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. Viorel discovered that he can change into a wolf but that's not
the easiest thing to handle. After finding out that a younger version of Nicolas might not be acting
with his best interest at heart, Viorel decides to leave for the north.
He is now traveling with two people, Alexej who needed to get out of
Praha and Irina who he accidentally rescued.

The ancient of the village came soon after me. They didn’t come to the castle often, even when they came, there was always a risk of one of them being taken as a slave, but his time, they didn’t have a choice, the matter couldn’t be settled between humans, it wasn’t a matter of the blood taxe increasing too much to be bearable as it often happened during winter, it was about the new comer and the blood tax being disrespected entirely. The fact was, there were too many vampires in the area now, the blood tax was too low to be able to feed them all and with the killings the number of humans to feed from was decreasing dangerously. Had I been my uncle I would have open the castle gates for a while like the human rulers used to do when the cities they were protecting were under attack but my uncle didn’t see it that way. For him the death of few humans was nothing, he hadn’t seen the scene at the villages and he didn’t measure the extend of the loss like I had done, he could only laugh at their demands and they left the castle bitter. I was only when tonight had come that my uncle saw what had happened. The humans refused to be drunk from. They had gathered in the center of the village, all of them. They had made a large circle with the woman and children in the center as if that would protect them from the vampires. It was hopeless but it was enough for the vampires of my clan to feel the need to do something. My uncle passed the word that the tax of blood would be increased as soon as the other vampires were gone. That we were going to protect the humans but that they needed to be prepared to pay for it.
“We will pay what we have too, but if you want blood you need to make sure that you will have living people to suck it from,” the chief of the village had said.
My uncle had moved behind him faster than he could have seen and the man felt on the floor with a broken neck. There was no way my uncle was going to take someone talking to him like this, especially a human. A wave of panic propagated in the crowed but the humans didn’t move. My uncle made a move and we all followed him to the inn where the British vampires had gathered at the beginning of the night. The meeting was in my observation a complete disaster and I was running now to get Sorina out of trouble. After the human gathering she and her mother couldn’t hide without getting in trouble with their own people. They had gathered in church at first but had decided that even in the house of god the vampires might come to get them and that they would have more chances of survival if separated so after praying to their god, they had come home. Sorina was crying when I arrived and it broke my heart.
