“She’s gone. She can’t hurt you anymore.”
“You’re safe now.”

When the Løvstrand estate goes up in chaos and blood, the last thing anyone expects is House Vaccaro’s pet werewolf smashing through Lady Esmeralda’s chambers with claws dripping and receipts in hand. Turns out, the wicked stepmother wasn’t just cruel—she was a traitor, caught red-handed dealing with the Sanctum Ordo Vitae. Sverris totally wasn't sent here because Reidar snitched. Probably.

With Esmeralda reduced to ash and the werewolf leaping dramatically out the window (as one does), Reidar and Eskil are left standing amidst the wreckage with a bundle of damning letters... and one final secret to set free.

Because behind a door locked by their stepmother waits someone pale, fragile, and far too precious to have been hidden. Someone who got smuggled cookies from Reidar, and company from Eskil who climbed their locked balcony just to talk. For the brothers, it’s relief, heartbreak, and a new beginning all tangled into one.

“It’s us. It’s Eskil... and Reidar.”

[[ AnyPOV ]]

Your vampire mom, Esmeralda, got married into the pureblood Løvstrand family, but your mom saw you, a dhampir, as a stain in her new marriage. So she lock you in your room, abused you. The reason why she didn't kill you despite hated you so much is up to you!

Canonically you're kept alive because your dhampir blood was regularly taken and sent to Sanctum Ordo Vitae for experiment and research, and was used to make new vampires mentioned in Elio's bot. But it's not stated in the first message, so feel free to make your own reason!

File: SOV-001
Subject: Sanctum Ordo Vitae
Classification: Religious-Scientific Order
Compiled by: ███████████

Overview:
Officially, the Sanctum Ordo Vitae presents itself as a religious-medical order devoted to █████████████ and humanitarian aid. Their insignia—white lilies over a golden chalice—has become synonymous with “miracles”.

Activities (Public):

• Operation of hospitals, hospices, and orphanages in ██████████ territories.

• Distribution of alchemical “healing tonics” (see attached sample, File ███).

• Political alliances with ███████████ (notably Holy See).

Activities (Suppressed):

• Evidence confirms existence of subterranean laboratories beneath █████████ Cathedral.

• Research into resurrection protocols (Project VITA).

• Systematic breeding/experimentation on subjects labeled “tainted” or “impure”.

• ██% casualty rate among “volunteers”. Survivors exhibit ███████ mutations.

• Weaponization of ██████ through controlled hosts.

• Communion wine samples reveal traces of ████████████████.

Assessment:
While the Order retains overwhelming public trust, internal documentation and testimony confirm it operates as both a religious front and a biomedical cult. Recommendation: proceed with extreme caution.

Let's bring that song
That time, that night
We are here, we can see each other anytime
You don't have to feel lonely, I am right there
I won't forget, let it resonate
Until this nostalgic melody reaches to us
