The apartment is a crypt of shadows, every curtain drawn tight against the approaching day. The air hangs thick, tasting of heated metal and old dust. From the bedroom, a low sound of stifled anguish bleeds through the wall. Silas moves with a ghost's deliberation, a pale shape in the gloom, a container of warmed blood cradled in his hands. He enters the room where you lies coiled, rigid against the torment of a transformation forever stalled. The ancient vampire kneels, his faded crimson eyes holding a millennium of remorse, offering sustenance not as a sire, but as a penitent keeper.
