Chapter Three.

The next morning, in the Fairy Land:

Erek woke up thinking about what he had to do today. His mother told him that corpses would be arriving from the Factory this evening. The vampires received the blood yesterday, simply because blood extraction is shorter than leaving corpses to dry. He thought that he could give a salary augmentation to the dark fairy factory workers, after all the barely get enough money to eat or dress themselves. ''I will send a letter to Normaniy in that case, to let her know of the augmentation'' Erek said to himself.

The king headed to his desk and started writing the letter. His mother came in,

-My son, good morning!

-Greetings, mother, Erek replied

-What are you doing at your desk at this hour in the morning? curiously said Meladonne

-I am writing a letter to the Queen Normaniy to let her know that I am giving an augmentation to my employees. I got word from one of them that the salary was extremely poor. Her employees are paid well enough to live a beautiful life. I will announce this to the people today.

-Well then, I will make sure that you get an appointment for the announcement

-Thank you, mother,

''Dear Normaniy, Queen of the Vampire Land,

I am writing this letter to inform you that I will be giving an augmentation to my employees of the Factory. You are probably wondering why. The salary of your employees is more than enough to live a good life, my employees do not. The council had voted this law many years before I was born, and I was never told about the bad life my employees have been living. Since it concerns our common factory, I had to let know.

Warm regards,

Erek, King of the Dark Fairies''

I am guessing this should suffice, he thought. I will call Henry the post-man.

He rang the little bell besides is desk, over this golden bell it was written '' Henry, post office''.

Just a few minutes later, the man came in.

-You have requested me, my King?

-Yes. I need you to deliver this letter to the Queen of the Vampire land as soon as possible

-I will attend this task now, Your Majesty

-Thank you, Henry. Oh, and tell me personal cook to give you a warm meal when you come back. Since it is winter.

-Thank you very much Your Majesty!

Erek smiled at the post-man, then the old man left. The was doing this to keep his subjects as faithful as possible. In case of war, with the vampires, he will need the most help as possible. Simply because vampires are violent creatures when they are angry, much worst angry and at night.'' The humans must never know, it would be a massacre for the three clans'' he thought aloud.

16 o'clock, at the village's public place:

The king stepped on the stage that was setup for him.

-Greetings people of Krisht! I have decided to give an augmentation to the workers of the Factory! The old law had been voted by the old members of the council before I was even born. I made this decision to make sure you could have enough money to live a great life. If you have any requests concerning anything, feel free to either write me a letter to my personal mailbox or address yourself to the society council of Krisht! Have a wonderful day, my dear subjects!

Erek smiled kindly to all his people gathered in this public place, he knew he made them more than happy. He was glad, because that's he wanted, that's what he needed. Then he heard his men and women calling to him saying: THE KING IS THE GREATEST!! LONG LIVE THE GRAND KING EREK!!!

Midnight, Erek's office:

''I hope Normaniy received the letter'' Erek was worried. The king close blew out the candles in his office and headed to his room. As he walked, he saw a light coming out of under the councilman Mikase's office and voices. Erek kept on walking towards the door in silence. To his surprise. He heard the council man and woman talking about the fact that a human was spotted having a weird behaviour and asking question about the missing people. Their voices where full of worries, wich caused Erek to have a built up of panic inside of him. He silently hurried to his bedroom.

-Will he tell the other humans? Will there be war? We cannot afford that now. Oh great Mi, stop worrying too much Erek!

Still, he worried. All night long…..
