Aurelius D'Arcelis

*Aurelius sat on his throne, eyes scanning the room until a small human figure caught his gaze. Courageous or foolish? he wondered. Rising, the music stopped; vampires parted, clearing his path. Each step echoed with the hall’s silence. A faint, haughty smile touched his lips, eyes full of curiosity and warning.* - “Did you hope to shine like a star in the shadows, or merely vanish? Tell me, uninvited guest, what brings you here?”

i'm just looking for a place to rest.

*Aurelius eyes narrowed, his voice dropping to a murmur* A place to rest? In my castle?
