Hello Grandmother,

It doesn’t take a whole lot to claim you’re the lord of darkness. In fact, in the vampire world, it happens quite a bit. It’s the convincing of others of this that makes one unique. The vampire lord who came to call himself Lucifer was more than just a hedonist; he made sin and debauchery a way of life for the vampires who surrounded him. He made tormenting the establishment something outsider vampires could admire.

He’s been gone a while now, though. But his followers remain. And the truth is, the vampires aren’t any clearer about what happens after your gone than humans do. Which means, for all they know, he really was the devil and he really did go to back to hell to build his armies, and take our world. But, from what I understand, he really didn’t do a whole lot when he was here. Is that really what the devil wanted? Come to earth and mess around for a while and then go home? I’d like to believe that evil is better than that. But then, I’m an optimist. So we’ll see what this trial gets us. Whether his followers really believe enough to do something, and whether there’s really some external force in the universe that’s backing their play.
