Dawnwalkers

From the journal Coen keeps.

Dawnwalkers, like me... Who are we, really?

We carry a vrakhir's fang in our hearts and share some of our creator's powers, but we never fully transform. During the day, we're still who we used to be, as if nothing happened - and it's almost possible to forget...

But then, at night, the hunger kicks in. The rabid beast wants to be fed... An unnamed god demands a blood offering...

Will this kill me, eventually? Make me lose my mind, forget who I was? Am I damned? Beyond salvation?

Words it uses

  • VrakhirA vampire, singular. The plural is vrakhiri, and the game writes both in lower case. Coen's night shape is the vrakhir form.
  • The CourtThe in-game menu that tracks Brencis's regime: each vassal's anger, your Infamy, and the Edicts in force.
  • The ManumitThe rebellion against Brencis's regime. Crake is one of its leaders.
