DARK BROTHERS OF THE LIGHT
I. Blood Rites
II. Blood Heresy
III. Blood Dawn

"The Darkness hunts us and the Light does not want us. Better to
step willingly into the fires than to live undead. Better to die with
honor than to take a life in the rites. Let each mon go to his own path,
but these are ours. And these will always be ours, for this is what we
were born to. This is the path the gods have given us, for we are the
Dark Brothers of the Light. We are the walking dead who live, for our
lives were forfeit with our birth. Forfeit twice over for our choice to
live as myn, not monsters, though we are forced to dwell among the
monsters. Set yourself apart in your words, in your deeds, in your
silenceтАУalways in your silence, for silence is your castle. Be as still
as the deer in the forest, and if you are fortunate the predators will
not notice you. For when they notice you, they will eat you."
тАУCreed of the Dark Brothers
Once there were three brothers, Brandrahoon the vampire, Isranon
called the Dawnhand, speaker to spirits, and Waejonan the Accursed,
first of sa'necari. Isranon defied his brothers and was destroyed, his
descendants forced into the darkness.

BEWARE THE BEAST
Fear the night my darling child.
The Beast-she hunts where no one walks.
Anksha-demon of the wild.
No mercy there for those she stalks.
Akin to noneтАУthough human seeming,
Beware her clawтАУlest ye turn pale.
Though the Bitch of Brandrahoon's preening
Can never hide her furry tail.
All Sa'necari fear her wellтАж
She feeds alike on those, and man.
