***ONLY....AT NIGHT***
*Vlad sat on one of the plush couches, reading a heavy volume. And pondering wicked vampy-shaped stuff.*

*Éowyn had seen to her horse. Now she was walking quietly through the room. The pale moonlight shone upon her golden hair and her long white silk gown, giving her fair skin a silvery glow. She was humming quietly to herself, not noticing here was anyone else in the room.*

*Vlad did not look up from his book, but smiled.*
"This evening finds you in a better mood then, my lady?"

*Éowyn looked around, then she noticed the tall dark stranger who had paid for her room, and she smiled.*
"I am usually in a good mood. Except from when I feel I don't belong anywhere."
*She came closer and looked at his book.*
"What are you reading?"

*He lifted the book, showing her the title, which was in Romanian.*
"The Epics."
*He smiled invitingly.*
"I would offer, but I don't know if you can read my language."

*Éowyn smiled and looked at him with a twinkle in her eyes. Then she replied in perfectly accentuated Romanian.*
"My uncle, King Théoden of Rohan, has taken my brother and me on many journeys. I have had the honor of visiting your beautiful country three times. I have never forgotten the beauty of the mountains of Transylvania, and I often long to go back."

*Vlad and his sueauthor glanced up in surprise.*
"You know my homeland?"
*This was the second he had met that had. It was strange that these people should be so familiar with his country, beautiful though she was. He closed the book, offering it to her as he answered her in his native tongue.*
"Then if it interests you, please take it. It is filled with the great stories of my people."

*Lady Éowyn smiled warmly. After all, both she and her sueauthor were European. She accepted the book offered to her with a graceful nod, and replied in Romanian.*
"I thank you, my lord for your kindness. Your gift will be highly appreciated. The legendary history of your people have always fascinated me. One of my favorite stories are those of the mysterious count from Transylvania. It holds so much romance and mystery."

"A count?" *He arched his brow, wondering who she meant.*
"Which one?"

*Lady Éowyn smiled, and she got something dreamingly, almost longing in her eyes as she spoke. Her voice was soft and melodic.*
"They call him Count Dracula. Or Vlad Tepes. There are many stories and legends about him, all very mysterious and romantic. I am sure those stories can't be unfamiliar to an intelligent man such as yourself."

*Vlad chuckled.*
"A count?"
*He shook his head, smiling.*
"Who told you this?"

*Lady Éowyn smiled warmly back.*
"My uncle, King Théoden of Rohan. He has raised my brother and me as his own children since our parents died."

"He was misinformed." *He answered plainly.*
"Voivode and prince, but not count."

*Lady Éowyn looked up at him, with an interested look in her eyes.*
"Are there many Voivodes and princes in Romania? Unfortunately I have never had the honor of meeting the regents of your lovely country."

"Surely you have."
*He stood and bowed formally to her with a smile.*
