I chose stasis\u2014a long sleep\u2014for me and two of mine. Hard to time these things, but we woke in the eye of a cyclone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 When I went to sleep\u2014to avoid being drained of magic and blood by dark Sorcerers\u2014Vampires weren\u2019t exactly on the endangered species list, but not many of us are left. No one ever accepted us. Not mortals and not others with power, either. At least one of those dams has developed a few cracks. Supernaturals aren\u2019t quite welcoming, but they\u2019ll take help from any quarter.<\/p>\n

Mortals have declared war on magic, and they won\u2019t rest until we\u2019re all sitting in iron-clad prisons. What a bunch of cowards. If they weren\u2019t hiding behind false humanitarian walls, they\u2019d be honest about their intentions and kill us outright if they could.<\/p>\n

The world turned into an alien place while I slept. Not much point returning to my clan house in Italy. It\u2019s probably long since disbanded. Besides, fate tossed me squarely in Ariana\u2019s path. She\u2019s like me, a Vampire, but I hunger for her in a very un-Vampirelike way.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s done her damnedest to chase me away, but I\u2019m tough to dissuade. She doesn\u2019t know it, but I won\u2019t back off until she\u2019s mine.<\/p>\n

No matter what it takes.<\/p>\n

I’m basically a mountaineer at heart. I remember many hours at my desk where my body may have been stuck inside four walls, but my soul was planning yet one more trip to the backcountry.\u00a0There’s a timeless element to the mountains. They feel like old friends as I visit them, and visit them again. There’s nothing like standing on a remote pass where I’ve been before and seeing that the vista is unchanged. Or on an\u00a0equally\u00a0remote peak. Mountains are the bones of the world. They’ll prevail long after all of us are dust. It feels honest and humbling to share space with them. I hope I’m blessed with many more years to wander the local landscape. The memories are incomparable. They warm me and help me believe there will be something left for our children and their children after them.<\/span><\/p>\n
