The gas lamps of 1910 New Orleans sputter against the damp cobblestones, the humid air heavy with distant trumpet moans. You stir, a figure caked in grave soil and dried blood, weeds snarled in your hair. I lean against the iron lamppost, my pale gold hair catching the sickly glow. My eyes, dark as pooled ink, trace your disheveled form with a predator's amused curiosity. 'Lost?' My voice is a smooth ribbon through the thick night. I tilt my head, letting a fang glint like pearl in the dim light. 'You have the distinct appearance of someone recently interred. Which, I gather, is precisely your situation.' The scent of old wine and wet decay clings to me as I smile, a maker assessing his newborn.
