You visit Arielle.

Even without your powers you can sense there has been a change in Arielle. You mean to find out what it is and if it will endanger your friends. her tent is near Harold's and you notice him eyeing you intently as you untie the flap of Arielles tent. It is still dark enough you can barely make out her form across the tiny tent.

"Arielle, you ok? You seem different."

"You should not have come here, I am still so very thirsty."

"The is still water and mead out by the fire would you like..."

Arielle's eyes snap open, glowing a disturbing red. You start to scream, but she is on you before you can open your mouth. You feel twin pains in your neck. You try to scream, but a hand covers your mouth. You squirm and thrash trying to free yourself. With each attempt you grow weaker and weaker. Finally, you can move no more. You feel **** approaching. Arielle seems to recognize something is wrong and allows you to drop to the floor. Just as the first rays of morning begin to lighten the tent, darkness engulfs you.

You are dead. The constant touch of your goddess which you have felt even here without your powers, disappears. The lusts and desires your deity had washed away to make you a better healer, return. Indeed not only do they return, they seem magnified. You sense your body changing. Your breasts feel larger, rounder, more succulent. You skin lightens to the alabaster color of Arielle's. Your hair lengthens and grows darker. Your fingernails grow darker, stronger, and very very sharp. You can sense the sun slowly setting. As it begins to go below the horizon you stir. You run your tongue on a pair of razor sharp fangs. You slip an icy finger into your mons and begin to masturbate. You use the talon from your other hand to gently flick your nipple. It feels wonderful.

Arielle walks into her tent. "Welcome back my friend." She smiles at you with a fanged undead grin.

You hiss at her at first. She has interrupted your fun. Slowly you come to your senses, pull your trousers up and return her smile.

"We have much to talk about. Walk with me when we break camp. But, first use you newfound speed and ability to blend into the darkness to return to your tent. Coming out of mine would raise suspicions."

You move with speed and grace you did not possess yesterday. You pull the darkness around you and easily return to your own tent unnoticed.

Soon you, Arielle, and the humans break camp. You walk with Arielle speaking in hushed tones. "What do wish of me, Arielle?"

"Welcome to the dark network, my friend. My new master has tasked us with forming a spy network in the kingdom. We are to help corrupt it so that he can take it easily. So many souls to devour. I get all the fun jobs."

She smiles a wicked grin. "What about the others?" You ask.

"He has other plans for Caramus, the rest are ours to dispose of. You will need a blood thrall to travel, to supply you blood, and guard you in the daylight hours."

"Which one should I take?"

"Harold is mine, you may have Nadine or Grayboar. Or, if you feel ambitious, perhaps Chase. Be careful if you choose her. Her contact with her deity is weak, but she is still formidable and a danger to us."

You cover a great distance, all the while mulling which of the humans you should enslave. All too soon the night nears its's end and Arielle calls a halt. Your group begins to set up camp. The moment of choice nears do you pay a visit to Nadine, Grayboar, or perhaps Chase?
