Back in the land of the living.
Corbin arrived at the family home.
He was informed by the servant that her mother already performed the ritual.
"Where is my brother Nathan?" Corbin asked.
"He's frequently staying in the ritual room, my lord," the servant replied.
"Okay. I'm thirsty, give me something to drink and bring it to my room upstair," Corbin said.
"Aye, my lord! What do you want to drink? Human blood or water?" the servant asked.
"Anything, just not blood," Corbin said and went upstairs to the second floor.
In his room.
He removed his black cape and hat and put them on the table. He discarded his clothes and went to the bathroom.
A few minutes later, he exited the bathroom and went to the window. Looking at the view of the garden below, thinking about his wife Rebecca while staring at the blooming flowers.
There was a knock on the door. "My lord, the drink is here!" the servant said.
Corbin opened the door, took the tray, and put it on the table.
