The elders were the first to hear of Valery's arrival, the arrival of a nobleman was both good news and bad news for them. Not to mention the small detail mentioned by the gentleman who informed them.
The elders gathered in one of their mansions, upon being informed quickly gathered to discuss what they would do next. Silence flooded the room each in their own thoughts.
"He wants to take us away," said one of the elders breaking the silence in the room.
"He wants to take us away from our home, we can't allow it we were born and raised here. If he wants to take us it will be over my dead body"
"Calm down, calm down I think rather than getting upset we should see this as an opportunity. It really is impossible for us to stay here, without a noble to transmit the letters to the human farms we will never be able to resupply us with blood. By our reckoning we have enough blood for 1 year" he spoke serenely to the other two elderly vampires.
