Its time to train. And I am a no bullshit kinda girl when it comes to training.<\/p>\n

Called out to Va’lis, telling him to bring his armor.\u00a0 Of course when he saw me on Ichabod in full armor, he knew.\u00a0 It was time. I have to ensure he can fight against us; the Earthen vampires. It important that he learn how to counter the vampiric abilities that we have.\u00a0 The Draconians have them,\u00a0 and used them against him, so better be prepared.<\/p>\n

Right off the bat, we started with the Mind Gift. It’s a tough gift to break but like everything, it has it’s weaknesses.\u00a0 One of which is distance. The further away your target it the less you will be able to impact your actions on it, thus … in fighting it, distance is key.\u00a0 It usually takes 20 meters to be able to break free of it.\u00a0 So if you get caught in it, move.\u00a0 Also it takes focus and concentration to use the Mind Gift, thus if that is interrupted… well you can guess the rest.<\/p>\n

So I went at him, freezing him in place a short 5 meters from me. Of course, he growled and groaned… to no avail.\u00a0 The night went on and on testing range and Ichabod knew to test my interruption; which gave him the chance to practice enough to get my range down pat.\u00a0 I told him he’d need to do that with every vampire, as the range varies.<\/p>\n

We finished off the training with some hand to hand combat training, and I must say, Va’lis needs help in that.\u00a0 Without his magic, he’s in trouble.\u00a0 Of course, he’d like to have all of us believe that there is nothing that cannot be done with magic.\u00a0But we cannot solely rely on the external assistance of magic or gifts. If they are hampered in anyway, we’re left with our hands…. and that is something that all my progeny learn.<\/p>\n

After a long night of consistently… beating each other up,\u00a0 we headed into the Broken Mountains.\u00a0 Sparring always sets me off.\u00a0 Ask Marius.\u00a0And… of course the bond\u00a0heightens those emotions. So Va’lis and I ended up horizontal on the\u00a0cave floor, naked.\u00a0 I’ve started to show him a more animalistic side of me,\u00a0 which seems to completely turn him on.\u00a0 He wants more of me every day, and I feel the bond intensifying.\u00a0 While I love the bond between us and the walls that seem to be crumbling down, I worry that we’ve become so close that when we break this bond, it will throw us both into depression.\u00a0 A depressed vampire is a dangerous one.<\/p>\n

Marius has me giving him double doses of my blood and soon he will be attempting the Kickstart Serum on Va’lis soon.\u00a0 I am worried.\u00a0 So I’ve taken extra precautions and have been secretly escaping to the Throne Room.\u00a0 Of course,\u00a0 Akasha and Enkil are complete statues right now; dormant as they should be.\u00a0 But Enkil has taken to certain movements when I am around, there seems to be a bond forming with our King.\u00a0 If anything he’s curious.\u00a0 It has allowed me to speak to him, tell him my worries… he seems to listen because he’s letting drink from him.\u00a0 I am not sure if Akasha knows… but if she does, she hasn’t destroyed me yet.\u00a0 I know its a huge risk, but for Va’lis I’ll do whatever it takes.\u00a0 I cannot loose him now. Not now, not ever.<\/p>\n
