Russians see haemovores rise from the fog

On the windswept English coast Captain Sorin and his lieutenant Vershinin witness haemovores emerging from the shrouding fog on Maidens Point. A single survivor’s account of dead men stepping from a black vapor confirms Fenric’s ancient curse is awakening. Sorin, hardening his resolve, begins sharpening a wooden stake as the first of the undead troops pass below, their supernatural nature revealed not in speech but in the grim tableau of stalking figures led by Jean and Phyllis. The moment forces the Russians to acknowledge a threat surpassing any battlefield weapon, binding the fate of the Viking treasure and the village to their next tactical choice. key_dialogue: [ SORIN: Six months ago, a small sabotage team was sent into German occupied Romania. Only one survived. He talked about dead men coming out of a black fog. The official report said he'd been listening to too much local gossip about vampires. VERSHININ: But vampires don't exist. SORIN: Of course not. ]
