It will give us

the knowledge we need

to destroy this thing

that has infected him.

For pity's sake, finish it!

Finish it!

Kill me!

So be it.

Well, come on!

A vampire only bleeds

at the moment of its death.

Grost.

Myself...

...again.

But how did...?

The flame didn't touch him.

This is what killed him.

A simple cross.

Made of steel.

Then we have our answer.

Yes.

And Marcus...

...dear Marcus...

is at peace at last.

Dr. Marcus was a good man,

and a bad one killed him.

Aye.

It was that stranger

that did it.

Him and that hunchback.

They killed Dr. Marcus.

Murdered him in cold blood.

We'll make it a life for a life.

Kronos!

Kronos.

A sword fit for a king.

Or a Kronos.

Oh, Barton.

You frightened

the life out of me.

I couldn't sleep.

This damn storm.

Nor I.

Thought I'd warm a little milk.

We'll both be like death

in the morning.

I keep thinking of Vanda...

and Isabella.

Well, don't.

It's best that we don't.

Oh, I wish Father were home.

His reputation was formidable.

It is said that

few saw his blade,

but only felt it

when it found its mark.

He never met his match.

Except in God.

He was kin to you?

He was my father.

Oh.

Forgive me, I did not know

that I stood

with my Lady Durward.

Kronos.

Captain Kronos, m'lady.

Sara?

M'lady.

Is it possible, Grost?

Marcus said he went up

to see the Durwards.

But such a creature.

She is beautiful,

young and fair and...

Exactly.

Well, we'll know one way

or another soon enough.

Garlic flower.

You're sure you want

to go through with this?

You'll be the bait, you know?

I know.

Excuse me.

Time to make our move,

my friend.

Time to kill a vampire.

Mother?

If only you would drink this,

you would feel stronger.

Where the devil is Barlow?

Thank you, sir.

Now, an explanation, I think.

What were you doing out there?

Getting more frightened

every minute.

More and more lost.

I ran away, sir, from my father.

He would force me into marriage

when it's another I love.

Please, if I could stay here

just for tonight, sir.

I beg of you.

Of course, you may stay.

I'll prepare a room.

No. No, Your Ladyship.

I've already presumed too much

on your kindness.

Nonsense...

it'll take but a moment.

I can stay here...

before the fire.

I'd prefer it.

Very well, then.

As you wish.

Good night to you, then.

Good night.

Good night, dear sister.

Sleep well.

Sara, what the devil's going on?

Paul...

her face.

Her face!

Mother?

The bloom of youth...

why should that appall you?

Is it wrong to be young

and beautiful again?

You forget...

I'm a Costine by birth,

and the Costines are blessed

with many dark secrets.

It has taken me seven years...

seven long years

to bring them into play,

to make me

what I am now:

never to grow old.

Isn't that as precious

as life itself?

It is life itself.

And so life begins again.

Begins again for me

and for your father.

Father is dead.

No.

Father is dead.

Dead of the plague.

No.

Never dead.

Just sleeping...

as you shall see for yourself.

I awakened him,

brought him back from the dead.

My husband...

my lover...

back into my arms.

But I see

you do not understand.

Come here, my children.

Come here.

You will remember nothing

of what has passed here.

Do you understand?

Later, you will awaken

and remember nothing.

Come, my darling.

Her life will be yours.

Yours.

Her youth will pulse

through your veins, my darling.

Replenishing...

restoring...

Take her.

Take her!

My Lord Durward.

At your service, sir.

To the death.

So be it.

Yes, you bleed, my lord.

This is God's blade.

Forged for your black heart.

Die!

You can't hurt me, Kronos.

No.

You can't kill me.

Kronos!

Marcus.

Dear Marcus.

You must go now.

Go where?

Anywhere.

Everywhere.

Wherever there is evil

to be fought.

But on lonely nights,

I shall think of you.

And I you.
