I know this spell. [Alucard announces this to no one in particular, eyes fixed on a small forest clearing as a misting rain comes down.] I'm only here for a few ingredients that grow here, I have no intention of remaining.
[This spell being the fact that the forest has turned Alucard in circles about five times now, all while preventing him from gathering up wood from a particular type of tree and very specific mushrooms that need to be restocked. He had to do this over a century ago. The forest wasn't as much as a problem then.
He frowns, pulling his coat closer. For all the wool and fur lining, the cold is unnatural and unwanted. Probably on purpose, meant to put someone ill at ease.
Not that Alucard is surprised this place has a defender. There are still witch trials going on through Europe. When not dealing with idiots trying to bring his father back from the dead or supporting the ever sprawling Belmont family and branches, he's tried to spirit witches out of their prisons before their executions. (He's come to hate the Reformation and what happened in the wake of it. The Catholics should not be the people killing the least amount of witches here.) Those with power have found other ways to protect themselves.
Like this.
He huffs, walking over to a fallen tree and sitting himself on it.]
