Annotation

Erkial is not quite human. Or rather, not really human at all. She belongs to the ancient winged vampire race of the Lamashtu. Noedes Bel is a skald famous throughout the Gallo-Roman Empire of the 27th century, but all Erkial needs from him is his blood and his genes. And surely it shouldn't bother her that a member of the inferior human race will die in the process of extracting the necessary material. But as for him, how does he feel about it?
