"Our Blood Lord, welcome to our humble house." The mother spoke, and her daughter finished right after her. "We are your service, our Great Lord."
Arad smiled and waved a hand. "Let's forget the formal stuff for now. I came to you with a request, a tricky one to fulfill." He opened his palm. "But first, I got you some gifts, or you can see it as a down payment."
In his hand, he had two vials, a small and a big one, and both were filled with glowing golden ichor. "Eris's blood, one for you and one for your daughter. I would've given you my blood, but it is too powerful for your bodies to endure."
