[He's angry on his lord's behalf. Angry that his master's own son has given up on him. It's hypocritical. Hector has wondered, during some of the bloodier battles he's fought on Dracula's behalf, whether it wouldn't be better for Hector to set sail for the sunset with his pets, to find a place beyond Dracula's reach to flee to. But he hasn't. He'd held on to hope that reason will triumph over grief.]
There has to be a way to quell his wrath. I thought it might be this ship, but that's obviously wrong. You will do nothing for him.
[Hector's brain can't fathom an immeasurable grief. There must be an end to it, some marker they will reach when they present him the right prize or kill the right enemy, that will finally fill the depths and let him move on. It's only logical. Everything on this world is finite, and so this must be too. All beings have the innate drive for survival hardwired in, and Dracula cannot take his revenge so far as to actually destroy himself...right?]
