Ancient Powers

The battle for the soul of
Phoenix is over.

Things in the supernatural world
should have calmed down, but they're heating up.

At Least Dyani and her pack
are satisfied because everyone else is still out for blood.

The bloodbath started by the King
and the Master isn't over yet.

The death of the vampires' leader has
caused a power vacuum. Any vampire old enough to make a claim for control is crawling
out of the woodwork.

If all the Helsing Society had
to worry about was the vampires, things wouldn't be so bad.

The timing is almost too
perfect to be a coincidence when Darion Bloom mysteriously appears with the blood
staff, Sangre Drenar, in his possession.

With the staff, he can force any
vampire to do his bidding. The vampires aren't thrilled with the staff's
reemergence.

If the staff and the vampires aren't
enough to contend with, Saul makes a deal with a fairy.

A real-life, pointy-eared fairy.
Dylan is starting to feel like they've stepped out of the real world and into a
fantasy story.

Will this latest avalanche of
calamities be the straw that breaks the Helsing Society's back?
