    Summary

    'It is here', I thought, coming to consciousness in the small hours. That unmistakable gaze was upon me again. I steeled myself to open my eyes, far less sure of my request to bring it back now that it was near.
    Some time passed before mustering the required nerve, and never once did I hear the thing I knew was there make a sound. I pushed myself upright in one oafish motion so I would not have time to second guess myself, determined to look upon my visitor.
    It was not as I remembered.

    The nightly visitor that paces at the foot of Laura's bed is no dream. She knows that, but precious little else. When she finally tells Carmilla of her plight, she inadvertently causes an irreversible shift in their relationship; one that forces her to examine long-avoided questions buried deeply enough that only her real dreams seem to know where the answers lie. Carmilla is more than happy to help her figure out what those answers are.

    Summary

    “Carmilla, please,” I begged, unable to stand seeing her so. “What ails you?”
    She gazed on me so piteously I forgot myself and stepped further in to go to her, help her somehow…but I halted mid-step as she startled, bracing herself on the snow-dusted stone at her back.
    The door swung shut behind me with a low, protracted creak as we stared at each other, at a loss. Eventually, she lowered her eyes, biting her lip as she did when in consternation, though on this occasion it was eerily difficult to tell the white of her teeth from the colourless lip into which they dug.
    The tumult of nameless worries colliding in my mind and beating in my breast quieted as terrible revelation dawned on me.

     

    Something is wrong with Carmilla.
    While her father is occupied with dinner guests, Laura seeks out her companion, determined to find out what.

    Summary

    Her father had hoped that their year-long retreat to Italy would lift Laura’s spirit — and it did, for a while at least. But now that they are back in Styria, without the blazing seaside sun or the exuberant colors to distract her, Laura constantly finds her mind wandering off to some pocket realm between dreams and reality, where the scent of musky roses permeates through the air.

    For Laura, memories of Carmilla never quite fade away.
