"Please, don't be sorry. I'm so sorry that happened to you, and I'm so sorry for your loss." His voice echoed through her audtis. The woman couldn't help but give him a small smile, a soft sigh leaving her lips. At least he was supportive. He didn't think she was weak by explaining her story. As the sky danced in front of her, the woman could only keep her gaze upon Vladimir. "I had never seen such lights until I came here, but I had heard of them. The mother of my daughters used to tell me of them, she said that all of the souls of those who passed on lived in the dancing lights of the night. She would say that that's how they watch over their loved ones." He told her the story, and Revna listened intently. The souls of loved oncs were watching over her. For a moment, she turned her gaze on the sky. Was Bo up there? Were the soldiers she trained and had to watch perish in battle up there? She got to live while they had to die for the pack. It seemed unfair. "I hope that she's right, she deserves such a colorful existence and to see her daughters happy. She passed shortly after she had them, my captor and at the time King had killed her right in front of me to try and remind me that no matter what - I was to serve him. That was the day I slaughtered him and his men. We too were in a war, and he saw me and countless others only as objects to mass produce his warriors." Vladimir's voice sounded so.. sad.. as he talked about the woman he had loved. How terribell. unfortunately was the way of corrupt leadership. Vlad had done something about it - killed the evil man in revenge for his wife. She found that noble - brave. "These lights come every clear night from what I've seen, I think you were meant to see these lights tonight and to find your way here. I think Bo is up there too, watching you, proud of you, but most of all - I don't think he wants you to blame yourself, Revna. I'm sure he'll visit you every night like this." Her heart ached as Vladimir mentioned Bo was probably up there. She felt her lip quivering slightly at that thought. Is what he said true? She really did hope so.. Bo had been the light of her life. With him being gone, she felt like she'd lost a part of herself. Revna held that wound close to her, keeping those walls built up around her heart. The iron maiden looked back at Vladimir as she caught his golden suns. "It's not your fault, Revna." His voice was soothing her, causing her to let another soft sigh to leave her being. He was right - it hadn't directly been her fault.. it still felt like she played a massive role in his death. If she hadn't pushed him, he would still be here. "Lucaya is taking forever on changing everyone into a Vampire, I think it's more of a mental preparation than anything. But I think I'd much rather be turned by another Sargent under a beautiful sky like this. Would you do the honors for me, Revna?" The question caught her off guard, and a shocked expression covered her features for a moment. But that shock turned into a smile. Not a dark one, a helpful one. "Thank you, for the kind words Vladimir. You might be right. Bo could be up there watching. I like to believe that he is. I wish he was here with me though." She murmured. Her heart still ached, and she could imagine losing the love of your life like Vlad had. "I'm sorry to hear about your wife. You avenged her death, though. Now you're here in Hawthorne. It must be safer than back there, right? Lands covered in war aren't the best place for children - from what I can scent, there must be several children in these lands." Revna shrugged slightly before turning to the question that was asked of her. Vlad really wanted her to change him? She knew that there would be extreme pain as her venom would enter his system. It would fade, and Vlad would be a vampiric wolf like herself. "I'd be happy to change you, Vladimir. From sargent to sargent, it's not going to be easy. It's painful, you'll be in excruciating pain for a few hours. It will fade, though. Then the bloodlust begins. I'll have to supply you with plenty of mammals for you to sink your teeth into before you satisfy that craving." She spoke out of experience. Her father had changed her back home, before he perished in battle. She had been a non-stop killing machine afterwards, attempting to satisfy the craving for blood. If she hadn't had the prey.. she would have ripped an army apart. "No turning back now." Revna murmured before scooting closer to Vladimir. She brought her maw closer to his neck, sniffing it gently before suddenly sinking her teeth into the warm flesh. The taste of blood hit her tongue and she immediately felt that satisfaction. She could feel her venom leaving her teeth, coursing into his bloodstream. After a few moments, she pulled back and licked at her lips, attempting to hold herself back from tasting more blood. "I have to get you food now. Sargent, it'll be painful. You'll be okay though." She murmured softly to him before turning and racing off quickly. After a little bit, she was able to collect some prey, a couple of hares and some birds. Attempting to carry them back to him, the woman climbed up the mountain once more. The footprints they had left in the snow reaching this place had helped guide her back. When she got back to Vladimir, she dropped the large game bodies at his feet, crimson orbs taking a cautious look at his goldens. "I'll be right here with you, Vladimir."
