Meanwhile, back at the Sheershider Castle, Prince Kennith Sheershider was receiving word of the dead bodies that were found in various houses around town.

“All of them were entirely drained of their blood and had two holes in their neck!” the informer, Arne Faucheux, exclaimed.

Kennith Sheershider stared on sadly, unsure of what to do.

“My father wouldn’t like this...” he whispered.

“The townsfolk are afraid for their lives, your majesty!” Arne shouted.

“As they should be... I’m afraid for their lives. And, unfortunately, I know how this happened...” Kennith said.

“You do?!” Arne asked.

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

“Yes, yes I do... And now I’m also even more concerned with finding that lady...” Kennith said.

“NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR DATING!” Arne screeched.

“No, this is not for dating purposes... I hate to say it, but I’m going to need a team,” Kennith said.

“A team?” Arne asked.

“Yes, a search team... I’m going to need some people to go out and search for someone in particular...” Kennith said.

“Hmmm... Maybe I can be of some use... Describe the person in question for me and I’ll make you a search team!” Arne said.

“Well, she’s sort of tall and thin... She’s got pale skin, black hair, and brown eyes. Well, she HAD brown eyes, they’re red now,” Kennith said.

Arne Faucheux grinned.

“Alright... Sounds easy enough...” Arne said.

“Thank you. Once your men discover her whereabouts, have them report to me,” Kennith said, “As you already know, my father is away on a business meeting in another kingdom. All affairs of Sheershider are my business until he returns.”

“Yes, your majesty...” Arne said, heading towards the door.

Arne Faucheux stopped at the doorway and turned his head to look at the prince once more.

“Soon, you will not need to worry about the girl anymore,” he said, smirking.

Kennith Sheershider smiled back gently, unaware of the intentions of the informer.
