Darius' heart sank with every accusation Thanatos made. Back then, his plans had involved using the hands of others to smoothen his path, since he had predicted things to turn bloody.
Now that things had ended on a less violent note, he was held responsible for the offenses he made up till now. As such, Darius quickly smiled and inquired.
"My Lord, all you claim is true and I'm prepared to bear full responsibility. How may I grant redress for my crimes?"
Thanatos seemed pleased that Darius didn't try to beat around the bush. "Since you are being this honest, I will not be too harsh. I will take away your two Vampire servants for a period of indentured servitude lasting 10 years. I have some use for them and given their capabilities they can make up 50% of the losses of Adept undead."
