Sitting on at the elegantly carved table, I grin despite my bad mood. Carver has had his staff set out a veritable feast for me: eggs benedict with hollandaise, pastries of all sorts, black coffee piping fresh and hot, a mountain of decadent strawberries and melons, and more bacon and sausage than ten people could eat.

I grab a plate and dig greedily into the eggs benedict first. “I don’t need to eat.”

“You still like it, a habit that’ll grow more dull and useless with maturity, but I wanted to do something nice for you. After your nightmare, I think something to help calm you is more than needed.”

“It was a vision, and we’re in trouble. Lavinia and Abe are probably in trouble.”

“Yes, but you have to understand the races you’re dealing with first. The Kresova, Draugur, Baetal, and the Istria have existed as long as time in memoriam. If Abehartach is the father of our race, then there are rulers almost as old as he is for the other factions. They have their own power---not as much as Morana has amassed---but they’re not enemies you wish to cross. Besides, if we start any wars, then Morana will surely figure out what we’re doing and strive to stop us. Cut us down long before we’re ready.”

“And how did any of this come to be?” I ask, setting my food down. The enormity of what we’re trying to accomplish, struggling to fight against, has left me drained and anything but hungry. “Are we demons? You say we have two souls.”

“We’re neither demonic or angelic. Magic helped form us, but it’s like I told you, you’re the one who chooses to how to live and act. You can be a monster like Morana or someone who has lines they won’t cross. There are Kresova who never do more than drink the bagged blood now provided for them.”

“But how did we start?”

“Only the four most ancient kings know our true origin, and all but Abe have been subdued and murdered by their own fledglings. The royal heads who remain are old and powerful, most as old at least as Morana, but none of the vampires still fully undead and roaming the earth know all our secrets. When the time comes, you’ll have to ask Abe everything. Mon Dieu, I’ll be right there with you, trying to get answers to the questions gnawing at my own mind for centuries.”

“And the races? Is it all geography?”

“Not all of it. We each have our own particular skills, or at least we did. The oldest of each race still have preternatural skills, psychic gifts if you will. Most of the vampires if they’re under three hundred or come from weak bloodlines---regardless of race---do not.”

“Wait, so you’re four hundred. What extra skills do you have?”

“My ability to track my prey and almost know what their next move it. Not quite a name for it, but consider it like being the worlds best hunter. Each of La Tieur have the skill.
