With the prospect of satisfying her thirst finally at hand, she didn't want to waste a single second. Luckily, this was something she had studied; a vampire ignorant in this field of medical knowledge was simply asking for disaster. Thus, when Elisabeth returned with the goblet, knife, and some bandages, it was with a smooth sureness that she unrolled the bandage, extended Laelynn's arm over the white cloth palm down, and positioned the knife over the vein in her wrist. It pulsed gently before her eyes, pulling her attention to the life-giving blood rushing through. As she gazed at it, Elisabeth could almost smell the sharp tang of blood...until she realized what she was doing and directed herself back to the task at hand.
"Okay, you ready?" she asked. "I'm going to cut into this vein here, which should cause a lot of bleeding without being painful or spraying blood everywhere. Just hold your hand over the cup until it gets reasonably full, then turn your palm up and press this pad on top of the cut, hard. Once you do that, I'll wrap the bandage around it to hold it in place, and everything will be fine after a day or two."
Laelynn nodded her assent, and Elisabeth drew the knife across her wrist in a single fluid motion. Immediately, the scent of blood filled the room, this time for real, and Elisabeth found herself unable to tear her eyes away from the steady stream of scarlet as it gushed down the sides of the grey steel goblet. She could just make out her reflection in the burnished metal, and she realized with a start that her fangs were out and she was practically drooling. Then the blood covered the reflection and she forgot her alarm; clearly there were much more desirable things to be focusing on.
Suddenly, the flow stopped. Elisabeth's head snapped up, about to berate Laelynn for stopping - only to see her, pale and shivering, pressing a cloth pad to the cut on her wrist. The spell ended immediately, and Elisabeth, mortified, ducked her head down and focused on wrapping the gauze around Laelynn's wound. When she was done, she grabbed the goblet and quickly retreated to the farthest corner of the room. She had time to shoot Laelynn a single harrowed glance and mutter a hurried "Sorry" before the raised goblet cut her off, and for the next few moments the only sound in the room was that of Elisabeth frantically gulping down the vital liquid.

The Dove's Nest Inn
With a vampire
Although Laelynn felt dizzy and tired, she was just happy to get it over with. She looked over at Elisabeth drinking the blood in the corner of the room and gave her a small smile, saying "It's okay, y-you don't have to apologize for this...
Yawning, she took off her boots and crawled underneath the blanket.
"I know I told you to stay near me, but... I'm going rest for a bit.
F-feel free to explore the city a bit, just make sure to stay out of trouble...
I'll catch up with you later..."
Laelynn then closed her eyes and threw the blanket over her head, ready to get just a little more sleep.

There was no wonder that he was distrustful..and for him to meet someone like her.. someone that didn't seem to be that affected by the fact that he was an adept of the dark arts of necromancy, one of the most disgusting and twisted parts of dark magic...someone that hadn't tried to hunt him down or to kill him.. someone that had saved him.. and someone that was now saying that she wanted to be his friend.. it was just so.. unreal. The ashen haired rubbed his right hand with his hand, as if he was trying to check whether he was hallucinating all of this or not..
Celio sighed, as he pointed his finger at the nearest dead dire wolf..and as he closed his eyes, murmuring the words of power, the dead body of the beast suddenly stood up, with red glowing eyes, its spirit having been brought back from the death and bound to the body by the boy's power, a simple necromancy spell.

In his current exhausted state, these spells might have been a little too much, and the gray eyed boy had to use his scythe's handle to remain standing..
"I don't understand you.. I just don't understand you..", Celio said in a tired voice. "I am a necromancer.. I raise things from the dead as a living. I force their spirits to remain in this world as undead beings, and I defy death. It's disgusting, it's evil, and it's wrong. I should be killed for what I have done..that I am afraid of death is an entirely different thing. How could you even think about befriending someone like me? How can you have all those ideals and morals in your mind?.. I'm not worth saving, and I don't deserve a friend.."

