Diana : Fifth Generation Gangrel by Book 1

Chapter One

I was born on a small island south of Britain, the product of a good and pious woman. My mother came to this land without knowledge of the language or the customs. New, she wandered the land in searck of knowledge and food. Set upon frequently by man and beast alike she made her way through the wilds almost perishing on several occasions. One fated eve she was set upon by several ruffians, robbed, raped, and left for dead. Although she has never admitted to me that the attack took place nor has she ever spoken ill of how i was conceived. A dear family friend did some years ago tell me the story of how after the attack my mother wandered in a state near to death until discovered by a truly good man and taken to the Hold where fromst he did reside. He, a Duke and Lord of the island, took her in and welcomed her amongst his people and made her one of their own. He and the others like him healed, supported, and trained her until, after a time, she became a productive member of society.

Chapter Two

I was born during these days and as the child of a citizen was given all the attention one would desire. I was however always aware of the fact that i had no father as the other children did. I would always feel the pressure associated with being different from those about you. My mother, always true to me, tried in vain to make for this sense of loss. She was the doting type, always seeing to my needs and trying to teach me the ways of the virtues to which she had subscribed and which led every facet of her life. She would play with me for hours in the yard of our palatial home. During these same times my mothers friends, the Lords of Serpents Isle, educated me in the skills of the warrior, fencing, tactics, parrying, and more. When later I would leave, I would be quite adept at these skills as well as those taught to me by the huntress, stalking, tracking, hiding, and stealth. These, combined with skills I would later learn, would prove quite deadly to my foe.

As time progressed I became more and more aware of the land arouund me. The others I had known from birth, many now in the service of the King or pursuing their path amongst the clergy, had grown away. I found myself alone with my thoughts.

Chapter Three

I began to become more and more discontent. My mother would attempt to force upon me the virtues of the land that she had taken as her own, but I felt them lacking. Something was wrong. I would travel about the island forests with the alligators and gorillas, the giant and silver serpents had become my teachers and guides. I could see from their lifestyle and movements that thecreator had intended a different life for all things living than one of blind obedience. The lesson I learned from the corpser fly was that of simple disobedience. When cast upon by the spell of paralyze this docile creature would begin to move. From this time forth I began my life anew, a secret life, ever studying, ever learning. There was no way out no turning back my soul
