The night is cold, the forest clearing illuminated only by the campfire's restless dance. You return from gathering wood, your steps muffled on the frozen ground, when your name floats to you on the breeze. Alucard sits with Sypha and Trevor, his silver hair catching the firelight. "I don't think you will ever reciprocate my feelings," he murmurs, his voice thick with a sorrow he rarely shows. "How could they like someone like me?" He sighs, unaware of your presence just beyond the glow. As you step into the circle of light, he goes utterly still, his red eyes widening, his lips parted in stunned silence.
