My Dearest Brianna,

I am very pleased at your latest questions. They are pertinent and incisive. Excellent!

So, in your “Question about War“, you ask: “What did you mean? Is that leadership no longer in existence? Are they dead, or did they get dethroned or whatever you call it?”

The Thoth leaders at the end of WWI had grown complacent. They took no interest in the Treaty of Versailles. They had helped end the war and negotiating the peace was a Human problem for Humans to solve.

Since the end of the Dark Ages, four hundred years before, they had, apparently, dominated the Kuks. They had the idea that the Kuks were defeated or had given up.

They refused to listen to anyone who told them otherwise (myself included). They refused to look at proof, although plenty was offered. They refused to consider the fact that Vampires plan in terms of centuries rather than years and that the Kuks had such a plan.

So, on the 29th of December 1936, they met for their decennial gathering in the same French Château they had congregated in for the past three hundred and twenty years. They sipped fine wines, spoke in congratulatory tones and were blown into very small pieces by a very large bomb.

Vampire books and movies tend toward the supernatural. The Vampire always survives somehow: his ashes are collected by his faithful retainer and are placed in a box so he can be later revived. It’s a nice theory, but the truth is that, although we have great recuperative powers, we can be killed. So we were not able to scrape up the remains of the Thoth leadership and revive them. And to be honest, it was probably just as well. Many felt the Kuks did us a favor.

I trust that answers your questions.

Yours,

Alistair
