was splattered up the walls; and more than a few of the bodies had been partially devoured。 The
corpse of the monstrous varghulf lay motionless upon the dais。 Merovech descended the stairs of the
raised platform; flanked by the five lieutenants that had served him seven hundred years earlier。
The few living knights still standing in the room dropped to their knees before Merovech。 The duke
ignored them; walking past with barely a glance。 His companions; however; circled them like wolves。 As
one; they closed in; and began to feed。
Merovech dropped to one knee alongside Bertelis’s headless corpse; and Calard thought he saw
something approaching sorrow ghost across the duke’s features as he placed a hand upon his brother’s
chest。 Then Merovech raised his head; looking down the length of the chamber directly at Calard。 He
stood; and began walking towards them。
‘We have to leave;’ said Raben。
Calard nodded; and supporting the outcast’s weight; hurried from the room。
They almost collided with Chlod as he came bowling down a wide set of stairs。 The peasant was
covered from head to toe in blood。
No words were spoken; and after a brief pause; Chlod moved forward to help support Raben。 The
outcast threw his arm over his shoulder and the three of them began making their way from the palace of
Mousillon。

‘Gods; peasant;’ said Calard。 ‘You stink。’
Drained of blood; the corpse was dropped unceremoniously to the ground。 The vampire’s flesh was
flushed; and its mouth and chin was stained with congealing gore。
Nothing living moved within the great hall。 Every corpse has been bled dry to satiate the thirst of the
duke’s newly risen lieutenants。
It would not be long now; Merovech knew。
Within the hour; the first of the drained knights stirred and rose unsteadily to its feet; staggering like a
newborn colt。 Darkness lingered in its eyes; and its lips curled back to reveal newly formed canines。
More knights stirred as they awoke to darkness; and Merovech smiled。
‘Welcome; brothers;’ he said; spreading his arms wide。 ‘Welcome to damnation。’
