this is a story of the decay of good intentions and the way compassion festers, of the incompatibility of reality with ethics and the madness this realization sparks. a boy of ghost-like disposition, taken from against his will one night while visiting his father's grave and left with a bite-shaped scar on his wrist as a result, becomes consumed with the creature that inflicted it; a vampire. taken in by the talamasca for his knowledge of medievalism and linguistics to maintain the archives, this quiet and diligent student, now with access to everything that has ever been written and documented about vampires and other supernatural beings, learns all there is to know about them... and a thirst for knowledge becomes a personal vendetta, a morbid obsession and an ill-fated revenge.
