Lilith: “…and this one will be your room. I’m sorry the furniture is so dated.”

Jaina: “Oh, no problem. This is great! Anything is better than that musty dungeon.”

Lilith: “So you’re still unchanged, huh?”

Jaina: “Unchanged? I’m sorry, I don’t get it.”

Lilith: “Oh, you’re in for a wild ride, fledgling!”

Jaina: “Oh yeah, your brother mentioned fledglings when I got here. I wasn’t sure what he was talking about.”

Lilith: “You’ll understand soon enough.”

Caleb: “Oh, hey! You must be our new roommate!”

Jaina: “Um, yeah. Hi.”

Caleb: “I’m sorry that you have to room with my sister and I. We’ve been here for a few years and we should be considered master vampires by now, but we’re still considered fledglings according to that miserable old bat.”

Jaina: “You mean Celeste?”

Caleb: “Yes, of course, her. Anyways, please come in and see your new home. My sister is practically dying to meet you.”

Celeste: “Ah, there you are! I’ve been looking all over for you, dear girl. You’re being reassigned to Wolfsbane Manor. I don’t have time to arrange an escort, so you’ll have to make your way on your own. If you follow the street down to the park and make a right at the intersection, it will be the first house you come across. I’ll still be watching you from afar, so don’t try any funny business.”

Jaina: “Um, okay…”

Celeste: “Oh good, you’re finally up. You found the clothes I left you, I see.”

Jaina: “Um, yeah. Thanks.”

Celeste: “Have a seat, please. We have a lot to talk about… Now, you’re going to begin to feel queasy in a few days. You’re going to go through some changes while you turn. It’s quite a slow, drawn-out process. You’re going to go shift through several different moods as well. It looks as though you already figured out that part, though. You are strangely perky this morning.”

Jaina: “Yep! I went to bed with a soul-crushing depression and woke up feeling fresh as a daisy. I’m still upset, yet I’m smiling happily.”

Celeste: “Yes, it’s quite refreshing. I’m glad your mournful face will stop depressing my son.”
