Nanny looked at the recumbant Igor.
"On reflection, maybe, I should've asked him." she said. She brightened up.
"Still, there's one way to find them. There's something everyone knows
about vampires..."

taking into account that perhaps the vampires known them by now, too.

Tacticus, whose intelligent campaigning had been so successful that he'd
lent his very name to the detailed prosecution of martial endeavor, and had
actually found a section headed What to Do If One Army Occupies a Well-
fortified and Superior Ground and the Other Does Not, but since the first
sentence read "Endeavor to be the one inside" he'd rather lost heart.
