All those who knew of enough of Sparta hadn't voiced their confusion, but remained seated quietly. The age of darkness had a deep split down the middle, those who saw the age as detrimental to the humans they fed on, their very specific ecosystem...and those who gave no fuc%s.
"Sparta," Beatrice smiled at the Vampire, "Is no legend. And with all the power of the Light Eaters... Failure is impossible. And I can demonstrate why."
At the word 'demonstration', a number of vampires got up from their seats, Eirham gave a piercing glare at the woman, "You do NOT have express permission for this!"

Claude, on the other hand, held his hands out..."Well, what did you expect? The dear lady expected a pureblood escorted by a half-blood or human bodyguard, not the whole sunless impure blood entourage..." Leaning back on his chair again, Eirham was just about to snap at him when--

Silvery hair jutted out messily from such a fall, his arms were still cross, and he had the blankest expression on his face...before his lips curled into a smile, and the vampire man began to chuckle at such a thing to happen to him. How disgraceful! Now actively just laughing at himself for looking like such a fool, the others snapped out of their surprised stupor and rushed to his side.

"Claudius!"
"Are you alright milord?!"
Still just chilling on the ground at his leisure, even as some gathered round, he couldn't stop the laughter. Wiping his watering eyes with the back of his hand, he let out a fond sigh, before getting up onto his feet, "I surely must be going stir-crazy..."
