[ Naturally, the castle being a difficult fuck, the castle manifests a coffin that is built into the floor. He couldn't drag it along if he tried. Which means they need to come back here once they find somewhere. Which means they have less time.

Sypha wakes in the morning whole and human and not nearly keen enough, in Trevor's opinion, to start wearing clothes again. He convinces her, fusses over her for the morning, but by afternoon she's impatient to leave even if she isn't really well enough to be walking around yet.

The journey to London is slower with her still recovering. It's three days instead of one with frequent breaks to make sure she's eating a little every hour or so and resting enough. But they're lucky. The spiritualist's house may not have been ungodly enough before Sypha walked into it, but it was certainly ungodly enough after. And the line doesn't run through it, but it runs close enough that static electricity gathers in Sypha's clothes and hair. She'll need to find a way to work off that excess magical energy once she's less drained - right now she probably needs all she can get - but they can figure that out later. The issue is just getting back to Alucard.

Trevor goes alone. They're short on time, and Sypha still isn't well enough to travel quickly and they don't have that much time left. It means leaving her alone in a strange city, which isn't ideal, but she has access to magic enough to hopefully defend herself.

He knocks on the coffin, because that's how you interact with coffins I guess. ]
