Chapter 244: Cobalt Unit

 "Hey Xula, care to tell what happened earlier, you seemed a bit out of it when that vampire girl showed up," backpack filled with books and a few potions, Staxius got ready to head-out. Time was around one in the afternoon, Lizzie needed to be picked up from school. 

 "Wise as you are perceptive," she sighed, "-Serene was exiled from her clan. I'm sure the old sage will give more details tomorrow. She's very enigmatic, I can never get a hold of what she thinks. Despite reading her mind, it's always a jumbled mess of thought, actions, and possible outcomes. The one thing that remains common is… her vindictive nature. Once upon a time, my guards had a sixth member. Sadly, that man-made the mistake of calling out Serene and insulting her in the process. It took months, after he went into hiding, months after months till the body was found bordering a river not so far from here. I knew it was her, the bite marks on his neck that resembled two stars, no other vamp has it."
