Captain Lion reached into a pocket on his jacket and held a silver medallion. "Young lady, this is for you. It will protect you from any vampire should you become separated."

Serna accepted the medallion and marveled at it, "WOW! Thank you, Captain Lion! This is beautiful!" With a confused look on her face, the Shield Maiden turned towards the Airship Captain, "Wait a minute, I thought silver was supposed to ward off werewolves. Am I wrong or what?"

"Werewolves will most definitely be harmed by this medallion but it also has properties that will cause a vampire to pause long enough for you to call for help or defend yourself. Remember this, believe in yourself and the medallion will keep you safe." Captain Lion reassured her.

"Thank you again, Captain Lion," Serna replied with a smile, "Between this medallion, my shield and my friends, I KNOW I'm going to be safe!"

The airship captain looked over towards the rulers of East Port now, "With the threat of vampires in your city how will you proceed in eradicating them? Blessing and consecrating the areas down in the commons is a good start since that's where they've chosen to reveal themselves. My crew and I will be able to provide any knowledge pertaining to vampires if you so wish."

"Yeah!" Irzen perked up, "That's a good question, Captain Lion. What are your plans to deal with the Vampires, Birch, Elven Prince?"

"My good sir," Prince Birch grinned, "We're not just going to bless and consecratre the areas down in the commons. We are going to bless and consecrate the entire city of East Port! There are many clerics from many different religions and faiths in our land. So, we are going to designate specific areas of the city where certain temples are located for a blessing and a consecration. We are futher going to allow the clerics in those temples to bless and consecrate every shoppe, every stall, every alley and every house within their designated area. With each cleric from each faith blessing and consecrating each designated area of East Port, we shall drive the Vampires into the underground areas of the city."

The airship captain straightened his tie abruptly before he addressed the prince, "Blessing and consecrating every building here in the city proper will only drive them out temporally. I've seen it before and not all vampires have the same origins, Prince Birch. Well most can be killed by a wooden or silver stake through the heart, some aren't afraid of crossing over holy ground."

"And it will be at that point that we will unleash the vampire hunters upon them." Princess Cauladra added, "We have sent for professional vampire hunters from across the Realm. Battle-hardened slayers who specialize in the art of killing the undead. They will traverse the tunnels and dark places of East Port, root out this vampiric vermin that threaten our people and annihilate them within a fortnight."

"Calling for every vampire hunter/slayer in the realm may not be such a good idea either. We don't need to attract Venger here that is unless you want to deal with the Force of Evil your highness." Sir Gonagle adjusted his goggles.

"However, we will more than welcome any and all aid that you can offer, Captain Lion," Prince Birch concluded, "You and your crew have ever been our friend and we appreciate both your friendship and assistance."

"Of course, you should be focusing on finding out where the master vampire or vampire's nest is. The sooner, the better." He concluded.

"Or you could just," Another female voice came into the room behind them dressed in steampunk attire. She winked at Serna and gave her a thumbs up. "Find the thralls like the one I just dragged into the dungeon."

Quake gave the prince and princess a formal bow where she stood.
