History

The Founding of Weerhousen

Main Article : Weerhousen

The Founding of Weerhousen We are the true gods of this world. We need to show the world what the gods of this world are capable of. Today we stop. Today we take ourselves a new home.

“If I kept going there was no question he would die. I needed to make him a home, and at the same time I knew it was time for Lahmia to be reborn.” — Angelica Neferata With their new home chosen the Lahmians begin to look at expanding outside their own fortress of Lahmia City where they had made their home base and out into the regions around the city. This expansion was ordered by Queen Neferata of whome while being the figure head of the expansion was delegating the tasks of the actual operation to her Dukes of which Abhorash, and Ushoran would take the lead in this way. The two devised a plan where in Ushoran would use diplomacy and skilled civil management in order to annex different areas that were in the area, and while this was going on Abhorash was preparing the military of the Lahmians in order to militarily defeat the humans if they resisted. In the area there were only two major forces of resistence in the form of the Dutchy of Krieger, and the Confederacy of Gregior of which the Dutchy of Krieger was rumored to be quite powerful and led by an effective leader in House Krieger. While Ushoran moved towards the Confederacy of Gregior he sent Vashenesh and Hercuso to the Dutchy of Krieger where he hoped they could get them to submit easily and avoid any bloodshed. He would also send Fadil Heratee to the realm of Ravensburg where he would be ordered to meet with the leadership of that region in House Constein. Confederacy of Gregior Main Article : House Gregior Situation in Weerhousen Second Stage of Weerhousen Foundation Fall of Krieger 1/3 The Confederacy of Gregior was built around its powerful House Gregior of whome controlled a large tract of a region east of Lahmian City, and they also had a vassal Kingdom in the city state of Crailsheim which provided them with economic, and manpower to fuel their growing realm. When Ushoran arrived in the Kingdom he was quick to buy off sell swords, and other people with swaying loyalty and from these people he learned of whom the power brokers were in the realm of which every person seemed to direct him towards House Gregior and its charismatic heir Breven Gregior. Ushoran was very impressed when he met Breven and he realized very quickly that he could save thousands of lives if he were to convince Breven to simply take his people and join with the growing Kingdom of Weerhousen. Ushoran used the only tool he had at his disposal after his bribary was rejected when he threatened to kill the entirety of House Gregior if he was not listened to. Breven called his bluff and Ushoran reluctantly heeded the words of W'Soran who told him he would make Breven understand that they meant business when they were discussing matter. W'Soran would absolutely annihilate nearly half of House Gregior after he and several of his Nechrarch Vampires used Magi to warp in demons to attack and kill members of House Gregior. Following this event the two would meet again and Breven realized what he was dealing with and he allowed the annexation of the Confederacy into the Kingdom of Weerhousen. Ravensburg “My Queen let me prove my worth to you at Ravensburg. Let me go on my own there and I shall prove to you that Lord Aborhash, and Lord Ushoran`s way of thinking is one that can work. Give me this honor and I will not fail you my Queen.” — Angelica Neferata Ravensburg was the area that Fadil Heretee was sent to in order to pacify and bring the city state of Ravensburg into the fold. He discovered upon arriving in the region that it was very poor, but its most pressing issue was dealing with the constant raids and invasions from the Trolloc dominated forests to the south. Fadil spent nearly two months building up support amongst the populated southern towns, and villages and his growing army prepared itself to invade the Trollocs. The next time the Trollocs invaded into Ravensburg land the army of Fadil was prepared and waiting for them, and the Trollocs were massacred on such a level that the people of Ravensburg begin to clamor for him to enter a control position within the council of Ravensburg. As he and his army made their way north towards Ravensburg they were opposed by a large force led by the towns leaders who feared his influence. The two armies would maneuver themselves for some time while Fadil waited for his reinforcements to arrive in the form of Soren from the Blood Dragons of whom arrived a week later and made his way to the city of Ravensburg which was now undefended and took control of the town under the banner of Fadil's army. With their city in their enemies hand and the people now obsessively in love with Fadil the army of the town begin to desert in massive numbers until three days after the fall of Ravensburg the army was a skeleton force and Fadil would surround the remainder with his force. No quarter would be offered these men and the remainder were massacred and their holdings and wealth distributed to those houses, and individuals that had not joined them and left Ravensburg. Dutchy of Krieger Main Article : House Krieger “Your brother has his own way of doing Vash. He will get the job done but I have no doubt that this Dutchy of Krieger will have far less people in it once he has finished with it.” — Angelica Neferata House Krieger was always going to be the section of Weerhousen that gave them the most trouble as it had a solid, and powerful army that was led by the effective and honorable House Krieger. The conversion of this land would begin when Vashenesh, and Hercuso crossed the border with many of their Vampire Bloodline and made their way to the capital of Krieger. When they arrived on the outskirts they were way lade by the town guard of whom said they could not enter and that a series of tents would be set up so that the council of Krieger could meet with them. Vashenesh accepted this and prepared to lead his men to the area they were told to wait, when all of a sudden Hercuso became agitated about this supposed insult and raised his weapon at the guard commander.

