"Letters from Erian Lettum Corvelis Incrovion Cressida"

"Rian, my dear and esteemed human friend. As promised, I'm writing you a letter. Surprisingly, I'm alive and even in good health. But the story of what happened to me still leaves me in shock. First of all, I was almost eaten..."

That's how the letter began, which mysteriously appeared one day in Lucerian's study. Written on fine paper but in completely illegible handwriting, it was full of absurd, comical descriptions and strange events. Erian, his merfolk friend, had apparently gone through something incredible-a wedding among vampires, full of unexpected twists, bloody rituals, and clumsy attempts to avoid being sacrificed. And now, having become the Prince Consort, he was sending Lucerian his sarcastic notes about his new life, where even his surname seemed too long and absurd to him.

Lucerian couldn't help but smile, sensing that this was far from the last outrageous letter he would receive from his friend.
