Author's Notes
Why am I here?
I know. My last note made it seem like I was retiring. I thought I was but let me tell you. I was in a bad mood and I jumped the gun. I would sooner cut off my demonic infest evil hand before giving up writing Castlevania1 Forgive me and disregard any previous statements saying I was giving up Castlevania. Sorry.
What is this doing here?
For those of you who visit my site [long quiet pause. Birds chirping] you may have noticed a note that I am currently revising my first fic Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness. Why? To fix some errors, tighten up continuity between my stories completed/and in the works and with the Castlevania universe in general. This particular fic you just read I wrote in one day. Its purpose is to answer some questions that I felt needed answering. In the first place it explains the mess that Konami made by including not just one but TWO Dracula battles in between Symphony and LoD thus screwing my assertion that Drac needed a new body because Alucard kicked his vampire butt bad. This fic also explains why in Circle of the Moon the true heir to the whip is a Baldwin and in LoD its Schneider and how Nathan Graves fits in. My theory here [or at least my version in my universe] is that in 1822, 8 years before Circle, Morris Baldwin [age 35], Michael Schneider [age 34, Reinhardt's father], William Graves [a friend of Baldwin, father to Nathan], and possibly an elder Richter went to Drac's castle and whooped him ine more time. Eight years later an older Morris takes his son and his buddy's son, Nathan on an adventure to Drac's castle in CotM.
Lastly, if you read my previous fic Blood Under the Moon [shame on you if you didn't] Dracula put a curse on Reinhardt's in order to make him age prematurely. IN this fic, Reinhardt's son, Werner, stabs Drac with a sword stained with Reinhardt's blood. This causes Drac to absorb the curse through the blood and thus making him age too. Thus 9 years later explaining why in Bram Stoker's novel, Drac is an old man who needs blood to look young again.
Got it? No? Good!
