Festival of Brumalia

A Day of Venus Cleanse

(Chloe was offered to the Goddess Venus, blessing the sabat with another wonderful week )

Sense Brumalia falls on a Sunday we will celebrate Dionysus, the god of the grape harvest, wine making and wine, of ritual madness and ecstasy... while keeping true to our Sunday tradition of honoring Venus during the Venus cleanse. We will offer specials, such as the Redemption. A brief prayer to Venus will be given at 12pm. The rest of the specials will last the entire day. 


I pray, come and crush a cup of wine with the Karnsteini's on this wonderful day!  

Profile: Estelle I. D'Auvrecher

Kind by nature, playful, gentle yet cruel if felt threatened, often lonely when quiet, strong willed, enjoys freedom very much and always love to be in own world but will want to know what was going on around at times. Always love to mix around with people, including humans. Being a sociable person and not intending to reveal her real identity unless if necessary, she will always try to help anyone in any way if possible.

Raised in the family of Bourdekin, daughter of Duke of England, who was also a member of the high courts, and Maureen, a lady in waiting of the French Queen, she grew up in a peaceful, monotonous environment. Long black hair, fair and delicate skin, together with beautiful yet hypnotic pair of crimson eyes, which was extremely rare in normal families, defined the mysterious aura. Rumor has it, that perhaps she was the child of vampires, for her eyes spoke of the devil that was hated by all. Words soon began to spread, making it more difficult for her to socialize.

Playing piano and Violin, singing, dancing, painting, social and dining etiquette, as well as arts of language were her forte. Attended every formal ball with them if possible and always wandered around the nearby gardens, spending time painting the scenery or even practising singing skills that were taught by a tall, charming and talented young man - her favorite teacher, as well as the man whom she wished to marry in future.

Strong stench of blood lingered around the house after she returned from her usual walk one day. Scouting around the house for a bit, she rushed to the bedroom straight after and saw the stranger who resembled the person she once knew, holding onto her mother's body whilst her father's on the floor motionless; blood dripping down from his teeth, or rather fangs which the heartless creature had. Horrified, she covered her mouth, trying not to make any noise when she witnessed the gruesome scene. Tears could not express the disappointment and anguish.

Sensing she was right behind him, he slowly stood up, turning his body and made his way towards her. Eyes were fixed on hers, fearful yet nonthreatening, as if an elder brother was looking at his very own sister. Pushing her against the wall when close, his cold hand brushed against her right cheek, caressing it. Lifting her chin upwards, he looked at her tenderly, gently pulling her over to his arms, face closing in to the neck. Loud squelching sound could be heard; fangs piercing through the surface and deep into the veins. Gripping his sleeves, she stared into blank space; eyes squirming and mouth opening a little. Moving away from her neck to mouth, he pressed his lips against hers, kissing it tenderly yet firmly, with blood still dripping. Enervated, her vision gradually blurred out, falling over like a rag doll and being carried up like a sleeping baby.

Found herself lying on a big rectangular stone table in the middle of the hall after a long slumber. Weak as she was, she gathered her strength and sat up, feeling something different at the same time. Walking towards the large mirror hanging by the wall, blood red crimson eyes and sharp teeth could be seen in the reflection. Short blurry memories were flashed across as she stood still; with people whose eyes were like hers, so familiar yet so strange, and unknown places she had been before. No words could explain the confusion and uncertainty going on in her mind. Unable to handle it, she knelt on her knees in disbelief, screaming and shouting while attempting to figure out her real identity, human or vampire.

Cooping herself at one of the bedrooms in the mansion for the next few days, she felt suffocated, trying to control the beast within. Right in front of her stood the man who had changed her, or rather back to who she once was. Looking at her with dark cold eyes, his neck was leaned against her mouth without hesitation, as if he could read her mind. Couldn't resist any longer at the smell of blood, she pounced forward and bit him. For the first time, she enjoyed the sensation of sucking blood. Streams of tears went down her cheeks as she fed on him. Memories of her past became vivid and permanent; an offspring of the D'Auvrecher, a royal vampire family whom got destroyed centuries ago. A smile could be seen when she looked up to the man, knowing she has found her true family, the man of her life, her brother.

Venexia; city of the livings and the undeads, hometown of the vampires and humans, her one and only home.

News!

I have both grave and joyous news!




Today, Lady Danielle was attacked! A letter V was craved into her chest... and by who you ask?! The Leader of the Vorden! I here by give all members of our coven permission to seek out and attack this man! I ask our most skilled fights to take charge! 


After drinking the blood of our elder, Countess Camellia Karnstein,  Lady Nena was able to heal Danielle after the horrible attack.

( Lady Danielle is healed by the Vita from our elder )

As for the good news? This eve we welcomed Lady Lakshmi into our perverted coven! I would also like to thank Diva Nena for performing on her Lute! We concluded our festivities at the baths. Once Lakshmi had been given more suitable attire, she was able to formally join our perverted coven. 

Letters

For those who do not know, there was a recent rape attempt. Sir Godryck, the victim, was assaulted by
two ladies of the Karnstein house. Here is Queen Dinky's letter, and my reply follows it.

My Dear Lady Liang !

Something very disturbing was brought to my attention. One of my dear children, the honorable Gentleman Sir Godryck was lured by women of your Bordello and forced to strip naked, chained to a cross ! We speak of attempted rape here !

