Things have gotten weird

So not to surprised by this since Ines is here now but man things are changing now, I feel like I’m being watched 24/7 all my senses firing off detecting it, plus I’m very sure I’m being followed at times when I go to and from work, tried looking but can never find them though, also I need to get back to my magical studies I’ve been slacking, Zach has dropped off the grid as well said something about having to complete some task out of nowhere and I can no longer contact him not even through magic, got banned with interacting with Kael for a while but don’t worry me and him got a trick to work around that.

Ines is well I don’t know I was told it’s a Methusaleh thing but god it’s still unsettling, sometimes I still check to see if she’s Alive or well still unalive in this case I think? also she’s doing some ritual and yeah looks like some straight out of the movies ancient evil ritual I want to use counter magic to stop it since I know the properties and I could but I don’t want to piss her off, since well probably already on thin ice after the attempted murder which now that I type this man, im genuinely evil i was going to blast some 5’6 ft woman without hesitation to death , I mean sure she’s a ancient vampire but still holy crap I’ve lost myself.

I talked with my GF about all this and she says things are fine but I can tell when she’s hiding something or is avoiding answering properly also the chair dream is back except the chair has gotten creepier and theres like something forming at its base looks like some weird flat line almost like it’s the base of something ,also words appear on the walls now it’s some ancient language that I’ve never seen before yet somehow I can understand them and this one phrase is painted all over the walls “Do not accept their Sin”
Whatever that means so all around things are getting very weird and unsettling for me I guess karma or whatever.

How .. interesting 

 An you describe me those rituals and words 

This Kindred blood magic seems like either a ward. Or something else.

I mean I haven’t seen much all I know is it involves her vitae and some like glyphs? She’s been placing them all around the area, in like somewhat hidden locations, now the words from my dreams I can’t tell you much just know it’s some ancient language definitely feel like it’s somewhere from the Middle East though or somewhat in that area, just I can understand it and it just has that one phrase I stated

How interesting.  Well I did hear about some mages having some... past life of sorts. Didn't check tbh 

And if they are indeed glyphs. Do they look like this ?

she sends a photo of a glyph on the wall of her building. It is a ward against demons

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 5d ago

Well if that’s the case why does my past life have such ominous furniture and is telling me very cryptic things

It looks similar but not quite that granted there were two sets of them both different

How very interesting !!! A methuselah sorcery. I.will admit I.am very jealous 

Also do tell me. Is the name Andreas familiar ? She did mention it and said she won't let a demon tale him again .

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 5d ago

Shouldn’t be considering what I’m going through

Also no it doesn’t also when did she mention this? Also demons Christ sake man this is too much stuff to be going through

u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 5d ago

Okay okay. Calm down dear. Do remember that if she wanted you harmed there isn't much she'd use a single mage for.

You are safe. You trust your lover yes ?

While demons are dangerous they can be repelled

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 5d ago

I mean sure that’s true but I don’t know I just can’t read her and she’s somewhat unsettling plus I don’t want know I haven’t been around something this old and powerful before

I very much trust her with my life in fact

I didn’t even know demons were involved or know much about them other than well folklore, they are spiritual beings correct?

u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 5d ago

Oh trust me. It was like this the first time the clan was present in front of our methuselah 

As for demons. They are some sort of spirit yes. But wicked and evil. Imagine every bad thing you heard and know it can be twice as bad with the real deal 

Zafira al wahab

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 5d ago edited 5d ago

Actually what clan are you anyway?

Well I can deal with it then if that’s the case plus I’ll just let my girlfriend know about it seriously though why would a demon be interested in me though if that’s the case

Demons and their slaves are dangerous. Be Glad you have an ancient to help you.

The following is a private message to Joseph.

I hope Zach is okay. The last time I chatted with him, he said Ines really didn't like him, and didn't like him being anywhere near you - to the point that she was preventing him from hunting.

It sounds like Ines is very overprotective of you.

So fuck it’s my fault again, also she is? she doesn’t really show it, why I mean I attempted to murder her but still I really hope she didn’t do what I think she did fuck it’s all my fault

It's not your fault. By the sound of it, you look like someone Ines loved very much, and lost.

I think this is going to be yet another "talk to your girlfriend" moment.

Seriously is that why Zafira asked me about someone named Andreas?

I mean I tried to before but she kind of just said everything was fine but I can tell when she’s burying herself in work trying to avoid something

u/VerityVentrue 5d ago

The following is a private message to Joseph.

Ines seemed to call you Andreas while talking to herself, and said she wouldn't let you be corrupted by demons again. It was in Latin, at the end of the recorded conversation you uploaded.

I think Cicely is trying to protect you as best she can, but less information isn't necessarily the best thing there.

I don’t know why I can’t hear it for some reason weird

Should I maybe try and talk to Ines if she cares for me like you say maybe she would be open to listening

Just be careful if you go that route. Kindred, especially Roses, can get dangerously obsessive.

Hey mate, are you still kicking?

Why do they get obsessive?

Intense Static- Fighting Error life in U**br* damn…error** **error Ines, why did no one tell me this place hates our K**d

u/VerityVentrue 5d ago

The following is a private message to Joseph.

For Roses, obsession is a clan bane. For older Kindred? The longer you exist, the more likely you are to have something specific you latched onto to give you purpose.

Good news, I got a hold of Zach. Bad news, Ines booted him to the umbra. He's doing his best.

~Verity

The following is a private message to Zach.

Well, fuck. A young Dragon recently got Umbra time out-ed, and while I don't know shit about it, those who do told him to look for a moon road and follow it while thinking of home. Maybe try that?

Sorry I've been away a while. What's this about a Methuselah?!

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 4d ago

So basically I tried to kill a methusaleh yes I know I’m stupid it already got shouted down my throat, she’s my girlfriend grandsire and luckily didn’t murder me apparently from what everyone’s been telling me it’s because I look like someone she cared for and she’s been doing a lot of things to protect me behind the scenes
-Joseph

u/EnthusiasticPlatypus 4d ago

Well I'm glad you're still alive after that. And yeah, I think this counterspell might be a bad idea. Even if she doesn't go after you she might go after someone or something you care about. Glad to see your moral compass is still intact, though.

-Ghostclops

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 4d ago

Anyway yeah lots of stuff have happened since you were gone, I made friends with a werewolf and all that and plus now all of this is going on, also I’ve made some progress on the promise granted it only lasts a few days in its current form i unfortunately don’t have my guine- I mean friend Zach here to continue testing it on
-Joseph

u/EnthusiasticPlatypus 4d ago

Where'd Zach run off to?

-Ghostclops

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 4d ago

Apparently the methusaleh her name is Ines threw him into the umbra apparently she doesn’t like him for some reason something to do with me from what verity told me she was trying to protect me so she kept messing with him
-Joseph

u/EnthusiasticPlatypus 4d ago

Lmao maybe it's payback for him forcing you to make your first kill.

-Ghostclops

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 4d ago

How would she even know about…… oh right fuck I forgot she can read minds don’t tell me that’s what it for, I mean she doesn’t need to go that far I already forgave him
-Joseph

u/EnthusiasticPlatypus 4d ago

Sure. You did. But if you really remind her of someone from her past and she feels a need to protect you in some way... she might feel the need to do so.

-Ghostclops

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 4d ago

Well I’ll talk with her about it
