Rebecca, Hamlin, Jacob, Victoria, and Serge sat around a table in the Manor's study after sunset. Rebecca closed her eyes and smiled before speaking. A revenge more than a century in the making. "I'm sure you're all wondering why I've called you here tonight....

Even without her heightened vampiric senses anymore, Rebecca could smell the stench of decay in the valley when they arrived. In retrospect, it was partially her own fault for staying, though she also wondered how much of this was from experience. "Victoria, ...

Diana woke in a damp basement. She had been sent to spy on the Duchess of Lichfield, and everything had seemed to be going well for several weeks. Until she found the first letter she sent back under her pillow, with a mark on it. She was being watched, but di...

Rebecca was in the middle of dinner when Sergei entered the dining hall. This alone was unexpected, as she thought he had already left for the night. Even more unexpected was when he came over. "Please come to the dungeon when you are finished your meal, Duch...

Victoria found Heather in the smoking room, but he wasn't alone. No matter, this couldn't wait. She went right up to him and began shaking him, yelling. "The prisoner! She's trying to hang herself! She doesn't know we aren't going to kill her! You have to sav...

Rebecca was sitting at the foot of the bed when Diana woke up. Woke up? But I should be dead, she thought to herself. "We'll have no more of that, Diana." Rebecca said, snapping her fingers. Her irongrip vines sprung up and held Diana gently, but firmly on th...

Retrieving the two boys was a simple enough matter for Sergei. The guards never saw him coming, and now they would never see anything ever again. Opening the door to the room, the intelligence reports were correct. Two teenage boys tied up and gagged. He remov...

Sirene had managed to quite expertly wrangle everyone in the tavern and inn into a single room, with Vaust only having to subtly expand the space to do so. Vaust wasn't sure where she managed to obtain the chalkboard, nevermind the chalk, but decided to just g...

Can be seen and spoken to by Dwarves. Elves can see them but can't hear them. Rusalki and the Fey can hear, see, and touch them Can't touch anything except Rusalki and the Fey Humans who've had near death experiences can talk to them but can't see them Ca...

Males can just eat regular mortal food, eating humans/dwarves/etc. is optional Females can only sustain their life force on sapient flesh, will slowly weaken and die otherwise When males mate with human, dwarf, or elven females, male offspring are always t...

They belong exclusively to Vordea The other Gods aren't even allowed to borrow them from her Names always have an X somewhere in them Have demon and mortal forms Love games View torturing souls as just a job Like to talk to the souls they're torturing ...

Rebecca found herself at the Gates of Hell. In retrospect, she was glad she got to die of old age and Heather was not forced to kill her. She wondered where the rusalki went when they died, but that didn't seem to matter now. The Empire was in good hands, she ...

King Xolarand peered at her for several seconds, and then smiled. "Well, if it isn't the Ashen Empress, at long last. I, King Xolarand, welcome you to Hell." Rebecca bowed before speaking. "I greet you as an equal, Demon King. I presume this is my final judgem...

Rebecca watched with interest as ink began to drip down from the ceiling of the room, as a woman she hadn't seen in over 30 years dropped down from the ceiling, in her beautiful form fitting black dress, with gloves that rose all the way to her shoulders. The ...

Agbus felt it even all the way up in the Crystal Halls. Vordea had created a supremely powerful demon, possibly the most powerful one she ever had. "Is that a demon or a God she made?" He asked out loud. "Feels like it could be either, Lord." An angel said t...

Xellma thought it over for a bit, before deciding judging souls was what Xolarand was best at. He quite expertly wound her up simply by asking questions and making a few comments, after all. He certainly wasn't cut out for torture by his own admission. This le...

Xellma regarded the wretch in the cage with interest. He groggily looked up at them, and suddenly an idea came to her. She snapped her fingers, and both the cage and chains disappeared. The man looked at her as if she was his saviour, causing her to laugh wick...

After spending several hours torturing worthless wastes of sapience, Xellma remembered the other reason she sought out Xalgaman. "I need to attend a funeral, Xalgaman." Xellma said, as they continued walking through the grassy plain. "Oh? whose?" Xalgaman as...
