When Blood Runs Cold

[MATURE CONTENT] A vampire's love is a dangerous thing. Beautiful and fiery, dangerous and domineering. A perfect lover, and, a perfect killer... 'A vampire is the world's perfect predator,' I was once told. 'Seduce you with a smile, a wink, a caress of your cheek, a kiss on your lips. Then they will rip your wings off with their bare hands, leave you flightless; yet in their tight embrace of death, enchanted, you would not even struggle. Not even as they drained each thick drop of blood from your pulsing veins. Vampires are as masterful as they are cruel, they would like nothing greater than to play the overlord in a game of life and death, of love and lies. To them, you are a trifle, a plaything to tempt and toy with. If you think you are anything more, then you have already fallen for their trap.' If this is true, it would take him little under an hour to have me dead. I should have been dead weeks ago. Maybe, I already am.

Azrael's plan for the souls of power

Azrael had taken hold of the eternal flame, that has been no secret to me. Through my own sheer willpower I have managed to puzzle together the pieces of his actions, but never got so far as to figure out his plan. It had always seemed to abstract: what could the eternal flame do for Azrael that his powers, or a wizard could not? 

As far as I know, it helps to create and sustain life, an artefact that helps keep the Folk of Faey thriving and surviving through disasters and doom, along with its counterpart that resides within the foundations of my people. It gives us angels our power, maintains our strength against the vampires, fills our souls with magic. That was why it was so imperative that I retook it for my kind, before we sunk to little more than an empty husk of what we once were.

I think on that second, until my heart slowly grinds to a stop. If Azrael has the Eternal flame… oh no oh no oh no.
