"I take it we're going to see this vampire shortly?" Heinrich attempted with some success to hide his hatred of vampires, but Lloyd could definitely sense some kind of vendetta. Despite all the man's talk about "holy work", there was clearly more to Heinrich's motivation than mere religious duty.
"I believe I've encountered this one before," Lloyd nodded, almost certain of their enemy's identity, "He's a powerful vampire known as Nightmare. He's.... quite strong, especially while in the dark. However..." Lloyd pulled out the magnesium powder Gregory had received earlier. The dark cylindrical container looked almost sinister in the shadows.
"If things get bad, a little chemistry knowledge should be enough to weaken him to the level of us mere-mortals." Lloyd grinned, "Did you know that powdered magnesium can be ignited to make a brief flash of blinding light? If mere sunlight is enough to rob him of most of his strength...." His voice trailed off, allowing Heinrich's imagination to do the rest. However, despite Lloyd's words of confidence, he knew it was extremely fortunate that Heinrich was a specialist in hunting creatures of the dark. It would be risky to bring science alone into a fight against the supernatural. Of course though, he would never admit that. To Lloyd, science and logic could always win the day. It was merely a lack of experience against the supernatural that gave him a disadvantage. Heinrich's skills however, would easily compensate for this. It did seem a little strange that a priest would join an organization like the Requiem. Now, Lloyd finally knew why.
As they approached the door to the vampire's chambers, Lloyd readied his revolver, crouching slightly to the side of the door.
"Be on guard," He warned Heinrich. "I have about enough magnesium to use about three times, but not much more. Hopefully, it'll give us an edge at the start of the fight, but the element of surprise won't last forever, so we'll have to finish him quickly. Are you ready?"
