It’s coming.
So here’s a small teaser!
Sylum Inspiration: Hansel
Ehre/Weisheit: Advisor
Hansel remembers his parents as kind and brave. His dad got Hansel and his sister, Gretel, out of the house to safety then went back for his wife.
Only to have them both tragically die for ‘worshipping’ Satan.
Hansel and Gretel, alone in the woods, wandered towards the big house that their parent always said was safe. While in the woods, they were confronted by the ‘big bad wolf’. Hansel protected his sister, who ran off and ended up finding William Tell, the Hunter who was looking for them.
He scared off the ‘wolf’ and took them to the Von Trapps.
They were raised with the knowledge of Vampires, and excelled in Georg and Maria’s care. As they got older, the two siblings became close, neither really interested in finding a husband or a wife. Georg trained Hansel in his business, teaching him to read and write. He traveled to other villages to check on families and their crops.
On the way back he ran into ‘the big bad wolf,’ and this time there was no Hunter. He held his own fighting him off, only to go down with one good blow. It was his sister’s yell that had the wolf run off.
Georg found him and he just smiled. Hansel always knew he would end up Turned.

Sylum Question: The Answers!
About a month ago on ‘National Ask A Question Day’ – I set it out for everyone to send in questions and I’ll answer.
One of the main questions was – When is Colosseum Event coming?

But I will say the logistics is being worked on and our mirrored closet doors is covered in notes and connecting points for this specific story.
Sylum Inspiration: Alp-Oehi
Weisheit: Caretaker
Alp-Oehi always lived in the mountains.
He took care of the area, herded sheep, and worked the land for its resources. His wife gave him two sons, and they lived a long life together. She’s buried further up in the mountain always watching over him.
His sons moved away, making lives for themselves and never came back to see their father.
He had seen The Von Trapps travel through the passes many times, and when a snow storm came in early, he set out to make sure they got through.
It was the next winter he felt the cough settle in. When Georg invited him into the family home, he sensed the illness in Alp and asked him if he wanted to be Turned.
