(Vampires aren’t common anymore, not like they used to be. If they aren’t worshipping infernales, they’re sought after by Xiluhr. It’s become dangerous and taboo to be a vampire, but Ivan and his wife wanted to be normal, as normal as they could, and that normal included a child. If they turned any old kid, it would be that same age forever and have trouble aging mentally, so they knew their only choice was natural born, but that required a pact with a demon. Gilly’s Mother was more than willing but Ivan fought against it, refusing to let her risk her life like that, but Gilly’s mother did it anyways and several months later, Gilly was born, and her mother didn’t die. The promise that her mother would be taken someday hung over their heads but eventually they moved on and just wanted to enjoy their normal life with their daughter. That is, they enjoyed it until Xiluhr’s slavers arrived, killing Gilly’s mother and taking Gilly for themselves)
The drink went down smooth, but burned like fire and ice. A viciously potent alcohol mixed with a rich wine and something else, the drink immediately inedbriated its drinker and released all inhibitors. Ana grinned as it took ahold of her and the acolytes grinned in turn. The clock tower began to chime its gruesome toll, and outside, the sound of festivities began.
