Years Later...
Vampire Lord Nosdyn looked at his instructor, Velera for a long moment. By that point, his son, Conrad had become a fine young Vampire. Raised by him and his wife, Anya and their instructor Velera.
The Vampire Castle was secluded in the region of The Empire but few knew it's location.
Nosdyn fought a deck of cards to get where he was at and become the leader of a clan of Vampires...their strain Velera called it.
As he stood there reading, he felt two familiar presences.
His son, Conrad and Velera. Conrad had a cheerful disposition but that was only part of the story.
Like his Father, Nosdyn, Conrad had develop a powerful military mind.
The two worked together to dream up strategies and tactics to always keep a step ahead of any enemy or contingency.
Nosdyn lost track of days and years at that point, the immortality and flowing of time that came with it had already settled in his soul.
Parts of him had changed since his simple days of youth as a miner. Parts of him had remained the same...but amplified.
Velera explained that their strain was in constant flux...almost unstable of a mutation.
Nosdyn wanted to learn all he could primarily of The Darkness within...
Many years prior an entity from beyond started to commune with him.
Velera attempted to tell him that Vampires had no religion...but he was never convinced.
He'd been searching The Vampire Archives for a hint of what he was after...a PURPOSE.
Nosdyn was always a goal driven man.
As he read tome after tome...he knew he was close.
"Reading again Father?" That was Conrad's deep voice asking the question in almost amusement.
Nosdyn nodded towards Velera and Conrad. "Answers do not seek themselves." Nosdyn said quietly. He wasn't even tired...he never slept. "What time is it?" Nosdyn suddenly asked out of habit.
"Sixth hour of the night." Conrad responded. "You lost track of time again." Conrad was a gifted Blue Orc much like his Father was.
