The reasons for the Count luring our blue-blooded family to his
castle are that he wants to resurrect the ancient vampire lord Malachi,
who has been fettered to a tomb within the main castle for hundreds of years.
The tomb was constructed to refrain the lord from returning from the
dead and it is sealed shut with a magical ward, breakable only by a soul
sacrifice in the first rays of the morning sun.
The Count is resurrecting Lord Malachi and has prepared a summoning
ritual aimed at Malachi in his grave, whose strength is greatened
for every sacrifice made!
Me and Father Aville have a Holy Chalice in our trunk at the Main Entrance.
Take me there and I'll give it to you! It is a powerful weapon.
