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.

Digging them all- Part 2
The man stood tall and proud, his face dull like a dead man who lacked any expression or emotion. Edith had realised who had come to meet her right after the first knock and so did Lucas as if they knew who was at the door which was why they left right away. She had her head bowed before she raised it.
"Crane," she greeted.
"Edith," Crane greeted her back, "You have a lovely place here. Very mortal-like," came his slow, deliberate words. His eyes moved to look at the room he stood in, which was small but dark.
"It is easier to blend. The mortals will label me as a witch if I don't act like them," Edith replied for the man not to respond who was looking at the things around him, but he wasn't looking. He was smelling the scent of the two individuals who had disappeared before Crane had pushed the door open.
