I will only say this once but if you have not read Legacy of Kain: Renewal please do so. Don't forget to review as well. Legacy of Kain: The Hunters is part two of LOK:Renewal. Please enjoy the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own Kain or his sons or Nosgoth for that matter. I do own the made up characters since they are from my imagination alone. The plot of this story is also mine and hopefully I can rest my case.
******************************************************************************
About 125 years later since I became a lieutenant things like war broke out. The Sarafan were not happy that the Citadel was now were my clan resided. To be honest it didn't take much to convince people that I wasn't going to force people into being a vampire.
In fact children of all ages had come to me so that they could run away from their problems. It was as if becoming a vampire was an escape route for others problems. In the end I had them go back home to discuss it with their parents. Again maybe that is why the human populace trusts me. I don't like to force people into another existence. Although I had to admit that Duma, Raziel's brother thought I was being to soft on human-kind.
If I was being soft then Kain sure didn't care because he certainly didn't say a word to me about it. I think Kain lets his lieutenants do whatever they please in their own territory. In other words since Zephon likes to torture his victim's before feeding. . . I guess it was normal I mean after all I was the leader for my own clan but . . .I still had to abide by the no-evolving-ahead-of-Lord-Kain scenario.
Well, anyway the days were getting to be interesting due to the brawls with the Sarafan and all. In fact they were starting to get on my nerves lately due to there incessant pop-ups. I had a feeling that Raziel was not amused with the whole lot either and if the Sarafan were not stopped then Lord Kain would then be notified. I mean how often do threats of Sarafan attacking my clans get around. Hardly ever because everyone thinks I can handle it after having had such a battle with another a vampire such as Turel. The fact that he went traitor on everyone was a shock and a low blow to Kain.
Although if I remembered correctly he would be back but not right away. The Elder that is giving him advice is actually Moebius and therefore someone you would not want to mess with. However there was still the fact that the Reaver absorbed part of Turel's soul therefore inheriting the ability to force-evolve any creature or being. But! Since the Reaver belonged to Kain no one else had that power to wield but him. I would not be to surprised if he evolved himself in his private chambers. I almost had to wonder what he would look like after the change.
Right now I was sitting in my own chamber going over how to protect my children from the pesky Sarafan. If the Sarafan were not done away with soon my clan might not survive any longer. In other words I and my clan would become extinct.
Sighing I surveyed my room with little interest. I sat in a very comfortable armchair that was fairly new seeing as it was a gift from the human craftsmen named Darren. You know not to long ago I found a way for people to live longer without having to become vampires. All one had to do was eat healthier. Proper nutrition was essential for growing boys and girls. Schools were also erected so the children and many others could learn the basic skills of learning so that they could survive from day to day without hindrances.
In front of my chair crackled a fire-place where I sometimes dose off. Even now I felt drowsy from the heat of the fire-place. Must stay awake! Other then my chair and fire-place I had a bed to one side of the room with a dresser up against the wall nearest the bed. The walls were made of stone and sometimes got very cold during the winter months. Although Duma's territory was always filled with snow and biting cold winds that made even me shiver.
To my utter annoyance the door to my chambers opened with a loud bang as one of my children rushed in.
"Mom! Please, I'm sorry for not knocking but this is important. The Sarafan are attacking the Citadel again and this time they have bigger weapons." One of my newly turned children said. Her name is Danielle and probably one of the only people to be the loudest in getting news to others. In other words she had quite a big mouth.
As quick as a flash I leaped from my chair and out the door before another word could be said. I ran so fast that not even my children could rival me even if they were a distance runner before becoming a vampire.
Upon reaching the battlements I saw what Danielle had meant about larger weapons. Cannons now stared at the entrance of the Citadel and would eventually break the doors down. However this was not what got me angry. What got me even more angrier was that the fact that someone was leaking information made me mad enough to even rival Kain's temper. Fortunately I had a backup plan.
"Attention, everyone!" I called out to my brood. They all stopped what they were doing and turned in my direction. They were waiting for my signal or some sort of direction to follow.
"First of all, I just one to say forget plan A and move to Plan B. Remember this, if I find the person leaking information to the enemy I will personally make sure they have a public execution. Now that said, everyone get to work!" I bellowed out my orders to my children. They hastened to reply and as for me I was heading for the stables where Plan B would be.
Finally reaching the stables I opened the door and was met with bright red scales and....my secret weapon.....
