Just out of Lutetia territory, the coast became slightly more desolate of villages. With any luck and a map, one could travel from one to another with a few days of hiking. Rough country roads wound between them. Now and again, someone would stumble upon one of these villages, not having recognized their departure from Lutetian soil.
Every now and again, they would discover something a little startling.
Within one of these quaint villages, which went by the name of Ghastin, a semi truck was parked. It was attached to several tanks that rose five feet into the air, able to hold several gallons. Tubes ran into the tops of these tanks, stained red on the inside.
Sitting in front of the truck were several people, some sitting down, others standing over them. Upon closer inspection, one would see that the thin tubes that ran from the truck were attached to the people who were seated.
Simultaneously, one could make out that the figures before them didn't have much in the way of a face. Or skin. Or eyes.
In fact, the lot of them were a skeleton crew dressed in blue scrubs... sapping blood from perfectly healthy, human people.
