In the scene from "Dark Prince" by Christine Feehan, a greenish mist emerges from cracks in a collapsed wall, moving through the room with a brief shimmer. Gregori positions himself protectively in front of the mist, shielding his prince from any potential danger. This mist is often a manifestation of lesser vampires, those who are newly turned and rely on their more powerful counterparts for protection and guidance.

As the mist starts to take on a human form, Byron confronts Gregori with a sense of urgency. He is concerned about the fallen prince and the identity of the individual buried under the rubble. This moment highlights the tension and mystery surrounding the situation, as questions about responsibility and the hidden dangers of the vampire world arise.
