"No mistake, that's the one, Little Isha is safe now." Lancelot's voice sounded noticeably more relaxed, "Help Alamir first, I'll help Bruto. Did you notice the passage on the left? We'll withdraw from there shortly..."
Kalalin paused briefly, suddenly realizing what he had missed—a vague mist, like steam, wafted out the moment the cocoon was broken. Vampires can transform into mist when on the verge of death (as long as they're not in sunlight or running water), where they can be immune to all non-magical damage and escape back to their dormant tomb. Clearly, that mist was Little Isha, and the slumbering place for the Vampire Wanderer happened to be in the Human Knight's Dimensional Bag.
Having understood this, the Scholar's mind quickly settled. His attention returned to the battle at hand. Kalalin first turned his head to confirm the cave's exit, then looked at other parts of the battlefield.
