Koli saw Gavner narrow his eyes at the ring on the night stand, and he knew that Gavner knew what he had to do. Taking a deep breath, the vampire began to creep across the wooden floor towards the night stand. As he tiptoed, Koli noticed that the room was in absolute pristine condition. There was absolutely no dust, and all the furniture and aspects of the world were here perfectly upkept. There was no dust at all, the curtains were brilliant and radient, as the colors were not faded, and none of the floor boards squeaked at all. When GAvner reached the night stand, Koli looked at the enormous man of a chancellor in front of him. How could somebody get to this point? He supposed that all aspects of self-value changed once somebody was put into a position of power. The vampire was now upon the night stand, and the ring was perfectly stored in an open ring box. It appeared nearly as a class ring, with a thick golden neck and a large beautiful emerald green gem encrusted deeply in the gold. The inscription read “Chancellor” in bold, robust letters.

Ganver looked from Koli and Mavrik, to the chancellor, and back to the ring. He shook his head and Koli saw him mouth the words “Well, here goes nothing.”

The vampire reached for the ring, but just as he did, the emerald green gem lit up, sending a flash of green light into the room. Suddenly a clear, shield like orb roughly seven feet tall and around appeared, engulfing Gavner, before a large explosion of outward force with a flash of light appeared, and Gavner was thrown through the wall of the mansion, and out of the second story of the building. Without thinking, Koli ran to the night stand, closed the ring box, picked it up and leapt out of the hole in the wall. In one swift motion, Koli stowed the ring in his cloak and leaned forward, breaking the fall, touching the ground with his hands and pushing himself directly into a roll, breaking his fall and landing on his feet. The priest rushed over to his friend who was stirring on the ground, grabbing his left shoulder. Koli heard the soft crunch of rocks next to him and looked over to see that Mavrik had landed in a crouching position.

“Let’s go now!”
