Darius watched from a good distance as the palace guards dragged humans out of their homes and loaded them onto the carts he had prepared to take them to their new homes.
Hearing the screams and the smell of blood from those who needed to be hit to get them to behave, Darius wanted to join in the fun, but he couldn't. He couldn't get close until the hiding spot of the humans who attacked vampires was found and raided.
"Find any holy weapons and bring them to me!" Darius ordered the guards.
With the last of the holy weapons collected, Darius would claim them as his own and use them against the same families threatening his spot on the throne.
Darius recently realised what he needed to do to remain king forever.
Whoever controlled the holy weapons controlled all vampires.
