*A strange figure stalked through the deserted hallways of the castle. His arms and legs are strangely elongated, as though they bare more the the usual number of joints. from beneath lank blonde hair, his pale blue eyes search the hallways, looking for something that will never be found*

"lucindia! my love! where are you? come back lucindia i need you"

*he dreams of the past, paying no attention to the world around him. not to the tatters that were once finely stitched garments, his cloak long gone and his trousers and long-shirt more holes then cloth*

"you turn away
when i look at you
do you really care
weather i am there

you closed your heart
and turned to stone
why wont you smile
and laugh again..."


* these words are a silent homage to a lost love, with each word his voice becomes both fierce and quite, until he is silent. then his elengate mody colapse, falling to the floor with no regard for injury*

lucindia.... my love..."

*red stained tears slide down his cheeks, his body shakes with sadness. Unaware of the sobbing figure a lone maid rushes silenly through the halls on a night time erand errand. as she rushes past the the shadow cloaked man his and reaches out and clasps her wrist"

"wait... lucindia, dont go..."

"sir, my name isn't lucindia..."

*the maid tries to step away from the emanciated skeleton of a man as he rises to his feet*

"your back my love, i know you would return"

"sir, your mistaken I've never met you before"

"shhh... lucindia, I'm, here theres no need to be frightened anymore"

*the maid tries to step away, but he already has his arms around her, not tight, but none the less inescapable*

"...fpr you, all of it, alll for you"
*some thing... flickered, but now it all seemed more real, there was now monsterious skeletal figure, just this hansome boy, fine cheek bones and clear blue eys framed by golden locks, his smooth mouth leaning towards her neck*

"my lord... I"

*pain, a tiny prin prick at her neck, but it only served to make everything elso so much more intense.she could feel the blood rushing through her body, feel his hands running along her sides. she wanted him, all of him. beneath her hands she could feel his warm body, the firm muscels of his chest and back, his strong arms lifting her off the floor*

"not long now my love, its almost over..."

*He, HE was all there was for her he bloof pumping through hr veins all for Him. but then... it slowed. her eyes clouded and the worlds stopped it was dark*

"NO!!! NOT AGAIN!!! you are not lucindia, where is she?!? why am i always damned to this!"

*the lean monster, the mad malkavian let thew body drop and continued on his walk, all his past forgotten once more. he twirled ocasionaly, muttering and jibbering to himself. once he even did a cartwheel8
