Summary
Avid gasped, tears filling his eyes as a sharp pain pierced his gut. His vision was blurring, exhaustion pulling at his muscles. He needed food. He needed meat he needed-
There.
A sheep, blinking slowly up at him. It's pristine wool shining a lovely white. Why was it even awake, Avid thought numbly, hands curling around the handle of his axe, didn't it know there were predators in these woods? Vampires could hunt it. Monsters. There were monsters in these woods.

“By the way, when you have a minute Doc, I think I could use a checkup?”
Legundo had to bite back a sharp quip at Avid about how a checkup wouldn't fix what was wrong with him. “I’m working on a clinic, but it's not quite ready for patients yet.”
“Oh yeah, whenever you have time.” Avid nodded and turned away.

Legundo makes time.

Summary
The humans of Oakhurst (and Apo) lay a trap at the crypt beacon for the vampires, but something buried below wakes up early.

In the pit, his boots slipped over shadowed cobblestone. Strange that someone would replace the floor. If they were filling it in, they couldn’t have done more than a single layer because the treacherous hole was just as deep as Martyn remembered.
Martyn poured water over the rocks and had just called up for the Doc to lower a second stream for Martyn to swim up, when a faint dripping noise caught his attention. Water was seeping through the cobblestone into a hollow space. He looked down. Was there something under there? Cocking his head, he pulled out his pickaxe.

Summary
Elle walked down the path, frowning down at the old, faded map in her hands. “Paths to Oakhurst” is written in old-fashioned, fancy script in the corner. It wasn’t all that helpful, because a good quarter of the map had “DO NOT GO TO OAKHURST” scrawled in frantic, blood-red letters, a desperate warning that Elle was purposefully not listening to.
But she’d put together all the clues, all the conversations she’d had with Avid before she’d… All of them pointed to Oakhurst. She’d been trying to go there beforehand, anyway, when she got bitten; it would make sense if that's where he decided to go.OR: Elle arrives at Oakhurst, mere days after the conflict was resolved and everyone left. Now she must try to figure out what happened here... and find her missing partner. If he's still alive...

Summary
Avid convinced himself to go back to town six times as he stumbled through the underbrush, tripping over rotten logs and smacking his face into needled branches. But each time he turned to go back (because being alone in these woods was stupid) he saw Sausage avert his eyes, Martyn shrug with an apologetic wince, and Drift stare at him silently.

Avid doesn't go back to Oakhurst.
