This is a castle made entirely of dark marble and stone, made in the gothic style, and is located deep in the mountains on a steep edge. The name of the castle, "Václav", is the Czech version of the name Wenceslas, which means "more glory" in Slavic.
In many ways, this castle seems almost like a copy off of the basic ideas of what "Dracula's Castle" might look like. There are large stained glass windows, sharply reaching towers, and a large court-yard in which all the plant-life, except a single red rose bush in the center of the yard, has died. The walls surrounding the court yard are, for the most part, large mirrors... it seems almost like a fun-house, with the black and white over-grown patio way leading to and from the yard.
Inside, there are more rooms than could be counted. Each is wonderfully decorated with the highest of quality, although a little dusty. Every bedroom, as well as the dining rooms and the living areas have huge stone fireplaces that you could stand in with marble counter tops and beautiful custom-made iron work in the form of flowers and vines over it. There are also many librarys, with books hundreds of years old and in just about every language covering just about every topic, however, most seem to be specifically about alchemy and black and white magic...
the oddest thing is that no one seems to live here, although there are so many paintings inside of so many people, it is rather curious as to who they are.

Sapphire walked into the castle staring in awe at the architechure. She was looking for a place to stay and since no one lived here, she decided to stay for the night. Her room was beautiful. It was a deep red with black stripes painted on it. The bedding was black and red. Everything was black and red except for the clothing, which was a variety of colors.

he swallowd, choked on emotion. the woman in the painting... she was to beautiful to look at.. even after all these years. he held a hand up to her painting and said in aciant Latin. " my love... i do as you asked.. i watch and protect it... " a tear feel down his cheek and his eyes shifted, as if looking far away. " it hurts... i miss you so much.." he let his head fall forward as he swallowed again. then he switched into french. " Mon Amour..." he said quietly. his fingers stayed on the painting as he stood their, fighting the urge to break down.

Kirai walked into the castle, smiled. "It has not changed at all..." Her hand went over a desk, long lines in the dust from where her fingers had been remained. She sighed. "Oh home sweet home, how I would love to stay... but others have come for you, too." Her eyes were both saddened, and seemed to glow with anger, however her voice remained calm. "I'll have to tell the others, but once this is over..." She walked like a ghost in the castle, came across her room, keeping quiet because she knew others where there. Inside, there was a doll of porcelain... it was beautiful, with really curled blonde hair, dressed in a silk and velvet dress. Kirai walked over to it, kissed it softly, then quickly made her way to the mirror, and left pratically unnoticed.

Sapphire walked out of the room and went to explore the rest of the house. She had changed into a dark red dress with a corset. She walked through the house ended up in the kitchen.

Kirai awoke. She had sneaked in the night before, and had fallen asleep in her room. Lucky she got there in time, several times she nearly fainted on the way there. Kirai got up, and looked in her old closet. She changed from her long night gown into a dark blue dress, the sleeves were long and fitted, her dress laced up in the back and had a high waist with a medium length collar. The lace used on the dress was an even darker blue, almost black. With this she put on a neck corset and black lace cuffs, with a dark red ring on her left hand. After fixing her hair after this, she walked in the halls of the place, with two intents which her eyes had been set upon since she first came back.

Sapphire felt that something was off. She moved through the castle and she noticed a beautiful girl. She felt the urge to leave and she went back up to her room. She changed back into her clothing and placed the dress back in its place she fixed the room. Sapphire didn't go back to the front door. She jumped off the balcony. She felt a pain in her chest when she jump and her back opened up. Beautiful black wings had sprouted from her back. She flew to the edge of the estate and her wings went into her back. She ran down the block not caring where she went.

Kirai arrived with Pride and Lust, in a large dining hall lit by about a hundred candles. "Friends, are you alright?"

"Everyone, let us go to bed. Take a room of choice, and we shall head back whenever we feel fit, most likely tomorrow morning." She then tured around and looked from the doorway, calmly smiling, "Good night, dear friends." Kirai, knowing the enterances to Haven were safe, decided against the wishes of Greed, to make a move of her own. Dr.Avarice is the closest one in my life... Edward, although being the leader of the Red Cross, is a soon-to-be father and a husband... Greed wants to see the birth of their child, for the advancment of science and because it is so rare... and the spirit of the child deserves a father, and if he is not a good one, that can always be fixed. However, what good will come from them fighting or killing each other now? Just to make a point? Also, Kat is still not here. And... if I somehow can't bring back Dr.Avarice if he dies... If her soul left this soon after it just came back, and wandered that far, there is a chance it could not come back, but this was very small. She finally made it to her room, layed down on bed, holding a small silver compact hidden in her hand, fell asleep and let her soul wander.

Kirai and Dr.Avarice arrived in the castle. She walked to her room. "Dr.Avarice, this entire hall is different rooms you could stay in for the night. I do trust you, and can read you rather well, so if you wish to stay in here, I do not mind."

"I wish to stay here." He said, removing his stained shirt and curling up on the bed. He watched her and held out his arms. "Cuddle?" He chuckled at the way he sounded, but enjoyed it.

Kirai smiled slightly, and within the moment fell asleep.
