Alcaeus almost leapt from his stool at the sound of the vulture's skeletal wings flapping past him. A letter fluttered down slowly, a strange spectacle for any watching. It fluttered until it reached his lap at which point he decided that the spectacle was over and it was time to get down to actually reading the letter. He saw that Cain had received one as well and waved it at him with a smile, happy that he wasn't the only one to receive an ominous message. Opening the message wiped the pearly white smile from his face almost immediately, turning it into more of a worried frown. He looked back at Cain again, holding it up at him as if to say 'what the fuck is this?'

Sport of blood, flesh of humans, sensed your thirst, poor uneventful life? None of this made sense to him. He hadn't engaged in a manhunt for decades, maybe even a few centuries. Not an organised one anyway, not since the days of Alcibiades or Darius III. Or Hannibal Barca. Maybe he HAD been involved in a few too many of these, but what would one more hurt, right? Still, he wondered, were there criminals afoot? Was this some sort of supernatural team of crime-fighters that this Lord was putting together? Was this going to end up being a Super Sentai kind of thing, where he'd have to wear a tight costume and strike poses?

He would just have to go along to see what he could do, he guessed. Though he was still rather confused, at least there was one thing he understood. 

That Snazzy really was a dipshit.
