Sinead had welcomed the 14 year old girl orphan to stay at the Tower of Light, providing her with clean dresses, clothes, books to read, everything the girl could want or need. That was, everything except a mother and father. No need, she had began to look at Krixia as her mother figure.
Had just bathed and wore a clean brown dress, she hopped into the room in which she was staying with her crutches, still getting over her broken ankle. There was a note on the floor of her room. The girl moved her right crutch to her left hand, she removed the crutch from her right armpit to her hand and gripped the handles of both crutches, balancing herself as she crouches down and grasps the note. she rises back up and moves the crutches to her underarms. Opening the parchment it read
~I have information for you about the vampires that killed your family. Meet me at the Lake~
Curious Coby folded the parchment, she wondered what about the vampires? Were they searching for her now? Did someone kill them? There was only one way to retrieve the information. It was a nice day for a walk anyway so the girl decided to hop on over with her crutches to the lake.

Baracus stood by the lake staring over the ripples and enjoying the silence and breeze. He stood covered in his battle gear, and his left arm cloaked only to be revealed during combat anymore. He had gotten word that a band of vampires had been gorging themselves through the lands and he had been tasked to either reason with them or to eliminate them. During his tracking he came upon a few bodies, and personal affects. Within them photos in a box along with some rings, necklaces, and about a hundred gold pieces. He had tracked the owners of everything else but this box, he had to search hard to find a possible heir to this small treasure trove. Then when he got a possibility he discovered she was holed up in the ToL, the one place he couldnt go, thus he sent an anonymous letter.

The lake came into view and she made her way towards it. There was a figure standing there. A demon? Her body shivered slightly but she wanted whatever he had for her, so using her crutches, she hopped her way on over towards him. Stopping just a couple of feet from him, the girl looked up at him with soft brown eyes, "Hello?"

Baracus turned to see the girl from the pictures. She was alone and injured, and of no warrior merit. He stood stunned as to how she even made it to the lake, or waiting for the guards to come following...but nothing.
"You...came...alone?"
He could see now why her home was taken so easily and quickly. If this girls parents were as ..odd as this girl Baracus would've guessed they survived 10 maybe 12 seconds.
"you dont know me child, but I stumbled across something I believe is yours."
He would reach into his tunic pulling out the small 6 inch box, with a broken lock.

Watched as he turned. Her eyes watching him carefully. He asked if she came alone and a simple nod was given to him. "I did" she stared at the demon and he told her he came across something that he believed to be hers. He then reached into his tunic and pulled out a small 6 inch box with a broken lock.
Eyes lit up as she saw it and she looked to him as she used her crutches to hop her way on over to him. "It... its been years since I have see it." she reached out to take it. If he would give it to her, she would open it up and look inside. A smile crossing her lips, as she shut it quickly and looked up at him. "Thank you so much. What do I owe you?"

Baracus would snarl at the girls cheerfulness and obvious ignorance to where she was and how dangerous it was for her to be here. He would give her the box and wouldn't admit it but he had been the one to break the lock to find some evidence of the owner. When she asked how much his charge was he leaned in and smelt her essence and snarled up a devilish grin.
"Blood, 4 vials of your blood."
He knew as young as she was and as cleaned up as she was, chances were good she was pure, and perfect to have blood most conjurers dreamed of having. He would hand her the four capped vials and a highly sharpened dagger. He had learned that most humes fainted at 6, and died around 7 or 8 so he wouldn't put her in peril.

Was taken aback and her eyes grew wide as he spoke of the 4 vials of blood. Those eyes looked to the vials and the dagger, then down at the box. It was all she had of her family now. How was she supposed to stop the bleeding once she started. "sir?" Those soft brown eyes looked down, then rose back to meet his eyes, "Are you a healer? How am I supposed to stop the bleeding afterwards? How am I supposed to have the strength to return to the place in which I am residing after the loss of that much blood?" She hung her head, wanting the box, but his price, it seemed as if he wanted her to be in a weakened state and not able to hold herself up afterwards.
