                                                  Terra Australis/New Holland 

                                                             March/April 1550

                                                 "The Trade of The Century"

          After 300 years of the Vampires being overrun by Mer-Folk and being threatened by the human like dogs; King Vladimir Kohl set his sights on making a deal with the King of the Ocean Poseidon Mileseki. 

          Vladimir and his Coven of undead lunatics meet King Poseidon of The Kingdom of Audra on neutral territory, Kangaroo Island. The only place there has been Mer-Folk and Vampire sightings in the same area since the early 1200s, back when Mer-Folk were the most dominant Species; but were cast down by the mysterious human-dog hybrids.

          "What is it that you propose Vladimir?" King Poseidon's strong husky voice erupts from the waves crashing onto the shore. Vladimir and his friends shift their focus to a Tan muscular man with greyish-blue hair riding in a water carriage.

          Vladimir doesn't pay any attention to the rare Albino Dolphins carrying the water carriage. His eyes focus on the brunette beauty sitting next to Poseidon. "Who is that magnificent woman?" He asks his friends in awe of her otherworldly beauty.

          They shake their heads uncertainly. "Who's to know?" A short scrawny guy, standing next to him says. "She is a beaut." Vladimir's right-hand man says.

          The creatures of the sea help Poseidon and his companion out of the carriage. Vladimir and his friends are dumbfounded when they watch Poseidon and the brunette beauty transform into humans as they get out of the water!

          "What is this meeting called for?" King Poseidon's light greyish-blue hair flows with the whirls of the wind.

         "My Clan and I have arranged this meeting because we seek to make a bargain with you and your Pod..." "I mean Kingdom." The tall lean Vampire corrects himself.

          Poseidon, the King of the Ocean stares down the Lead Vampire and looks into his dark black eyes.

          Vladimir feels the intensity in the King's stare and muster up his answer. "We come seeking as much sea stone as you are willing to part with."

          King Poseidon scoffs. "For what is the meaning of that?" King Poseidon shoots at the Creatures of the Night. "And for what are you and your creatures of the night willing to give us in return?" He questions him.

          King Poseidon looks next to him and grabs hold of Amphitrite's hand. "You can't take my wife." Poseidon's voice was cold and harsh, but powerful and raw.

         The Lead Vampire, Vladimir Kohl chuckles at Poseidon. He winks at Amphitrite. She rolls her ocean-blue eyes in disgust.

         "I wasn't asking for her." Vladimir states. "It has come to our attention that your people are being hunted and killed off by humans and that ungodly dogman creature."

         Vladimir shifts his steely gaze to King Poseidon. "Our people are being mauled by a new enemy, the Witches called Lycans. I know you loath our kind, but our longevity and immortality are much greater than yours. I know it is a thing that everyone seeks. Without us, your kind and all other kinds will wither away forgotten."

         King Poseidon looks at him in disbelief. "That is blasphemy." His voice raised, causing the Dolphins around them to make a few noises. "Our kind doesn't need your kind to survive. Other kinds wouldn't dare to converse with you either. Never on the Great Mother Ocean's deathbed will I allow your kind to mate with ours. That is what you are insinuating is it not?" King Poseidon glares at Vladimir, his eyes intense.
