Disclaimer: Ok ideas are mostly mine except for a few ideas from other books and movies which were the inspiration for this story. Character names are mainly mine except for a few (such as Eliwood) these names I do not own and give all credit for their creation to their respective creators. I am not making any money off this just for fun!
Prologue
Vampires are an ancient race that has always been misunderstood by society. Many of the myths surrounding the race are just that, myths. Contrary to common belief, vampires can walk in the sun light, they are not harmed by garlic or crosses, they are not mindless killers, and they can have babies. While vampire children are rare, they are not unheard of, but since there are so few of them, the children are cherished and highly protected.
Since the beginning of time, the vampires have always remained neutral in the battles which were waged in the land of Illiath. Keeping to themselves and staying within their kingdom's borders insure that they were left alone. It is because if their seclusion that all the myths about them arose. Since few had ever seen a vampire, people began to make thing up about them in an effort to fill the black void of mystery surrounding them
Over the decades and centuries, different leaders of different respective armies have journeyed into the vampire's territory trying to get them to join their sides. Some of those times, the leaders came back not even remembering why they went in, other times, they came back and simply reported that the vampires refused to help, and yet other times, they never returned at all.
While wars have been waged and won or lost, the vampires remained always dark and mysterious. The last war had been long and had finally ended when the elves teamed up with the humans and other magical beings. Now the land had been at peace for almost forty years. This peace is not to last, dark creatures and evil magic have been stirring to life once again in the Shadow Veil Valley. A war is imminent and shall shake the very foundations of Illiath. As for the vampires, their neutrality is at an end.
