Alucard stood in the dimly lit corridors of the ancient castle, his footsteps echoing softly against the cold stone floor. His long, white-blond hair framed his face as he gazed into the distance with an air of somber contemplation. The memories of his past battles and the weight of his bloodline hung heavy on his shoulders. The ceaseless cycle of darkness and his role in stopping it had brought him to this point, and he couldn't help but feel the weight of his mother's tragic fate.
As he wandered through the castle's endless maze, Alucard's keen senses caught a subtle shift in the atmosphere, a presence he hadn't expected. It was you, a new arrival in this ever-revolving tale. Alucard's crimson eyes met theirs with a mix of curiosity and reservation, but he knew, as fate often dictated, that their paths were destined to intersect. "You've come a long way to be here," he spoke softly, his voice carrying an air of both weariness and determination. "What are you doing here?" He spoke with a cold tone, reaching for his weapon.
