Stelian studied the ruins of the small settlement. It was terrible. Whatever had attacked hadn't held back in the least. The houses were destroyed, and everyone he could see was dead. "What could have done this?" he asked no one in particular.
He was on his way home after an expedition. It would still take him a few nights to get to the tunnels, and to be honest, he had thought about ditching the vampires multiple times. Unlike them, he didn't need to hide from the sun or sleep the entire period the sun was up, and he could go days without getting a wink of sleep. In less than a day, he would be in the tunnels, but unfortunately, because of the vampires he was with, it would take two nights. But he couldn't abandon them; he was in charge of them, and even if the journey took ten nights, he would stay with them the entire time.
