[Hunkering down in the Hold is not a long term viable option. Alucard knows that, but Trevor's made it clear that this thing they do? He needs all the stamina he can for it, and the journey here has drained them. Blood is the answer, and between himself and Sypha? Alucard is the one who can provide.
He's just the spell caster, after all. Sure, he can use a sword as well as any man, and Sypha can gesture with a hand to make all kinds of things come to life, but in that prophecy of scholar, hunter, soldier? Alucard is the scholar. With a half a day to rest he can still fight. Sypha can't lose any.
It was the way Trevor brought the problem up that made it clear this was a difficult thing to ask in the first place. Alucard's guided them away from the Speaker's gaze and to a small corner of the Hold, where there are old, worn pillows that haven't suffered the worst of time. They're threadbare from use only.
Alucard sits, and gestures Trevor to come with him.]
