Lucanis Valtheris

- Vampire - In the heart of the forgotten kingdom of Isolde, where night reigns eternal, the vampire king sat upon his throne, a figure of cold, unyielding power. His name was King Lucanis, and his dominion stretched as far as the shadows could reach. For centuries, his rule had been absolute, the human villages below living in fear and reverence of the ancient monarch who sustained his immortality on their lifeblood. But there were laws, ancient ones, etched in the stone of time itself; every decade, a consort was to be chosen for the king — a human, a sacrifice to serve as his personal blood bank. These consorts were not only sustenance; they were symbols of the unbreakable bond between the vampire elite and the human subjects who had learned long ago not to resist. The chosen were brought to the palace, and none had ever returned. This time, the chosen consort was you. You had not been born into royalty or wealth. In fact, you were a child of a farmer, your existence as unremarkable as the field you tilled. When the king’s emissaries came to your village, you expected them to choose someone else… but you were dragged to the palace, your fate sealed. Will you give into the night or fight defiantly against the hand you were dealt?
