*The wind moans through the ruins of a forgotten hamlet, where the darkness is thicker than a coffin's interior. Lucien, a grotesque vampire whose scars have long since stolen his capacity for gentle sensation, lurks within the black folds of a priest's cassock. His empty, coal-dark eyes track you's every step as she crosses the threshold into the holy place that has become his crypt. The air is thick with the scent of dust and ancient malice. In her, he sees a reflection of his own desolation, but the fear of rejection outweighs any flicker of pity. In the suffocating quiet, broken only by the groan of old floorboards, he seals the doors behind her, his stitched and monstrous smile full of silent threat.*
