It was a mountain hugging, winding road, with a sheer drop on the opposite side into a valley so deep that the bottom could not be seen for a translucent veil of cloud cover. It looked like something from a fairy tale. And it might as well have been, because it wasn’t a road that appeared on any map.

It was the road to Dante Febere’s castle.

The only reason that the contingent of travelers with their various vehicles could access it was because they were expected. The reason that the roads to reach it were so steep was that it existed many feet above sea level, in a gap between parallel dimensions whose geography was superimposed over that of the first dimension, made visible as an act of welcome to the weary visitors on their pilgrimage.

Dante Febere was a handsome blonde male energy with a neatly manicured beard . He looked to be in his mid thirties. He had an air of dignity and a regal bearing. He was a vampire, but he was not a vampire in the usual sense. He had no need for human blood, but fed on pure energy , which he extracted without muss or fuss from any creature’s natural magnetic field surrounding their body. He was famous as the only entity that had figured out how to move in and out of different dimensions, not only personally, but taking with him his castle and all the attendant grounds surrounding it.

The favor that Dante was granting the V-net vampires was a huge one, especially considering that he was not actually an occupant of the same dimension except occasionally. Rumor had it that he had been born a human in the third dimension, somewhere in Egypt during the dawn of civilization. Dante had been a high Zoroastrian Priest.

Accounts varied on how he became a vampire…most of the legends related a story of how Dante sacrificed his own humanity by volunteering to take his youngest sister’s place as a sacrifice to the vampires plaguing the city in which he’d resided. A vampire leader had taken a liking to the brave and brash young man, and Turned him instead of killing him, treating him as an adopted son.

Now Dante Febere was one of the most powerful trans-universal entities. It was rumored that he could even control the weather and the tides. His estate only appeared in the temporal realm when he deemed it necessary.

Most of the time he did NOT deem it necessary. He was making a notable exception to harbor the fugitives from the Midwest.

He had advised the leaders of the V-net that he was only interested in offering permanent residency to a few of the humans and vampires that would be staying with him for respite, and that those that stayed on a more permanent basis would be hand selected by none other than himself. That pronouncement had caused a sort of pandemonium, with rumors flying wildly. To both the phylums, human and vampire, the idea of finding sanctuary with Dante Febere was the best case scenario.
