All is Fair in Love and War

It was a war, A bloody, gruesome, wicked war. It was the war against the Vampires and the Witches.

For a long time, witches had lived among the human race, concealed in the villages, performing their acts of vile mischief behind closed doors and drawn curtains. Apparently Humans and Witches had three distinguishing factors that set them apart.

1.       Humans have no magical qualities or prolonged lifespan. Witches have evil magic and live for centuries unless they are killed.

2.       Witches radiate a powerful presence. The feelings of chills down your spine, or hands gripping your throat, or inability to breathe are common symptoms.

3.       A witches blood is dark or black and tastes incredibly rich compared to that of human blood.

The Witches were feared and hard to catch, but they were nothing compared to the Vampires. The Vampires took another tactic, enslaving Man-kind with their vicious brutality. They were at the top of the food chain. They were the rulers of earth, no human nor could Witch surpass.

For a race that so fiendishly took hold of power, they treated their subjects with lots of compassion and kindness, giving them an illusion of hope, that all would be okay. Humans were taught to despise the Witch-kind and worship the Vampiric race. Very few knew of the real bloodshed and horror behind the ongoing war between the two humanoid species.

The war had been going on for a century was seemingly coming to a close. The witches were dying out, vanishing off the face of the earth, and Vampires took their rightful place as leaders. Humans obeyed every command and quite often offered their necks to the vampires as sacrifices. While it was possible to drink from a human without killing them, they rarely survived. The vampire kind was known to be greedy, and saw humans as worthless, foolish creatures.

At least the Vampires and Witches had this in common. Humans were weak, with easily swayed minds and struggling hearts.

The Witches watched on in frustration as their kind was wiped out.

 It was the end.

 Or maybe, it was just the beginning?