The Trolloc War These beasts are the only things standing between us and our destiny. I will not allow some creatures barely above cattle to slow the progress my people have made, and because of that I want them ruined. Leave no trace of them. Destroy their homes. Destroy their people. Destroy the very memory of them.

War with the Trolloc See Also : Krax With the Vampires staking claim to regions in Weerhousen it was only a matter of time until they upset the massive Trolloc population of the area. As the vampires extended their influence, the Duke W'soran begin massacuring villages and settlements of Trolloc in his constant search for subjects. This got to such a point that the Trolloc of the region begin marshalling under a particularly powerful Trolloc named Krax. Krax beggining raiding local human villages and towns of W'soran, but this was the wrong area to try and insite retribution from since W'soran cared little if anything for the region. As the attacks continued the Trolloc begin spreading to other regions, and attacked a village controlled by the Duke Abhorash. This would be the moment where the attacks of Krax would finally meet resistence as the forces of Abhorash marsheled themselves to destroy the attacking Trollocs. Battle of Hornish Village Seeing his servants under attack and a chance for war, the brilliant Abhorash marshaled his army and moved to the village. When he arrived at the village, he found only a small attack force, and was at first disappointed by the little force arrayed against him. As he approached closer though his force was quickly surrounded by the total Trolloc force. Abhorash's army was surrounded by a Trolloc force that outnumbered his by 4-1, but this only egged him on and he pulled his forces in and prepared to withstand the coming attack. Abhorash was correct and the Trolloc did simply charge the Blood Dragon force. The Ambush Main Article : The Battle of Gurt The war with the Trolloc of Weerhousen appeared to be going without a hitch, and it wasn't until a massive army of Trollocs ambushed Queen Neferata that they realized they were in a very hostile land. While travelling from Lahmia City to Krieger the convoy was ambushed by a large force of Trolloc. The convoy was moving with Queen Neferata, Vashenesh, Hurcuso, and a number of Vash Consteins vampires, so they were almost cocky in their arrogance. The vampires had traveled throughout Europe in the shadows and had been doing whatever they wanted, and this had blinded them to fact that they could be killed. Ushoran said it best later on. "The Queen had taken us throughout Europe, and in those hundreds of years we had killed mountains of people, and stolen an endless amount of things. All this had been done in the shadows. In the secretive way of our lives, the Queen and the rest of them forgot that we could be killed." -Ushoran Vashenesh fought by the side of the Queen, and he held the carriage for more then twenty minutes against nearly two hundred Trolloc, as the convoy was slowly wiped out he became more and more surrounded until finally during the end the Trollocs were slashing him on the back as he couldn't get around to fight all of them. Finally a large Trolloc came in and was able to defeat the severely weakened Vashenesh and kill him with a brutal slash across the neck which left him nearly decapitated. The Battle itself would end with the deaths of every vampire and human gaurd in the convoy except for the Queen and Hurcuso. When the Queen saw her beloved Vashenesh lying dead in front of her surrounded by dozens of Trolloc that were trying to kill her, she wept tears of blood. It is a very notable thing that in a battle that involved her husband, and much of her retinue she spent the entire post battle holding the body of Vashenesh and didn't even go looking for her husband Hercuso who had somewhat fled the battle in order to survive. It was only out of luck that W'Soran arrived and was able to resurect Vashenesh that saved him from death, and Queen Neferata from madness. Retribution

Vampires in Westbridge

Vampires in Westbridge You think I'm happy your sister is dead? You think I like living this way? I dont.

