Summary of the previous episodes:
Viorel has been tortured by his
supposed family who wanted to have him burn in the sun. Strangely
enough the sun didn't burn him as expected but Viorel has no memory of
who he is. Following the advises of his supposed father, he left
Sighișoara and is now traveling to the West. After some skirmish in a
previous city, he found refuge on a boat. Viorel is now in Vienna. The
little problem is that the guy at the inn was a bit of an asshole
and helped capture Viorel thinking he was a vampire, which he is but
nobody needs to know. Now there is a huge man (which I call the colossi)
taking care of Viorel and a priest. They brought a girl. Torture my
holy water... Fail. Viorel managed to confuse everyone, now he would
like to get out of here. But the girl seems pretty useless. They still
managed to escape and he left the girl to the care of the boat lady
before going back to have two words with his captors but his power of
persuasion were failing him. The priest wanted to crack a
deal but Viorel is not really up to help his enemies. He finally got
some blood but he can't risk to stay in Vienna. He travel to Linz were
he stays a bit to learn German.
Viorel wanted to go to Praha but redirect himself toward Augsburg
instead where he wants to get a horse, except that the horses are a bit
scared of his vampirism and maybe something else. Viorel is really not a
horse expert. Then he comes into an altercation with couple of people,
he wants some fear in his blood. The girl Viorel has found seemed to
enjoy the game. Viorel prepares for the nightmares that come with a
feast of blood, in a rush to leave, he cross the dukedom of Lorrain.
We introduced Sorina, three weeks after the beginning of Viorel's escape.
Viorel dreamed of Sorina and woke up not really remembering anything.
Traveling to Paris, he arrives at "La cour des miracles". He is rescued
by a stranger who turned out to be Nicolas Flamel, the alchemist he was
looking for. Nicolas does some strange experiment without Viorel's
agreement. Some people are looking for Nicolas's secrets.
On the other side of Europe, Sorina awakes and Viorel's past in haunting him.
Now, let's continue with Vampire Heart, right where we left of last week.
“She
will be dead the day you will see her dead body, not before”, he
said.
I
didn’t know what he was trying to do but his tone of voice was more
aggressive than usual. I wondered if that was one of the effects the
stone had on people. Not only rejuvenating their body but also
working on their mind.
“Why
are you saying that?” I asked getting angry despite myself.
“Because
you are changing your mind all the time, once you want to be dead,
once you want revenge, you can’t progress toward the future if you
don’t know what you want”, he yelled at me.
I
stood up to face him. I couldn’t bear any longer having him telling
me what to do or how to feel and I started to yell back at him too.
“I
know what I want. I want her and only her. She is all I always
wanted. Now there is no way I’m ever going to see her again so
don’t go telling me how I am supposed to react or what I’m
supposed to do because without her nothing is important anymore and
my life has no meaning.”
“So
go kill yourself that way she would have died for nothing because you
are still unable to face your fears…” he started yelling again
but I interrupted him.
“There
is no meaning in death, people die for nothing everyday and nobody
remember them ever, after a while they are just gone”, I said
walking away.
He
shook his head disapprovingly as I looked at him one last time on my
way out.
“If
every death needed to be so meaningful, why would you have tried so
hard to escape yours”, I said.
Perenelle
put her hand on my arm to try to keep me here.
