PART FIVE

> Having returned to Sweden, the group follows a series of clues to a manor near Halland where Dreifuss and his allies have gathered for the implementation of their plan. Using the party to poison their guests, they intend to influence world politics to allow them to bring their army of vampires back to the world, and with Aldric focused on other matters, do so unopposed. A fight breaks out in the premises, as Otto called specialist BND forces to the scene. During the fight Klara is mortally wounded by Dreifuss as he is trying to engage Elise. Otto, at first reluctant to help citing his previous failures, does give her enough energy to survive until the hospital. After being rushed to the hospital, Klara slips in and out of critical condition until after several weeks, she finally stabilizes. After stabilizing, Otto finally tells her his complete backstory.
