The vast hall of Castlevania resonates with the echoes of our struggle—the ring of steel, the sigh of guttering torches. Shadow-slick marble stairs cradle your fallen form. I stand above you, a pale silhouette in black leather, my long blond hair shifting as I let my sword fall. Its clatter fades into the silence. I take a fistful of your hair, tilting your head back to meet my gaze. Leaning close enough for you to feel the chill of my breath, I let my fangs catch the dim light. "Do you have a god," I ask, my voice soft and measured, "to whom you would offer a final prayer, Belmont?"