“Meghanna your work in bringing us those slaves from France has been noted by the Council, and you are being rewarded with another task for us. I need you milady to go to the city of Westbridge and bring a message to a Lord Labouef. He is the moral center of the city, and he has resisted our dealings with the Malfoys. Let him know the price of resisting. Do not kill him though. Just make him understand.” — Angelica Neferata Since the moment her vampire brother's and sister's tricked her into getting her lover Jafrey Hemsworth killed, Meghanna was drifting into madness due to depression. Her master Queen Neferata had no idea that she was even upset, so she kept sending Meghanna on missions throughout Europe. One such mission sent her to Westbridge, in order to give a message to Harry Labeouf. Harry had been resisting the black market trade in Westbridge, and because of this Weerhousen was losing some money, so Queen Neferata sent Meghanna to make him understand. “You think I'm happy your sister is dead? You think I like living this way? I dont.” — Meghanna Following her arrival at Westbridge she commands her progeny to scout the town and find out the operations and vulnerabilities of House Labeouf and while they do this she is wandering the streets of Westbridge when she begins watching a young couple of whom share kisses and hold hands walking down the streets of Westbridge and she grows increasingly hateful of this overcome with memories of her time with a past lover named Jafrey Hemsworth. Following the couple to their home she watches them sleep together before as they hold eachother following this she creeps through the window and locking the door from the inside she enters their bedroom and this causes a fight to break out but she quickly murders the young man before she is stabbed by the women in the back but calmly removing the dagger she has a long conversation with the girl. During this conversation she tells Adele how much she hates herself for being a vampire and opens up to her somewhat about the pain she feels over Jafrey Hemsworth, and Adele is uncontrollable in her tears nearly the entire time clinging to her lost husband. Her conversation with Adele Boulet ends with the arrival of Tormund, Sophia, and Sevana Fox and unwilling to look at the girl anymore she snaps her neck before letting her progeny feed on the couple. Following this she alongside her progeny travel into the night with the bodies and they leave the bodies outside the Labeouf Estates along with a note telling Harry Labeouf where to reach them with his response and he is clearly willing to surrender to them when he leaves a note for her in a tavern that they had left for him as the communication spot. Climbing Windows “It all changed the moment I saw her. She was the most beautiful thing my eyes had ever beheld and I couldn't tear them away from her. Surely that kind of perfection could only be a dream. Surely the world would not allow that kind of perfection to enter my life while I was so unworthy.” — Shia Labouef Harry has with the message let the Vampires know that he will not be a threat to them, and that more then just that he will provide them with servants for their needs through the slave markets of Francia. She communicates with her masters back in Weerhousen and despite Harry completely surrendering his will to the Vampires she is sent word to warn him one last time in person, and she does this by sneaking into the Labouef estates where she finds his heir Shia Labouef and after she sees him she passes out, and when she does pass out she enters a sort of dream where she is confronted by Jafrey Hemsworth her former lover of whom we learn she has betrayed in the past. She runs away from him but finds that she has somehow become trapped in what she can only assume is some sort of purgotory. As she is fleeing from Jafrey she meets dozens of those she has betrayed and is forced to relive all the betrayals of her life and then eventually she finally reaches a wall of dead bodies and is unable to get away from Jafrey. As Jafrey reaches for her she wakes up screaming with Shia Labouef holding her. she is still in the arms of Shia Labouef where she has remained since she had in the eyes of him fainted in front of. After he is able to calm her down the two proceed to talk for some time with Shia believing her to be a poor peasent who was just perhaps trying to get some food, and thus despite breaking into his house, Shia begs her to return, and she sees something of her previous lover in him, and both wants to return and never to return. Meghanna would leave with a kiss on his cheek, and then for the next three days she sat on an overlooking tower watching his window, and each night he would look out his window in the hopes of seeing her. On the fourth night she is returning to the top of the building that gives her a good vantage when she is pushed off the side of the tower by Jafrey Hemsworth of which when she hits the water she finds herself within the Veil again and this time she is stuck in mud unable to escape and waits there for hours until finally Jafrey moves to the edge of the mud and begins to talk to her. On the fifth night and horrified over what had happened the previous night she ignores the call of Jafrey Hemsworth and went to the wall of his room, and found a ladder leading up to his window. Going up the ladder she is greeted by Shia of whom is waiting for her to enter and after so long of waiting to see eachother again neither of them know what to say and only when Shia begins to laugh is the silence broke, and his laughter causes her to laugh as well. Spending hours with Shia getting to know him she finds herself ignoring her command to wound Shia, and then as she leaves she goes to kiss him on the cheek but he deepens the kiss leading to the two nearly becoming intimate but a knock at the door forces her to leave through the window but he makes her promice to return the next day. Leaving through the window she wanders the streets where she is joined by Sophia, and Sevana of whom want to know what shes thinking, and talking to her two daughters for all intensive purposes she reveals she will not harm Shia and it is this revalation that they enter the home of Adele Eve of whom lies abandoned since the murder of Adele and has become their nest. Turning Alice “Tell me why you are in my sisters home? Tell me where she is!” — Alice Eve While resting in their nest of a former home to Adele Eve it is Meghana and Sophia that are interurpted from their conversation by the door flying open revealing a young girl holding a sword who they watch as she slowly enters the house, but with Tormund, and Sevena in their coffins asleep in the basement it is only Sophia and Meghanna that are on the main floor and the two confront the angry girl who reveals herself as Alice Eve and demands to know what happened to her sister. Street Fight “He wasn't so much beating the young women as he was killing her. His fist flew into her face with such force that afterwards I was suprised she was even alive. As he rained blow after blow into her the only sound I heard was the laughted of his friends, and the crack my fist connecting with his head made.” — Shia Labouef It was during this time that his rivalry with Gregory Malfoy would reach a different level as he would intervene as Gregory was brutally beating a women in the street, and in return he was attacked by several of Gregories cronies, and as he was beaten the beating was interupted by Meghanna of whom knocked one of the men through a nearbye wall, and then proceeded to unleash her sword and threaten everyone around. Shia at this point go to his feet, and in front of the now hundreds of people would engage in a duel with Gregory Malfoy of whom was also a skilled fighter. The two would fight for some time until finally Shia defeated him and prepared to kill him until he was pulled away by his brother Luke who understood the consequences if he killed Gregory.

