❝You should know by now, Topolino, that I am not afraid of the dark.❞ He spoke lowly, accent remaining thick for the time being as he stomped one foot and the doors slammed closed, the candles lighting once again but with a blood red hue.

❝Because they’re mainly in upper chambers away from me and all the other things that go on around here.❞ A soft chuckle left his lips. He loved teasing Valak at times. ❝I suppose I act like a boring guardian to you, eh?❞

Salvatore wasn’t met by much in the way of affection, but, kids did not fear him as much as the adults of the nearby village, he oddly didn’t have the heart to scare children, Oh a soft spot, but Valak wasn’t a kid, ❝Oh come now, Bambino. Why must you pout like that?❞

Pops his gum.
