 The visage of the man disperses into a black and red cloud before reforming into a young boy, no older than 12, with a small sword at his side and tears streaming from his cheeks. The mist recedes further revealing a glorious, well adorned, and sunlit castle courtyard. The low buzz of insects and the humidity add weight to the summer air. And hanging high above him are red banners draped over towering ramparts that depict the same raven iconography, cast in metal, on the front of the book he just opened. The man that stood before him moments ago, now appears to be a boy, sit atop a small set of stairs, leading to a wooden door, from behind it he hears distant and boisterous laughter.
-Dain has a crying boy in from of him. He opens with, “Good day to you! Are you master Strahd?”. The boy, sniffing, looks up and says, “I’m going to call you Petrov! You are my friend, Petrov.”. He adds, “I’m lord of this castle, my father says so. Kneel before me Petrov!”, as he is still crying. “Kneel, I’ve got to learn how to do this, help me!”, as he stands up trying to look all tough and stuff. Dain spreads his cloak out behind him gives him a nice kneeling. He says, “I don’t want to do this!”, Dain respoinds, “but it is your birthright, it’s in your blood!”. Stradh replies, “That’s what Rydan says, and father says, and mother says.”. Dain replies, “They are correct! It is in your blood!”.

 He hears this raucous laughter from the door behind Strahd. Strahd, sniffs and looks back, and says, “All they can think about is that stupid baby!”. Dain replies, “The baby is new, they will be enamored with it for a while, but ultimately, you are the eldest!”. Strahd says, “But I am the heir, I’m the important one.”. Daoin said, “Let them have their time!”, then asked, “I believe that’s Sergei, right, your young brother?”. He replied, “Yes! And it will be my job, to teach him everything I know. How to fight, how to be regal, he’s probably going to run off with that Megan Markle!”. Dain said, “None of that matters in the end, you are the heir! It is up to you to take care of your peo0ple, it is up to you to take care of your family.”. Strahd replies, “But I don’t want to do it! I don’t know if I can!”. Dain said, “You will, you will want to be the leader at some point in your life. It is better to lead than to let someone else lead you estray.”.
