[When the feed clicks on, it does so mid-bounce as if the device had been tossed aside with little in the way of regard for what happened to it. Those watching it was spared most of the camera shaking if only because the room in which the broadcast originates is pitch black save for three points of illumination. The first two show the shadow-cloaked face of Vlad as his eyes appear to burn with a hellish flame. The third seems to be a small crimson stone, glowing in the darkness, pulsing softly almost as if mimicking a heart beat. When Vlad speaks, his voice is restrained, but the fury is more than evident.]

I have spent quite some time in this place, and during that time I have learned quite a bit of the nature of the realm. Those of us chosen to be ripped from our own worlds seem to have been plucked from them to serve as protectors of the realm, to keep the barriers around the cities in place so that what lies beyond at bay.

It is because of this that I was willing to accept the peace offering that was returning my wife to my side. However, she is no longer here. Sent back to the fate that awaited her in our world; to be tortured and burnt at the stake for the crime of showing compassion. What this realm seems to have forgotten is that I am not as forgiving as Lisa.

[Still positively steaming after that rude encounter, Regis pauses in his wrath once he hears the cute little chirps. He glances down quickly and spots the little cherub peering up at him. As soon as she hugs him, his heart melts and his anger eases into nothingness.

A sense of calm washes over him as he puts the phone away.]

Little angel. [Regis sighs softly as he leans down to pick her up.] Have I disturbed your rest, Leanne? If so, I humbly apologize.

[He holds her safely within his arms and kisses her forehead.]

I vow not to let that dishonorable ruin our day.

[She hardly weighed anything as Regis picks her up abd holds her. She goes to shake her head.]

No you didn't. The mean one did though.

[She still wants to go and hug him. She giggles as she recieved the kiss on her forehead and moves in to kiss his cheek.]

Want me to put a spider down his back?

[Cause she will. She has connections, especially with spiders.]
