[ Tiny Xenk can do little else but scream as his 'father' begins squeezing Kirk's windpipe shut without any effort at all. A vampire's full strength is nothing to scoff at, but Szass Tam is old, obviously from several centuries ago. Xenk may never have faced his wrath personally, but there's no doubt he saw this monster kill plenty of people like this.
People who displeased him. Boy, does he look displeased. ]
Do the weak truly draw your interest, boy? You know what you risk by disobeying me. They are the ones who will suffer for your weakness.
[ Xenk knows. His parents -- they suffered, if he ever disobeyed, if he ever missed a lesson. It was not Xenk who felt his father's ire. It never was. ]
Please, father! [ Xenk sounds older as he says this, even looks older now: his late teens? ] Stop! Please, I will -- I will do ask you ask! I will do better! Please, release him!
