A Steampunk Guide to Hunting Monsters 18 | Page 15

P
erhaps a lady starts her hunting career with ghosts and goblins,
and later she progresses to cliff diving in pursuit of a giant
gryphon. No matter how adventuresome a lady becomes, there
will come a time when she feels she has run out of things to hunt, and
she will invariably set her mind to vampires. However, these beasts are
best left to the proper authorities — the police and military. Just as a
huntsman who goes out to shoot a deer for dinner would not, in the
end, shoot a human, neither should a refi ned lady monster-hunter ever
pursue a vampire. Hopefully this guide will give ladies ideas for monster
hunting that will keep her adrenaline pumping and her wallet emptying
for the rest of her natural life without ever needing to descend into the
demonic realms of the loss of her own humanity and life.
