Your reach into your bag and pullout a letter. Waving it infront of thier noses as though it was a sword. “Vot have you got there?” a voice says behind you. It’s Bastion. He stalks forward as the other two edge nearer. Wilbur shouts your name and throws you the two rulers. Which you instantly form a coss with. All three vampires hiss. Jakob and Killishandra  burst into the forms of magpies totalling nine. What did therhyme say about nine magpies? The scowling vampire seems the most calm. “Vho iss the letter for?” You say lodly tat it ois for Baron Vladimir vorbrtten Magpyr. The scowl turns into a smile. “It iss fvor me then!” You hand him the letter and he retires to the fire to read it. The flapping of wings abovve your head makes you nervous, you try to back out of the room but trip on a rug dropping the rulers...

Congratulations you delivered the letter safely.

Unfortunately you were eatten by two hungry vampires but hey thats life!

Bit of a bummer!

 Nine magpies is a kiss – i guess the old rhyme still works after all.
