Dromaeus and AEanna began to follow the others. Dromaeus glanced at AEanna as they went.
"It is dangerous for you to serve as bait, if it does come to that." he remarked.
"I am not afraid." AEanna replied determinedly.
"Perhaps not, but do not forget Regulus's power. When he comes, whatever he says to you, you must ignore it, or he will seize on your doubt and all will be lost. Everything he says is untrue, anyway." Dromaeus paused for a moment.
"I... I admit that I may know less about vampirism than I originally thought. I have travelled with you long enough, however, that I should have recognised that it has not changed you. I do not believe that you are a monster, or that you would ever purposefully harm someone who did not deserve it. Anything that Regulus says to you in relation to it is frankly laughable."
AEanna's eyes moistened, but she blinked them clear and smiled back at Dromaeus.
"Thank you."
OOC: @Gear Its the shield of Ysgramor, very thick and strong, and enchanted against magical attacks. Dromaeus has been using it since I first introduced him early in the first thread.
