Vampires don\u2019t fall in love. Except I did. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Not the best decision of my long life. I definitely cracked an unspoken line, but Ariana trounced me as far as line-crossing went. Very few acts constitute crimes in Vampire circles. Hers was the worst. I fled to the Old Country to buy myself thinking time.<\/p>\n

I still loved her, but what she\u2019d done was so vile I couldn\u2019t set it aside.<\/p>\n

The world is a very different place from when I went into stasis. I woke to wars on every side. Vampires are scarcely strangers to battle. No one\u2019s ever accepted us, but they\u2019ve mostly let us be. It\u2019s different this time. Very different. Mortals won\u2019t rest until they\u2019ve wiped out magic.<\/p>\n

Normally, their efforts would be laughable, but they\u2019ve coopted help from mages. Ones they\u2019ve imprisoned and systematically stripped of power until the poor sods would agree to anything in exchange for their freedom\u2014and their magic.<\/p>\n

We face huge problems, but I\u2019m tackling them one by one. I\u2019ll return to Ariana\u2019s side, but perhaps only as her comrade-in-arms. Time will tell if we can be more to each other.<\/p>\n

Time and circumstances. In a world without magic, Vampires will wither along with every other magic-wielder. I cannot let that happen.<\/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
