Vicente sat at the piano, eyes darting from the sheet music to the keys. The vampire knew how to read music, but hadn't touched an instrument in many decades. Learning to play this instrument was just one more thing to keep him busy. In his lap was a book on piano playing, borrowed from the library. He played a simple tune, getting the basics down.

The vampire had recovered from his encounter with the monster, having since fed. He still had some bandages on under his clothes, but his wounds were healing. He was also planning another nightly trip so he could acquire a weapon. Even a letter opener would do.

"Is that so?" Sephiran said. "For someone who's had no experience with the piano, you're off to a good start. I haven't really played it myself, but I know what good playing sounds like."

"Reading the notes and learning the keys are simple enough," The vampire said, tapping the book and sheet music.

"I see," Sephiran said. "I am more of a singer myself, so I know how to read music. It's lining it up with the keys that's a little more difficult."

"I am nothing if not patient and willing to learn," Vicente said. One had to learn patience when he was ageless and needed to find ways to keep from getting bored.

"Patience is indeed a virtue, especially when you have time on your hands," Sephiran said. "Though sometimes, events in the tower like to cut in on this time."
