Kaveh returned to the Falcron Blacksmith. He told Ember and Jensen about what had happened1, and about the gala2. Then, they spoke about Father Bernard. Jensen believed his sire was involved somehow in what had happened at the gala.
“So I wasn’t telling you the whole truth about my sire. He didn’t abandon me.” “I forced him to leave.” “He had embraced me without my consent in hopes that he could recruit me for his cause.” He closes his eyes and shudders as he relives that horrible incident. “He…talked of his struggle with his vampiric nature, same as I. That one day, he came to view his curse as a divine blessing instead.” His voice is starting to get shaky. “He referred to me as a disciple, to bring about a new age for humanity, using vampirism as the engine for his machinations.” “He is a dangerous man. I can sense it.” “We…we have to stop him.” “I don’t know what exactly he is doing, but he needs to be stopped.” “And all of these big things going on, I fear may be what he wants, as a small step towards his plan.”
Jensen asked Kaveh warn the others about Bernard, and he promised he would.
