However, despite my answers, he would gift me many things like sending money to my family, buying me jewels, and giving me ivory from the southern lands and silk clothing. Whenever he asked if I wanted anything else, I would only shake my head in response.Normally, he would understand and turn away, but today, he gazed at me vacantly. When I approached him, asking what was wrong, he laid his head on my shoulder lifelessly."Why do you lie to me every time?"He lifted his hand slowly and grabbed ny wrist."Why won't you tell me..."He spoke desperately, as though he would fall apart at any moment."...to save you?"

I suspect you might not be surprised to hear that this is a loose adaptation of Shakespeare's play. It tries to go a bit closer to what little we know about the historical Macbeth, and also to give Lady Macbeth (Gruoch) a bit more of a role, but he broad strokes are still much as the play was, and it even includes some of the play's more famous lines. That last bit was a little odd to translate too. The author's foreword says that they used Victor Hugo's son's translation of the play as a source, and changed them round, but I found for the most part they were straight quotes. However it posed a bit of a problem in translation, I don't know how 'modern' that French translation would be compared to a contemporary French translation of the play, I don't know of a 'modernised' 1860s English version of the play and I certainly wouldn't want to try it myself, so I used mainly the original, but left the foreword in anyway.

Captain 'Leon Winston' of the Domestic Intelligence Division of the Western Command of the Ripon Kingdom. Despite his elegant and noble appearance, he is notorious for inflicting brutal torture on rebels, earning him the nickname "The Vampire of Campton," making him both an object of envy and a target of curses from both allies and enemies.

Strangely, the maid "Sally Bristol" in the torture chamber became an object of desire for him, akin to the uncontrollable rage he held against the rebels. She is an ordinary woman with nothing special about her… So why does the smell of blood she exudes constantly arouse him? The question did not linger long. The moment her name escaped from the lips of a rebel spy, he realized he no longer needed to suppress his violent desires.
