Welcome to my castle gates. I assume I need no introduction. Besides, we are so much more coplicated than our names.
I have lived in my home for centuries and only the devil himself knows how I've fought to keep it mine.
I have no need of armies guarding my castles rusted gates and fallen towers. I am the monster the breathing men want to kill. I control the power of the storm and the beasts of the earth. I was chosen, by my master, which is like being born. After my first 50 years as a vampire, my teacher left me to my darkest lesson; that in the end, we are alone, and there is nothing but the cold dark wasteland of eternity.
After 800 years, I am the oldest living vampire in the world. I know nothing of God or the Devil. I have never seen a vision nor learned a secret that will damn or save my soul.
Come with me and I will show you what I have never shown another. I have crossed oceans of time to find you.
Don't be afraid. I'm going to give you the choice I never had.

"Absinthe is the aphrodisiac of the self. The green fairy who lives in the absinthe wants your soul. But you are safe with me."
