(YN) sat the desk in the guest room. Lenore had sent him from books a day after his recovery. They were on the geography of the world and vampire and human history. The Sith read about how pitiful the humans in this world were. They had allowed themselves to forgot years of advancement and science in favor of a simple religious life where you didn't have to think just listen to the church. He also read about vampire attributes and powers. The Sith was trying to find any information on vampire mental senses. (YN) found nothing of the sort. This hinted at the possibility that vampires could be mind probed with the force. The Sith relaxed into the chair. This explains why Lenore couldn't sense him analyzing her aura.

He internally laughed at them. These people were disgraces compared to humans of his world. A world where humans dominated the galaxy over the many alien races. The vampires seemed to be the only people making sense. They remembered everything due to their immortality. (YN) drew a connection to them and the old Techno Union. They both sat on all this technology and luxuries but only shared it when it was necessary or when they wanted to.

The Sith Lord began his meditation on top of the bed. (YN) felt his condition gnawing at his very being. Even devouring the life force of hundreds couldn't save him now. " I won't become like Nihilus. " (YN) thought. It was a fate worse than death. To be so far gone from the mortal plane, only a mask was keeping your soul among the living. (YN) sensed a new presence in the castle. One currently in a fit of rage. Lenore and Striga were with this one. They were calm but there was a hint of annoyance emanating from Lenore.

He sighed and looked into a small mirror on the desk. Some semblance of color had returned to his face ever since he drained the little boy. It pained him to remember his mummified face. The last time he had drained someone so young was when during his childhood. During the incident when he drained his entire village. The men, women, children, pets, and even the newborns. Soon the little boy's face would be forgotten like the rest of the drained ones. Another number on a list no one kept track of.

There was a knock on the door. (YN) wasn't allowed to open the door due to it being locked from outside. People only knocked to let him know they were coming in. He could've easily broken through the door or used force lightning to melt the locks. But, that would undo all the progress he had made. " Who just entered the castle? " The Sith asked as Lenore entered and sat on the desk chair. " Carmilla is finally back. " She replied happily. " I'm going to introduce you to her. " (YN) raised an eyebrow. " As a prisoner? " He asked. Lenore rolled her eyes them smiled. " As a guest who deserves some respect for his cooperation. " She answered. " Spoken like a true diplomat. " The Sith complemented. Lenore placed her hands over her heart. " Your flattery warms my undead heart. " (YN) smirked. " I hope my flattery isn't everything that makes you warm. " Lenore struggled to find an answer, her facial expressions simulating a blush. " Actually, your aura does that too. " She said Lenore got off the chair and sat on the edge of the bed.
" Really? " (YN) asked. " My aura brings chills to those around me. " Lenore leaned closer to him. " Well, it doesn't me. " The two stared into each other's eyes until (YN) broke the silence. " We can't keep Carmilla waiting. " He said. " Of course. " Lenore responded. The two got off the bed and led the room. (YN) put on his helmet on his way out.

After a bit of walking, they stood at the door. Lenore placed her hand on his shoulder. (YN) turned to face her. " What is it? " He asked. " Try not to kill Striga and don't talk unless she or the others talk to you. " Lenore said. " I understand. " The Sith assured. Lenore opened the door. The room had a large glass round table. Surrounding it were 4 extravagant and comfy-looking chairs. Two vampires sat in them. A dark-skinned vampire and Striga. The third was pouring a glass of blood. " This is Darth Cystrial of the Sith order. " Lenore introduced.

The one with the glass walked to (YN). She placed her glass on the table. " So your the one from another dimension? " The vampire asked.  asked. " Yes, I am. " (YN) replied. " I take it your queen Carmilla. " She had long white hair, pale skin, and a gold, black, and red dress. " Of course. " She said. " Why aren't you bowing down to me? " This earned a slight chuckle from the Sith Lord. The helmet's voice change made it even creepier. " I only bow to one master. That is the rule of the Sith. " He said. " And I haven't found one yet. " Carmilla scoffed and turned away. " Men and their stupid religions. " She said.

The dark-skinned vampire looked to Carmilla. " We should cut him open and see what makes him tick. " She said. Striga nodded. " I'll second Morana on that. " (YN) pointed to Morana. " How about I snap your neck? " He said. Before Striga could react, she saw Morana cough out the blood she had just sipped from her glass. The dark-skinned vampire grasped at her throat as she struggled to speak. " See, choking a vampire to death is impossible due to obvious reasons. " (YN) started. " But, they still feel the excruciating pain. " Striga shot up from her chair. " Release her now! " She shouted. Her green eyes starting to glow. Lenore stood in front of him. " Let Morana go, (YN). " She said sternly. " You've made your point." The Sith nodded. He lowered his arm and eased his hand. Morana took a few deep breaths and sneered at (YN).

Carmilla was just drinking her glass, watching the whole ordeal. She motioned Striga to sit down. " It seems I underestimated you, Lord Cystrial. " She said. " You may not be another idiot after all. Leave us for today. Me and my sisters have much to discuss. " Lenore whispered bye to (YN). " One of the guards will escort you to your room. "
