I had not anticipated the close connection between Gislain and one of the heroes. One by one, the nobles followed Gislain's lead, contributing their blood to the swirling crimson vortex, my turn finally arrived. Hero Adelaine spared me a brief glance as I stepped forward, taking the dagger and making a clean incision on my finger. I must admit, I felt a twinge of unease as I watched my blood, a deep crimson hue, join the collective. You see, my blood was not entirely human - it carried the taint of demonic essence.
