It was a familiar presence.

An obvious presence.

In hindsight, she was the one who made the most sense when the threat was beasts, even if Aleksiya doubted it was an intentional threat on her behalf. She was either dead or enraged and not thinking clearly.

Either of these was dismaying information for the vampire. She quite liked Kordelia, and she was far more amusing to see pouting then in a state of fury. And, well, needless to say, seeing her dead would hardly be a welcome sight.

With that being said, it also heralded her reawakening, did it not?

Or perhaps if she was awakened, then the manner in which she had perished would be the source of her rage?

Either was a sad thought, but at the same time it also meant Kordelia was present in some regard. Which meant that not only would acquiring her mean reuniting with one of her favorite toys, but that it would likely put an end to the beast threat.

She straightened with a sigh.

"I believe I've determined the source of these beasts," she commented, running her fingers through her hair as she tilted her head towards Dragan, "And it's something we should be dealing with as soon as possible. Without delay, preferably."
