Christina walked slowly, her newly crafted crimson dress flowing behind her in the wind. All around her the sound of masonry could be heard, she passed a dead oak tree standing limp in a grand courtyard. She smiled slightly to herself, looking around she could see her servants working, rebuilding what once was the great Castle Tyrak. A wolf howling carries across the night and a shiver runs down her spine. The sound jogs a memory, wolf...Graywolf...The Elves... They were still causing her and her house problems. They prevent us from ridding the world of the foolish ones. She thought on, watching as the hundreds of vampire slaves worked through the night. After a time, the vampire Lady came to an answer. A stop to the Tyrak-Elf fighting would be needed, two wars whilst so weak is unwise. I will have to arrange for a meeting with them, now...just to think of something they would want... Christina looked out on to the horizon. The sun would be up soon. Perhaps an early rest will help me figure things out... She wondered as she began to move back towards her bedchamber.
