SECRETS IN THE SHADOWS

Drusilla had left the castle before Nikolas, Talon, and Ambrosia arrive at the castle. She has some force taking her to the valley, where she had been before. While Drusilla is the vampire she flies to the valley, not knowing why she is going there or what is there for her, all she knows is that a force is summoning her there. 


When she lands on top of a hill leading down into the valley, she stands there for a moment and begins to feel more power run through her body. She then walks down the hill to the bottom and walks near a hidden tombstone, the only one that is in the valley. Drusilla stops in front of it, she reads.


Drusilla has no idea why this tombstone is the only one there or who this Bela is, so she starts wandering around aimlessly through the valley.
