"- Hey, I know I'm a bit scary, but don't be afraid, I'm friend.
- Who the fuck are you? what ARE you to begin with? this ruin was supposed to be deserted!
- Be not afraid,do you want bread little mortal?you mortals love bread right?
- I'm not eating bread from a weird stranger I find in the forest!I'm not a mutt!
- Oh yes I did not introduce myself, I'm Danadriel Montresor...and who are you little interloper?
- I-I'm Edmond, just Edmond...but most people call me Coyote...
- Coyote, a very fitting nickname for a little thief.
- What! how the fuck you know I'm a thief!?
- After living for several millennia you start to pay attention to details, like your hands and feet wrapped in linen to avoid cuts from climbing, your furtive posture, or the random bag of silver and gold utensils you are carrying in the middle of a forest during the night...
- Ok madam you got me red handed, yes I'm a filthy thief, and I was planning to hide here because I'm fucked!
- Oh, what kind of pickle did you got involved mister Coyote?
- Why should I tell you!?
- Why not? do I look like someone who just gonna go and report you to the local authorities? we are both strangers hiding in a ruined castle for our own motives...we can help each other.
- I doubt you can help me, I'm being hunted a baron and his knights!
- Men covered in steel, men covered in cloth, makes no difference for me, my fangs tear them equally.
- You're a vampire aren't you?
- Precisely mister Coyote, I see you too pay attention to the details
- So this is it? I stepped into a vampire lair and now I gonna die?
- No, I'm well fed and I'm not interested in blood right now...I'm looking for a partnership.
- What kind of partnership a ancient vampire could possibly need?
- I need someone to watch me as I sleep during the day...and also would not hurt to have someone to help me clean and repair this place...this castle is a dump right now.
- So essentially you need a roommate?
- well yes, I can provide you with food and other supplies, I just need your cooperation.
- Are you gonna trust me blindly like that?
- Even if you could kill me, you would gain no reward, and for me to just feed on you and kill you would be equally non rewarding, you want to hide in this old castle, I want to hide in this old castle, the universe itself is conspiring for us to team up.
- Yes that sounds reasonable, however i'm still terrified of you...being completely honest.
- As you should, you are face to face with an apex predator, In my long life I killed more people than you can even count, you are for me what a rat is to a tiger...you are no more than a forgetable morsel to me, to have a friendly conversation with me is the greastest privilege you ever gonna experience in your entire meager life...and dont forget it.
- Ok I get it, you are full of yourself, queen of the night, I will help you here in exchange for some food and shelter, but I will keep you at arm's length ok?
- Most excellent mister Coyote...now come in,make yourself comfortable, sit by the fire, the cold wind outside is cutting like razors...
- Thanks, I was already not feeling my toes anymore...can I have that bread you were offering?
- Yes you can...oh this is the experience of feeding a mortal?...hahaha how curious, I think I will have some fun with this partnership..."