Vampires in Westbridge

“We decided without much thought that despite we believed in their motives it would be best if the people didn't find out about them. Whatever their loyalties were the people wouldn't accept them as anything more then monsters, and we had to accept that too.”

— Shia Labouef

With the relationship between Meghanna, and Shia Labouef continueing despite his knowledge about what she was it was simply a matter of time until others came to know the truth. This would happen when a servent overheard accidently struck her with a knife when she was cutting food, and the wound healed faster then it should have. The servent would alert Harry Labouef of whom would barge into the room with many armed men where Meghanna leapt to protect Shia and was nearly killed during the exchange but Shia was able to stop his father from killing her. Harry would confine her to a cell, and despite Shia's constant attempts to have her released, his father feared greatly for Shia's life and refused everytime no matter what Shia suggested. The confinement lasted for weeks, and as this went by Shia would visit her in the prison, but watched constantly by his brother Luke Labouef he was unable to feed her his blood, and her pain grew increasingly bad as time went onl. Meghanna would begin to starve, and as she started to die her progeny's would sence her death knell, and arrived in Westbridge, where they broke into the prisoner, and were nearly able to get her released at the cost of killing several gaurds, but Meghanna resisted this saying the gaurds hadn't done anything and didn't deserve death. Harry watched alongside his personal gaurds as this happened and changed his opinion of her nearly completely in one single moment.

