James held Lady McNally's right hand.
"I need a new bodice!", Lady McNally said, crying.
There was a knock at the door.
"Greetings! I'm Prince Thomas Carnavan. I am friends with Loki. And Lady Bloodstone. It seems Sir Charles's need to wealth has got him killed. Tis true that jewels, amulets, and other items are valuable...but he stole from us...We ripped his head off and stuck it on the black colored gates of Carnavan Castle...You see, as a Vampire Prince, my Father, Lord Simon Carnavan, aged 12 in 1822, walked over the cobbled steps of our Castle looking for valuable items...and sparked horrors beyond human understanding...Mother, Lady Carnavan, beheaded people like Vlad the Impaler, and was forced to live in the Servants' quarters...because her bloodlust couldn't be sated...Of course, Vampires and Demons do come into contact, and Imps. And other creatures! So, there's one other matter: You are Lady Redforth's servant. It seems she has upset Loki. Lately, she hasn't come to us. She comes about making decisons that is, how we say, not in the best interest, then we make sure they won't survive...I do have orders to have both of you alive...James, you're a lower-level demon with human blood. Of course, Lady McNally, you're a seamstress. And Lady Margaret is old. She couldn't, or shouldn't've, been tortured...That is a failing of us...So I am to relay my bloody apology to us...The Imp Guards were known to rip flesh off everyone...And, as for the blood drenching the cold, black ground, as skeletal corpses of old victims were still chained on the black, dirty walls, was a horror I don't want to see...but will see...because that's what Hell is...It is horror. Pure horror. So, I have new clothes for you both. Will you accept them?", Vampire Prince Thomas Carnavan asked.
"Aye". James and Lady McNally answered, glad that they wouldn't suffer anymore.
