[ This is- not the bathing room. His first instinct is to run. To run and gather up Sypha and run some more. A coffin and that much blood- it can't be anything good. But windows are rare here, and this one is uncovered. It's strange, to see the daylight, how the sun cuts through what has seemed until now like an eternal night.
This is an opportunity. If there's a vampire in there, then he just has to open the coffin up and let the sunlight hit them. They'll be gone without a sound, and until they're missed this part of the castle will be safer for it. If Sypha needs to rest a little longer, she'll be able to.
His mind made up, he grabs at the lid of the coffin. It's heavy, and it's smooth enough to be difficult to get a good grip on, but he slowly, slowly heaves it upward. ]