As you know, I was always enjoying your establishment , all these wonderful sounds and smells of lust and pleasure tickling my mind ! It even more upsets me, to now hear from such farce, as it happened some nights ago ! I will not bother you with nasty details, as I am sure, you are informed aswell, though maybe from a totally wrong point of view!

I myself witnessed several nightly talks of two girls from your coven, standing bored and disappointed behind the building, smoking, while the people inside embraced their lust and pleasure. You might wonder why ! Well, I can tell you !

These two were disturbing my beauty sleep EVERY night with their crying and whining about how much prettier the other girls are, how they always get the goodlooking men and even women to go with them for some privacy,while THEY just sit around bored at the bar !! Customers, that they approach on  their own pushing them away, because they smell and have foul teeth ! Every night they annoy me with their crying and I assure you, my patience will not last for much longer. Anyway!

After what my dear Godryck told me, the personal description of the two attackers fits perfectly to those boring chicken disturbing my sleep!!  We Lestat are well known for our good taste in arts, beauty and entertainment, of course NO man of our coven would lower himself to share his carnal desires with a dirty, smelly girl !

Of course my dear Godryck will fight any attempt of such creatures ! Of course his love Lady Maria will be shocked and loosing her coutenance ! And did you even question the fact, that your Sir Ammon left as quickly as possible, leaving our poor Godryck with these two women alone, instead of joining him in an act of pleasure, as your coven members like to call it ?

There is only one reasonable explanation for this ! He was disgusted, yes even scared, these two will jump on him aswell and molest his immortal body, too !! Which man leaves, when he comes to witness an act of lust and carnal stimulation ? Not a single man would be able to resist the alluring smells and sounds of sex and joy !! And that is the proof: it was NOT a willing act of lust , it was forced !

You might say now, fine, I accept this all, I will send my girls to the bathhouse and make sure to give them a good cleaning bla bla… and normally I would agree with you and consider this case as done. But watching my dear child Godryck running around confused, having the urgent need to wash himself all day long, makes me worried and angry ! This is your fault for not having your girls under control !

I hereby demand to discuss, how we can solve this issue ! At least a public washing of these two girls would be appropriate in my opinion, but how do we solve the washing issue of Godryck ? He needs to stop this, it drives me crazy, his constant running to the bath house !! I await your opinion on how to get his mind fixed on his duties again, whatever it costs !  You know where to find me !

Yours sincerley,
Queen Dinky, Quelli Eterno

Dearest Diva Dinky,

I assure you that all of the ladies of the Bordello are indeed clean. We have a ritual every Sunday called the Venus cleanse. I assure you the escorts, both male and female, visit the baths daily -- under my instruction.None of our workers have any nasty things passed on by sexual intercourse...  I assure you, those who frequent the bordello are clean as well. Seeing how must tend to be members of the Drakuli house... unless you are calling them dirty? Actually, a few of the Lestat men and ladies patron the ladies here and gentlemen here.... various men and ladies from all walks of life come here to buy pleasure... please, do not insult our clients. As for the noise? I cannot apologize for that. Why on Earth would you want to live next to a Bordello? The sounds of sweet love making lure me to sleep... I am sorry you cannot find pleasure in the same.

I have already spoke with the two ladies in question. I await Lady Willow's reply later. Lady Isabelle already gave me her story, it fits what has already been told. I suggest that the two ladies work off their debut by helping to build sets? Maybe he could order them around to help regain his manhood?

No matter, I do hope we can discus this matter, and that something can be worked out. I think the victim in question should meet with his attackers, in order to put his fears to rest. Maybe, he should need to speak with a professional over his new obsession with bathing?I am sure a good Doctor would be able to ease his mind with a few blood pills.

I am afraid I cannot control everyone of my members. Such an idea is impossible! How can one control the lustful action of those who are always lusting after sex? It is like... trying to stop a Bathory from enjoy the act of giving pain. I however, I can assure you that nothing of the sort will happen again. I assure you, most of our members only bed the willing. Please, tell a few of your more... sensitive members, such as Lord Godryck, to be careful around the Bordello, and continue to report all crimes directly to me. Darling, everyone knows the Bordello is a house of sin... and should expect something of sexual nature when they enter those doors.

Yours truly,

Domina Liang

Rape?

It seems there was an attempted rape!

Sadly, the vicim was to shaken up to tell the story. And the woman who accompanied him, was too caught up in trying to sling poorly worded insults -- to actually help. I suspect that she might be a Vorden spy in the Lestat group... seeing how the insults she used were often spoken by the Vorden...

So now, I have a letter from Lady Isabelle to go off of, and Willow's word.. I have yet to hear her account of the take.

Here is the Lady Isabelle's side of the story:


I wanted so badly to join... that I lured a man to our chamber. With the aid of a drink,  we loosened him up. Then after, Lady Willow and myself chained him on the wall. After his pants were ripped up I caressed his legs -- that is when the Lestat rushed in.


 He got those scares by struggling. If he had only relaxed, he would not have gotten them. We did not wrap him. His coven leaders saved him at the last moment -- no fun was had! I thought the Lestat were suppose to be -- how you say... fun! Relaxed artist in the libertine style!


Am I in trouble Mademoiselle Liang? I just wished to follow my deep sexual desire. I did not mean to cause any harm. I wanted to share my love for sex with my sister!

I will try to post both Lady Willow's story, and the story of the victim (when he is ready to talk). It seems this little ordeal will have to he cleared up with one of the Lestat Diva, Dinky.
