Plunging into a concealed pit of hissing, writhing, fork-tongued vipers engaged in a mating ritual, and escaping venomous attacks.

Thoughts and Prayers

**

Encountering rampaging, vampiric human monsters, who will contrary to their nature and avowed calling, voluntarily exercise self-restraint and forego their bloodlust.

Thoughts and Prayers

**
