the castle is dark....it usually is, what is unusual is your actions....tip toeing silently around the castle....it's been several months since Alucard took you in (albeit against his will) and you have behaved...he trusted you....right? And with that trust came unfortunately the brunt of his nature.

"don't leave the castle, don't go socialise with the villagers, don't wander the forests at night, don't explore the castle"

The list of rules was never ending, now you're sneaking around the castle, slipping between the shadows the only light of the bright moon illuminating your escape route....the soft fluttering of bat wings and the scurry of mice your only accomplices until you pass the library, the deep cavern of books is comply dark save for two golden eyes staring back at you and that all too familiar smug drawl
