Kalmarden Timeflow

[Sage]

--VonHagen Estates - Kraven's Duties: The end of fall was coming, and Kraven received orders from the Mistress to make preparations for the coming Harvest festivities as well as voicing her desire to Turn two children, to dull the boredom she suffers from in the coming Winter.

--The Ballad of a Boy Named Suicide: Suitable children are scouted and coerced by Kraven. They are Turned at Anabel's Estate, and the male, Edicius Selbstmord proceeds to lose. his. fucking. mind. The home is damaged in the outburst, and tremors shake Kalmarden, alerting the Lycans to trouble. The female, Sophitia, sparks jealousy in Anabel's favorite, who snaps and attacks the pair of them, result in her being condemned to death at Kraven's hand; after extensive experimentation. Kraven is wounded in the ordeal, and a brief moment of role reversal between Kraven and Anabel leads to a shift in the status of their relationship, causing it to lose some of it's strictly professional nature.

Foreign vampires appear as guests to deliver some troubling news. Mutants have begun to spring up in the deserts of Xexoria, and they are feeding on other full-grown vampires in the night. It is decided that there will be an expedition to retrieve a specimen.

Timeline notes: At this point, Curiosity and We Weren't Meant to Know occur at the same time, briefly. Nova travels to investigate the Valley, while Blythe, Anabel's former favorite, is experimented upon in Kraven's dungeons.

--We Weren't Meant to Know: Kraven's second, Captain Rakhaev, and his assistant, Rinald, begin their experiments with Blythe. It is discovered that Rinald favors Blythe, and she begins to soften to his presence as they work together, despite the torturous circumstances.

--Curiosity: Kraven welcomes Nova, and asks for her assistance with Blythe, due to her healing abilities. Tension between Rakhaev and Nova mounts early on, and Rinald is forced to watch, unable to correct his superior. Kraven is called out to deal with a crisis, killing Edicius' eldest brother, as well as capturing a second mysterious child who was with him. In the meantime, an incident occurs between Nova, Rinald, Blythe, and Rakhaev, and Rinald is forced to kill Rakhaev. He is revived by Nova, and imprisoned, stripped of rank and House.

Kraven and Anabel's relationship deepens after he attempts to explain himself after she wakes, the night after the accident. They hold up in his home until almost dawn, when several newcomers make their way onto the scene. Bartholomew Van Buren, the First Lycan, and an Ambassador from the Far Isles. Much is discussed, and before Anabel goes to sleep, a secret about the child discovered earlier is revealed.

Timeline Notes: At this point, we decided to skip ahead to the next night with the thread 'Forget Me Not,' which takes place the next night, during the Full Moon. However, afterward, 'Mixed Emotions: Honor and Loyalty' follows Nova and Rinald as they learn more about one another after the sunrise, and on into the day before the Full Moon. 'Meeting of the Minds' brances off from 'Forget Me Not', and follows Eijin and 'A'.

Mixed Emotions: Honor and Loyalty: After Anabel and Kraven leave the lounge of his home, Rinald follows Nova into the night, and speaks with her until morning, where they decide to spend the day together, discussing life and duty as well as getting to know each other; they discover they mesh well together.

Forget Me Not: An unnamed vampire girl referred to as 'A' crashes to Dystopia during the night of the Full Moon, and is encountered by several hostile forces. Kraven's elite Guardsmen, a stranger from Algeroth on a quest to find her brother, Ambassador Eijin, and even a Werefox make their appearances on werewolf territory that night.

--A Meeting of the Minds: I'll uh...add notes on this when I read it. > <; As well as any notable timeline difficulties that might come up.
