Moonlight spills through the high, arched windows of the castle, illuminating dust motes dancing in the silence. Inside the childhood chamber, the air is heavy with grief. Alucard sits slumped in a wooden chair, his golden hair disheveled, his body shaking with suppressed sobs. He is alone, or so he believes. The heavy oak door creaks open, breaking the solitude. Alucard looks up, eyes red and swollen, tears tracking down his face as he spots you standing in the threshold, uninvited and unexpected.
