Meirin

“The ebony dwarves are rarer in these lands, their home being the Islands on the far side of the Empire, but there were two in the Guard… And the female drow…” he closed his eyes, shaking his head slowly. “That will be Meirin, Former First Lady of Moonhold, one of his other followers…” He looked at me then, straightening up and taking a deep breath. “Lord Scion…” Lucian declared formally. “…I charge you, as the highest authority in the land, to cleanse the corruption of the vampyr from these lands. “I will submit to any punishment by association you desire, but please, a nest of this kind has not been seen in centuries. Here, a nest is found before it can grow to encompass the land, and so, too, are found those who can oppose it. It is for this the Empire was founded. To protect the innocent, to punish the guilty, only one such force is capable of doing what must be done, and that is the Legion.”
