To those who are seeing me for the first time, my name is Vlad III Tepes, lord of Castlevania in Everglade. I come to you with a message for the residents of Everglade. Congratulations on surviving the rule of the buffoon tyrant. For too long the residents of this city have been misunderstood, their wishes ignored, and the laws of an ignorant, close-minded fool have been imposed on them.

I have seen first hand the issues this idiot's policies have inflicted on the populous. Refugees seeking asylum in Castlevania from the tyrant and his policies has never been higher than in the time since the ban on necromancy was put into law. Even when the people opposed this move, the tyrant fool remained steadfast in his ignorance.

So people of Everglade, I urge you, rise up against this fool, cast him down and select a more worthy leader. I have lived among you for quite some time now, and am one of you. I am no stranger to the dark arts and I am myself open about my status as one of the undead. It is time Everglade's will be returned to its people, not closed-minded bigots that refuse to understand.

I am glad. I don't see why necromancy should be banned either. I'll admit that I don't know much about it, but do I understand correctly that it's just a form of magic? Is it any more dangerous than any other form?

Necromancy plain and simple, is a tool. It cannot do anything without intent, and can be misused just as easily as one could use a hammer to attack another. However, banning hammers from store shelves seems a little ignorant, just as this ban does.

Well, if that's all it is...

[That was a pretty bare-bones answer that was just enough to make the point. There has to be more to it, so Azalea concludes that she'll just have to research it herself to learn more.]

I don't know what's happened between the two of you in the past, but if nothing else, I can assure you that he's not getting my vote.

I appreciate your support, my friend.

[The little dragon couldn't quite bring herself to tell him that she's actually voting for Fai...but perhaps one less vote for Ted would be supportive enough for Dracula as well.]

Oh...my name is Azalea. Good luck.

[Because she certainly didn't consider him a friend.]
