Autumn Leaves: A True Vampire Story (The Dark Annals)

My God, my God, I have seen it. Please; whoever finds these writings, pay attention to its warnings before you visit that place. However, I pray you do not go there. Yet, if you do, I hope that your faith is stronger and that your mind is sharper than my own. Maybe you, unlike me, will be able to reason it out and do that which I was unable to do. Maybe you will be able to save yourself and… in the process, me as well. In any case, I have left full details of the events as they were given to me by the old man to help you. Events that have occurred in this city since slavery. I have written it all down from the beginning to the end. Know this, he had advised me that the secret to excising it is in the writings. Unfortunately, in all my undertakings, I have been unable to decipher it. So In fear and desperation, I had gone back to the old man for more clarification after my visit to that…that place. I dare not say it or write it even now... At any rate, I had found out from a neighbor that he had died two days before in his sleep. I was told that when he was found, his face held a look of pure fear. The old man had warned me, but I saw his cautions vigilances as foolish superstition, a figment of the imagination. I now curse my arrogance on this matter; my foolishness. I must go now because the sixty-six day of the creature’s rest is one day from being over, and I must be far away from here when that time is up or perish. I have taken the precautions of changing my name, so it will be hard to find me, but my destination is the Vatican in Rome. Maybe…maybe, there is hope there.
