Ah, This Journal Still Remains

Image
  While much of my journaling remains in logs unseen. I have reminded myself, that during this iteration of myself, I was sharing information with those that wanted to read. I must admit, this iteration of myself has been…different, from each time I have reset my human form to create a new identity. For so long I had been used to going through the motions of living a human life, while researching as much as I can, trying to find even a crumb of a clue about Akio. Once the fact that I wasn’t aging would get too close to being recognized, I packed up, moved, and became a different person. Admittedly, I hadn’t really found any relevant clues for the almost 200 years I have been searching. For some reason, before assuming this identity, I had come across the notion of broadcasting yourself to a greater audience. And I saw how many non-humans were doing it. It seemed like a safe way to send a signal in hopes that my rarity would catch the eye of the other person like me. Upon starting this

Friends I Met Along My Travels Chapter 1

 When you're searching for something, or rather someone impossible to find, you often find unexpected treasures along the way.      Being mostly undead meant that staying in one place for too long was not an option. It posed too many risks, the biggest one being, exposing that you never age to the people who live around you.      Now, I will pause here, because I know some will question the notion of not aging. Yes, I was a child at one point in my life and grew up. A vampire, born as a vampire, does age, so does a turn one. It's just that aging is a concept that can't quite be fully explained by natural terms of human aging. A born vampire will start off as an infant and age until adult age, which at that point, they stay looking that way for centuries. For the turned vampire, they stay as they were turned for centuries as well. But, as the centuries rack up, the aging does happy in appearance for a vampire. The more the centuries have racked up, the older the vampire look

Friends I Met Along My Travels 2

On the topic of encounters, and friends I have met along the way, come another two tales that serve as a record for the variety of beings that a vampire may encounter during their long lifespan. I remember another special being I had met serendipitously while living on the eastern side of the country at the time. One evening, while walking the streets, the scent of pizza permeated the air. It was s strong and tempting, being that I had been wandering for quite some time and felt quite hungry. It wasn't unusual for me to spent hours of the night just wandering hoping some random clue would appear before me, while searing for my brother. I decided to follow the scent and it led me to a back alleyway. When I rounded the corner, I could see a figure, but not just any figure. It wasn't quite human. I could tell by their outline, that they had wings, large wings. I was hesitant to approach at first, as obviously, they were not human and could pose a threat. But the smell and the curi

Friends I Met Upon My Travels 3

 While I could go on about the many different humans, mythical creatures, and on humans I have met during my travels. We'll end off with two more friends that I have met recently. Nighttime is a great time if you are looking to meet or find a being that isn't human. It's the time humans tend to not like being out in the most, plus its harder for them to see and discern what they are seeing. For those that have supernatural eyes, nighttime, is the time you can see the wonders of spices and beings that hide from the human eye.      One evening, I happen to come across one such being. Now, being that I'm a vampire, and also searching for something I don't think I'll ever find, it's not uncommon for me to go out into the wilderness or just plain wild places, where people aren't likely to be, hoping to encounter someone that might have some clues. I had been searching a particular area for a few weeks now. I knew enclaves and homes to mythical beings, can oft

Introduction Lore ~ Part 2: The Escape

Image
The next evening Roland had made up his mind. He was going to free Yuna and let her run away. Figured he could come up with a reason to convince his father how she had escaped and would just take the brunt of his anger. He just didn't like the idea of her being trapped there. Roland went around to all the working familiars and servants in the castle and gave them tasks that would keep them busy and their eyes off of the cellar. Once they were busy, he went down and unlocked the cell that Yuna was in. He quickly opened the door and told her to step out. "What's going on?" She asked, just staring at him. "My father should be back tomorrow. I'm letting you go. I'll lead you out the back way and take you to the crossroads down the mountain. Then you can find your way back to the village and get what you need and leave the area." Roland responded. He then grabbed Yuna's arm and lead her towards his father's study, where the secret exit was located

Introduction Lore ~ How it all Started Part 1

Image
 As many are aware, I am a true day walker. I'm sure many are wondering how it came about that a vampire of noble descent and a lowly day walker chose to be together. Between journals my father wrote and left after his passing, and the persistent questioning I would do towards my mother. I am able to recount a clear picture of how Akio and myself came to be. Below is the story of Rolan Zaros, 1st in line of the noble vampire house of Kieran and Yuna Endo, a relatively uncommon day walker: It was a typical Friday evening, when Rolan had come to visit his father, Count Zaros at his castle. As the 1st in line and eldest son, he often visited his father's castle to help with family business and attend vampire soirées held at the castle. It was the end of the month, so this would have been the 2nd of usually two visits to his father's castle each month. Unlike his siblings, Zariah his older sister and Danesh his younger brother, Rolan did not live in the castle with his father.