Luna, a forest near Aeston
Luna watched in pure, naive awe as Celio went to work of bringing the wolves back to life, but she was only afraid of the creatures. She became alert, scared only of the thought that the wolves might jump and attack the group again; but once she realized that they didn't move, totally under the control of the boy, her happy, care-free attitude returned. She clapped vigorously, clearly impressed by the show of power, even if it was likely meant to scare her away. He spoke that he didn't understand her, and she noticed then how tired he was. He explained what necromancy was, and how awful and wrong it was...that he should be killed for what he did, and he didn't understand why she'd want to befriend someone like him. He said he didn't deserve a friend, but that he wouldn't say no if she still wanted to be friends. Her ears sunk a little. Perhaps, she decided, it was time to get a little more serious to connect with him a little better. He didn't understand what she'd been through, where she'd come from, and she couldn't blame him. She hadn't said anything of it, after all, but it felt like they had more in common than he realized.
"You know..." She said softly, "The same things were said about me as a child. I was called disgusting, that I myself was evil, that my existence was wrong, because I was the bastard child of an elven woman and a draken man. They wanted me dead. I was a disgrace to both bloodlines; I still am, I suppose." She frowned a little, but her eyes became soft and kind. "...remember how I said I don't like to judge people on a whim..? There was always a reason behind it..." Her smile returned in a gentle form. "And if neither of us is worth saving, if neither of us is desired by everyone else, then we atleast deserve the company of someone like ourselves, don't you think?" After this was when he explained that they could still be friends if she wanted that. Her eyes lit up, a large grin returned to her face, and she ran to him, nearly knocking him down as she wrapped him tightly in a hug. "Ooh, yay! Oh yay! Oho, I'm so excited!" She squealed, continuing to hug him tightly as she did. "I can't believe it; we're friends! Actual friends! Ooh, I promise you won't regret it! Aah, this is just so exciting!"

He just.. couldn't understand her.. when he had showed her his magic.. he really thought.. that it was going to scare her off. That by that, he was going to prove her just what a disgusting person he was...that he was going to prove her that he didn't deserve to have a friend..and he thought that she was going to understand, and just leave. But still..she started by telling him her story...it was so different from his.. but also so similar. She was wanted dead by her own people..she was hated and loathed for something that was beyond her control. And her soft and kind eyes, and her gentle smile.. really made him feel bad for her. And as she continued to speak.. much to his surprise..he actually believed her...that if neither of them were worth saving or desired by anyone else.. then they could at least accompany each other..and then, with a large grin on her face, she ran towards him. For a small moment there, Celio instinctively believed that she was going to attack him.. but what she did left him dumbfounded and bewildered.
She.. hugged him? The ashen haired boy flinched, unused to such a close contact with another living being..slightly turning red because of the embarrassment. She seemed to be so excited about it.. that even if he didn't want to..the necromancer actually believed her a little.. that what she said was true.. and even if he was still hesitating.. the thought of actually having a friend.. it was.. it was so nice.. too nice to ignore.."I.. I still don't understand you.. but.. thank you...I think...", the gray eyed boy said in a sheepish tone. "Then.. we're going to be friends..but.. I'm not sure how this works.. what's next?.."

Rose had exhausted all forms of entertainment she could come up with. There was no point in heading back inside; that would mean dealing with a woman who simply had to be the nastiest cleaning lady on Earth, and would not hesitate to punish Rose for abandoning her chores. She could try to find the orphanage's overseer; a thin, kindly, ancient lady of age 76, she was the complete opposite of the other lady mentioned and was the only person Rose had yet trusted with the fact that her brother was a vampire. Talking to her was always nice, but Rose decided that she simply couldn't bear being in that stuffy building any more that day.
So it was back to the rooftops. She expertly made her way to the main avenue. Wanting to check near the gate again, she crossed the orphanage street near the main avenue on a rope, tightrope style, as if she did it every day (she did). A lady on the ground below near the inn caught her eye, mostly due to the antiquated style of her clothing. She looked pale, almost like - yes, exactly like the irritable girl in the carriage.
Rose, of course, didn't know the danger in confronting this particular lady. She wouldn't have fully grasped it even if she new she was a vampire; after all, the only fanged individual she had known was Francis, and he was scared of his own shadow last time they had seen each other.
Thus, Rose barely hesitated before jumping down from a low roof and landing on a bench sitting down, as if it was something normal people did all the time (it wasn't). Just 10 feet from Elisabeth, the vampire would have to be blind not to notice the girl.
"G'day, ma'am," she began in her trademark Cockney accent. She waited for a response from the newcomer to the city.

