(I think this would be a good time to start with the overarching plot I had in mind. Just a beginning though. So expect something in my next post.) Finally Mitchell spoke up. "I'm last then. I met Mathias just after the second world war. I was a German refugee, having been forced to work for the nazi's with my alchemical research. I'm sure you've heard of Hitler dabbling in the occult. Well, he also researched into vampires. He even had the remains of the legendary Vlad's wife. We didn't get far though, because of the limitations of the technology back in those days. But I did invent a narcotic that even kept vampires unconscious for a good hour or so. Anyway, I was labeled a nazi myself, but Mathias supported me in front of the elders, knowing I had worked under Hitler only by force. After that he offered me a safe haven in his territory." Mathias added a little more. "It wasn't just because I knew of his situation, but also because I knew his research was highly valuable. He's actually one of the people that worked on the team that developed the darkened windows in my sun room, so we can even watch the outside through windows during the day." Once everyone was done eating, so Gerald came with a new suggestion. "How about some entertainment? He asked, pointing to his house. "I have a large white screen, a projector, and several hundred movies." Mitchell shook his head. "Can't. I've just begun research into the properties of the genes of the elders. So I want to continue with that." Mathias looked at Evon. "How about you go pick out a movie? We can have our meeting afterwards." The night was still fairly young, so there was still plenty of time to do that. They had only just arrived after all.
