“Good Uncle, I hope this letter finds you in good health.”

I write to you with great unease. The creature I have spent the last twenty years studying, the Ramanga Deamhan known as Lucia, has done something that disturbs me to my core.

She has made another.

I am certain of it.

I do not know her reasons. Perhaps it was the loss of her sister, Aula, who took her own life by stepping into the sun. Perhaps it was boredom—for what else could drive a being of such unholy nature to create another like herself?

Either way, I was witness to the event. I could do nothing but observe from a distance. Even if I had wished to intervene, what could I—a mere researcher—do against Lucia, whose veins carry a thousand years of power? Even the mercenaries in our employ would stand little chance against her.

The girl survived the transformation. That, in itself, is a rarity.

But the true horror followed shortly after.

On the night of her rebirth, she killed her own mother. Lucia, as if to balance this act, slaughtered the girl’s father. A grotesque family tragedy, orchestrated by something older than time itself.

I shall continue my research. But I will do so from a distance.

There are some things that even the Brotherhood cannot control.

Send your prayers, dear uncle, and be in good cheer.
For these creatures may be terrifying, but surely, our God is above all.

Case Notes

Primary Entity: Lucia – Ramanga Deamhan, estimated to be over one thousand years old.

Newly Sired Subject: Unidentified Female, later confirmed as Anastasia Human Origin: Born Auerelia, 1565, London, England Sire Date: 1592, Age 27

Lucia has remained under Brotherhood surveillance for two decades.
She has shown no prior interest in creating offspring—until now.
The newborn displayed immediate violent tendencies, murdering her own mother within hours of transformation.

Lucia killed the girl’s father simultaneously, completing the severance from her former life.
This was an intentional act. A clean break.

Subjects are to be tracked at all costs.

Current Status & Orders

Surveillance of the newborn is to be maintained.
Direct engagement is prohibited.
Mercenary intervention is to be authorized only if she becomes an immediate threat to Brotherhood operatives.

Final observation:

The Brotherhood has observed many newly sired Deamhan. Few display such immediate and calculated violence.

This one is different.
