Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

"But they need the bodies to return, don't they?" asked Belle, a small frown appearing on her face.
"They do," Lucas agreed to her.
"And Vivian's body is corrupted. Should we possibly take it to someone to fix them up?" asked Belle because she knew how important it was to have a vessel for a soul. A vessel was an empty shell that would in time not corrupt, but it would decay. And if she were not wrong, their bodies would be buried or were buried now.
"We don't do anything," he shook his head, "Edith said not to involve ourselves any more than what we have done already because it would cause too much imbalance. The ghoul will fix them."
Belle didn't know how the ghoul would fix the bodies when it didn't speak the language of what people talked here, and no one could understand it apart from her and possibly Lord Nicholas who the ghouls belonged to.
"Do you think it can do it?" Belle had her doubts.
