Saralegui starts a little at the brusque intrusion, and the guards hovering outside look for a moment like they aren't sure if they should intervene. Luckily, their lord at least has the sense to wave them off distractedly and shut the door in their (admittedly relieved) faces.

Turning back to face the Brucolac and slightly more awake, he starts in with a "What are you--" before suddenly the vampire is leaning towards him with an offered baby.

That certainly wakes him the rest of the way.

"What?" he repeats, bewildered, and by the way his hands hover in front of him almost defensively, you'd think the Brucolac was trying to hand him a bomb.