She took a moment to size Rose up. Her clothing was simple and utilitarian, a theme that applied to her appearance as a whole. Judging on looks alone, Elisabeth concluded that the girl must belong to the human lower class. Supposedly, said humans were the meanest of animals, for even lowly rats and birds had the freedom to do as they liked. On the other hand, serfs and the like were supposed to live brutish lives of manual labor, and the girl looked like she hadn't worked a day in her life - as was evident from the fact that she was randomly accosting strangers in the middle of the day.
Elisabeth tutted at the girl and waggled her finger. "What is a girl like you doing, running so carelessly around the city anyway? Don't you have somewhere to be?"

Although Rose was certainly being very rude, she wasn't intending to be so and probably didn't know she was.
She frowned for a moment and looked Elisabeth straight in the eyes.
"If you don't mind me asking, are you quite well? You look paler than my brother, and he's a -"
She closed her mouth quickly. She couldn't tell just anyone that, after all. She looked closely at Elisabeth, and apparently judging her to be trustworthy through some roundabout method of reasoning, continued in a whisper.
"He's a vampire. Has been for seven years. A real nice sort, though. You won't tell, will ya? It's not fair to give out secrets, and I don't want him to get hurt."

Rose, or as she calls herself, 'The Black Rose of Doveport'
in a bed in an inn
Rose seemed to have transitioned from being knocked out to just being asleep, and was sleeptalking nonsense. Or at least it seemed like nonsense to everyone else.
"... mmph... I'm the Black Rose of Doveport, Queen of the Urchins, at your service... what? No, madam overseer, I've already swept the stairs twenty-six times today. I need to find Francis before the pale lady in the weird dress eats him... no, I didn't wash the dishes. The dishes can wash themselves... serves them right... why does the world keep spinning?... make it stop, I want to get off..."
Suddenly she sat up, awake.
"Where am I? What is this?" She glanced around and instinctively reached for her sword, only to find that it had been taken from her. "Stand back, I have a... flute... great. Just great. You know, I've had plenty of people get mad at me for being nosy, but this is new."
She glanced around again. Now wide awake, she could make out the forms of Laelynn and Elisabeth.
"You two. Especially you, you with the antiquey dress. I never should have said a word to you. You're with the Order of Yvdohr, aren't you? You want to kill my brother. This is why I don't share secrets. Well, let me tell you this, you can torture me all you want, but I'll never talk! You have no right to put him to death because of what he is!"
She waved her silver flute at Elisabeth like a sword. Right about then, she was hit with a splitting headache, most likely from being hit by Elisabeth. She fell back onto the bed, still holding her flute.
"Ughhh..."

"It's the girl from before," she hissed. "She's been stalking us this entire time, and I'm pretty sure she knows I'm a vampire. Apparently her brother is one too, so she probably recognized me somehow." She glanced back at the girl to make sure she was still incapacitated on the bed. Satisfied that the urchin wasn't going anywhere anytime soon, she pulled Laelynn back to the center of the room to face the girl on the bed.
"Alright!" she began, "Listen up! You are going to answer all of our questions, or else." She glared at the girl. "First - why were you following us? Why is your bother a vampire? Why are you so obsessed with vampires anyway?"
As Elisabeth stared at the girl, her eyes began to glow a dull red. The pupils diluted into a swirling mess of color as Elisabeth focused her hypnosis spell on the unfortunate girl in front of her.
