IV | VIDEO

[ a deep rumble of a snarl opens this recording a second before the video begins — in the very center of an elegant room lined with bookshelves, there's a large dog pacing in a tight ring. Fire blazes around its paws, flickering against the glowing lines of an intricate magic circle inscribed on the floor beneath it. Outside the circle, a dozen or so black cats surround the dog.

Whenever the dog comes too close to the edges of the circle, a sudden light flares up in warning, and the dog backs off. Still, the cats tense, baring their teeth, their claws scraping against the floor. A few bold ones even make as if to lunge at the dog, but they stay where they are. Their green eyes reflect the flames, shining with malice and hatred. But the dog pays no attention to them whatsoever. It snaps its jaws, fangs closing on empty air blurred by heat, and growls again, glaring at something off-screen.

As if following its gaze, the camera swivels in that direction and stops on Bernkastel. The witch sits still in one of the chairs, like she isn't bothered at all by the dog's presence. At this point, her cats show more expression than she does.

When she speaks, however, it's obvious that she's just managing to keep her voice calm. ]


Handing out cute animals only to have them warp into monsters... if this is the community's idea of an early Halloween trick, it's —

[ the dog interrupts with great booming barks, accompanied by yowls from Bernkastel's cats. Bernkastel closes her eyes until the din stops. ]

... Boring beyond belief.

So, since I'd rather not have all these books turn into ashes in case that thing escapes, does anyone want to take it away? I'm sure there's a person here who wouldn't mind bringing it to a special gathering for their enemies or something like that.
