A grandfather clock that you pass in the corridor tells you that it is 10
o'clock. The castle (assuming that's what the building is - the stone
walls certainly give that impression) doesn't seem to have any windows,
presumably to avoid the risk of any sunlight entering, so you can't be
sure whether it's morning or evening. However as the meal just finished
was dinner, you assume that it must be 10pm. You don't feel the slightest
bit tired, though. Could that be because, as a vampire, you are naturally
nocturnal? Though if you can't see the world
outside, whether you sleep by day or night seems rather arbitrary.
You decide that you don't want to return to your quarters just yet and that it would be a good idea to explore a little. Dracula hasn't told you that you shouldn't, though you have little doubt that you would be in serious trouble should you try to leave the building. By now all the other girls' paths have diverged from your own, so when you reach the door to your own room there is no one to tell you that you shouldn't walk on by. Carrying on down the passageway, you pass a mirror on the wall and notice that you no longer have a reflection. So that bit of vampire mythology is true, then. You wonder what the point is of having a mirror as a wall decoration at all. Perhaps it is very old, and dates from a time either before Dracula or when he was still human?
