You...? You've seen a pureblood?

 

 

I sincerely doubt that.

 

 

 

 

 

Not just seen.

 

 

I've killed one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What?

Does it intimidate you that I've killed someone as powerful as you?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Keep dreaming furball.

 

 

If you've actually killed a pureblood,

 

 

 

 

...then you'd know what the vampire form looks like.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A beast with black skin... 

 

 

!

 

How did you...

 

 

How did you know?!?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Sigh*

 

 

Because...

 

Anya was there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still remember that cold summer night...

 

 

It was two years ago,
I had received word from an old acquaintance that vampires would attack a small farming settlement North of Rorikstead.

 

 

By the time I arrived, I was too late.

 

 

Their leader must have thought me an easy target.

 

 

I dueled him as the other vampires fled.

 

 

 

 

 

But randomly attacking a town?

 

 

Purebloods have been granted vampirism directly from Molag Bal,

we would never act that recklessly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Come to think of it,
The Court used to have another pureblood before I was sealed.

 

 

I assumed he was killed by another vampire, but what if... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Isran, when you killed this vampire... what did he look like.

 

 

 

 

 

He transformed back into a human.

 

 

I don't remember his race.

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Just that he had thick red hair.

 

 

Lokil!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know what that son-of-a-bitch was up to...

 

 

...but he was definitely from the Volkihar Clan.

 

 

...

 

 

 

(Two years ago)

 

 

 

 

 

*Slam*

 

 

A vampire hunter?

 

 

 

 

You must have heard about the attack!

 

 

We just sent a patrol to deal with them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you hurry, you can still catch up to them.

 

 

That won't be necessary.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've already taken care of it.

 

 

We've searched the whole damn province, sir.

 

 

It's almost daybreak and there's no sign of any vampires.

 

 

 

 

So, the rest of em' got away...

 

 

A whole town gets massacred, and we don't even know why!

 

 

Not even one survivor...

 

 

 

 

Actually, sir. There's something you should see.

 

The girl ran all the way to the western watchtower. 

 

 

She's the one that warned the guards of the attack.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...

 

 

You must be Anya.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do you know why the vampires attacked your town? 

 

 

 

 

*Sniff*

No... I don't know...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Exhale*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sorry about what happened. 

 

 

That pain of losing everything. It's something no one should have to experience.

 

 

 

 

Did this happen to you too?

 

 

 

 

Yes, it has.

 

 

Just know that things will get better with time...

 

 

 

 

You're going to have a great life here in Whiterun.

 

 

Someday you will find new people to call family.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I promise...
 

 

I will never stop hunting these monsters until they've paid for their sins.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just... wish I could have gotten there in time.

 

 

 

 

...

 

 

Wait!

 

 

I want to go with you!

 

 

I want to help The Dawnguard!

 

 

I can't fight but I'm sure I can be useful somehow...

 

 

Please...

 

I wasn't the only survivor from that night.

 

 

 

 

 

There was another...

 

 

 

Failure?

 

 

 

 

!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh fuck...

 

 

 

 

 

Luna's failure at capturing the scroll will be costly.

 

 

Were you able to confirm my suspicions?

 

 

 

...

 

 

*Scoff*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm afraid it is true, My Lord...

 

 

The Dawnguard are certainly not powerful enough to kill Luna on their own...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Serana has betrayed us.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Morph*

 

 

That damn ungrateful girl!

 

 

 

 

 

 

How dare she!

 

 

!!!

 

 

What is that?

 

 

Hmph.

 

First time seeing the vampire lord form?

 

 

Terrifying... Isn't it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ROOOOAAAAAAR!!!

 

 

 

 

*Sip*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Grrrrr*

 

 

 

 

Serana...

 

 

 

It is just as I feared.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let me make this clear:

 

 

The girl is not to be harmed.

 

 

 

 

Leave her punishment to me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

!?

 

 

If anyone else wishes to defy me...

 

 

There will be...

 

 

Consequences!

 

 

 

 

 

*Slash*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Thud*

 

 

!!!

 

 

 

 

*Step*