“I just wanted a life. I didn't want to hurt anyone anymore...”

— Meghanna

Hearign from the gaurds what was happening Shia broke though the gaurds placed on him to keep him away and barged through his brother and hugged Meghanna deeply. Tormund Fox would come forward with a vial of blood smuggled with him in case they were not able to find live bodies, and she was fed while Shia held her in his arms. Realizing watching his son that his heir was deeply in love with this girl, Harry Labouef would stop fighting her, and while sending away her progenies Meghanna was brought back to strength using the blood of animals, and as she healed she grew on Harry of whom saw how much she loved his son. Meghanna, Shia, and Harry would come to an arrangement where Meghanna would be sworn into House Labouef and act as a part of the Honor Gaurd, and would be allowed to stay within the city as long as they did not feed on a single drop of human blood, and despite the resistence of Tormund Fox they would all agree to this becoming known as the Red Foxes of Westbridge.

Meeting a Daughter I am so sorry my daughter. I would have never abandoned you had I of known.

Meeting a Daughter “Roslin do you think my mother is sorry. Do you think when she looks back at what happens here she will look back at it with sorrow. I wonder Roslin if she will look upon any of this as anything other then an annoying setback.” — Lucie Lovie Following the attempted Coup in Stor Roslin Stor XII. would return to the capital with Lucie Lovie of whom told her everything she could about her life, and everyone was called to a council where they were told that they had the oldest child of the King of Lucerne in their hands. Following this discovery there were many in the council who begin saying they should barter her to the Lucernians, and this charge would be led heavily by Terad Ereham who had been implicated in the Coup attempt but had returned to the fold after its defeat. Roslin argued that if they did that William had shown he would never forgive the slight, and the weak willed Terad wilted under the pressure of Roslin's words and agreed with her idea of simply giving Lucie to the Lucernians asking nothing in return. The failure here of Terad to gain anything would further poison the mind of his son Tristifer Ereham III. to his father and would be the final straw which led to Tristifer turning completely on his father and taking control of House Ereham. “My King I have a letter for you. My King the letter is said to be from a High Lady of Stor. She says shes writing in regards to your daughter Lucie.” — Jasper Hale While Lucie Lovie was being sent to Storhold and the letter was on its way to Lucerne the situation in Lucerne would be quite peaceful as the royal family prepared for the birth of another child of the main branch through Bella Swan and William Lovie, but as this was happening the lessening of the corruption of Morrigan would lead to a major reveal. William Arrival in Westbridge “I looked out over the side of the boat to the docks and saw a crowd larger then anything I had seen in a long while. Nobles, and their men all crowded around, and my first thought was what they were doing. My first thought was never that they were there waiting for me. It just didn't make sence.” — Lucie Lovie Running From a Monster “You have to die.” — Viggo Vortisson Arrival in Fairmarket “When we return Lucie I want you to understand one thing above everything else. Our distance. The time we spent apart. I wish that I could take it all back and you could be right by my side. The people you meet in Lucerne, they are by and large good people, but they all have their own wishes and desires. Some will see you as a marriage target. Some will see you as a threat. Whatever happens, and whatever is said I want you to know one thing. You are my daughter. You are my daughter and I love you.” — William Lovie III. Leven and William await with many of his children as the boat of Lucie Lovie pulls into the Fairmarket dock, and she consoles him as he gets nervous about seeing her. As she arrives before he can say anything of any real substance she is taken into a hug by Ashley Lovie of whom is followed by Thomas, and William also hugging her but Riley stands back beside William and is unwilling to hug this new claim to the throne. William decides on the advise of Lucie that they will return to Lucerne as quickly as possible and Leven and William stay the night together and then after that returning by caravan back to Lucerne.
