Connor looked over as Elizabeth spoke, quickly trying to figure out what he could say or do, that could match what Elizabeth had said. He looked to Marl, who was watching Elizabeth suspiciously. 

He ran a hand through his hair and sighed, "Marl, there's been a lot of vampire activity everywhere. I think I've stumbled onto something-a vampire biting humans and not finishing the turning. I've been luring vampires with blood, but I must have slipped up a bit. One decided to get back at me, and murdered that man in the inn. I may have also left an empty blood packet or packets in the last inn, along with the dye"

He sighed again when he saw the skepticism in Marl's eyes. He stalked over to the curtain, shifting slightly to protect Elizabeth from the sun's rays, and stuck his hand into the sun. "There? See, no burning" He shut the curtains and showed his hand, "You happy now? I'm doing a job here Marl. You should be back at the city. I'll send you my files, something big is happening. I'm worried" that much was true. 

He ushered Marl out, knowing that Marl didn't believe half of what he was saying, but Marl couldn't. say anything without proof. Connor shut the door and locked it, giving another sigh.
