Recovered Correspondence from the Basgiath IT Help Desk

Hi again Lt. Pyrige,

As part of this morning's briefing, General Melgren asked me to let you know that Panchek's gonna click on a stupid phishing scam email again and please block him from accessing Navarazon so he can't buy any gift cards for scammers this time.

Thanks in advance,

Lt Col Kennedy Personal Secretary to Gen Melgren

Knight/bard AU is out!

It's a biting spring day when Sir Neil de Pyrige, knight-errant first and lordling second, first crosses paths with Todd of Andreu - master poet, new court bard, and the exiled citizen of an enemy country. The rest has passed into myth.

Hymnal To The Year-Turn is on AO3 right now! I've been working on this thing since February, so if you want 37,000 words of pseudo-medieval Anderperry, bardic poetry, and falling in love through letters, go on and check it out. Plus a notes section/bibliography of sorts at the end for you to have a look at! Here's a generated Penguin Classics cover:

(See, I told you I've been thinking about this AU for a while.)

Tagging: @grubbzy @beovisionavant32. So sorry this took so long to finish! You guys must have asked about it nearly two months ago now.

Redaction Duty

Lieutenant Bran Pyrige wandered into the officer's mess. It was macaroni and cheese day, which meant it was Tuesday. He'd lost track again because he'd gotten called down to work on Sunday. When he'd gotten posted to Basgiath, he'd told himself that sure, IT wasn't glamorous, but at least it would be easy compared to a posting out at the front.

And okay, it probably still was that even when he had to work on his days off. There were no gryphons trying to claw his eyes out, after all, only scribes who were mad that their attachments were too large for the email server and healers who had locked themselves out of their email again and riders trying to access… well, somehow it was always the riders' quadrant that generated the really interesting access attempt logs.

Lunch tray in hand, he scanned the mess hall looking for someone worth spending an hour with. He spotted one of the scribes he got along best with and made his way over, ignoring the way his friend looked miserable.

"Ean! How can you be so unhappy when there's macaroni and cheese?" Bran asked.

"Two reasons." The scribe held up two fingers. "First, I'm lactose intolerant." He flipped his hand around so that he was flipping Bran off. "Second, Markham's pissed at me so I'm on fucking redaction duty."

Bran wrinkled his nose. "Oh no, what'd you do this time?"

"I think he got wind I'm supposedly responsible for something that was supposed to get burned but maybe didn't make it there, but there's no proof since you can't prove something was destroyed."

"But he can make you read all the second years' mail from home anyway."

Ean nodded. "Not even all of it. Just one letter."

"How could one letter be that bad?"

The scribe looked around to make sure no one was paying attention. "Riorson sent the little Sorrengail a letter."

"Riorson like… Oh right, they were like 70% of the drama in the riders quadrant last year. Still, how long can a single letter take? It's not like he's going to send her detailed troop movements or something, right?"

"See, that's the thing. Markham's convinced there's a secret code in it, but it's all like… 'when I was a kid I liked to sneak cake' and 'I miss your face' and… let's just say I hope I don't have to look Violet in the eye any time soon."

Bran laughed at the blush on Ean's face. "So what, Markham thinks that there's a secret code about some rebellion hidden in Riorson's childhood stories?"

"I don't know! Apparently! Either that or he knows there isn't one and he just hates me."

"Well either way, you know what the answer is."

"I do?"

"Same thing you told me to do when I was on library duty, remember? If there isn't a right answer, make one up." Bran grinned. "Say the childhood stories are probably a way to signal there's nothing going on at the moment, or see if you can make Markham blush. One finger if by land, two if by sea?"

"Fuck no, I knew her father!" Ean hid his face. "But I'm sure I can manage something. How was your morning? I'm pretty sure I saw smoke coming out of your office again…"

You know I was writing another post and I needed a quote from one of the letters Xaden wrote Violet and then I remembered when Violet was excited to receive a letter from Xaden but then it was actually from Mira the letter was was censored. That means leadership reads through the letters that cadets receive. Does that mean they also read Xaden's intimate letters to Violet? 😀

I mean it will definitely be looked at who the sender and addressee are and then it will be determined whether the person actually could knows something that shouldn't be communicated, but we're talking about Xaden and Violet, they're at the top of the list

Imagine the leadership looking for information about their movements and they are just 'ugh another love letter' lol

Midnight Predator

Midnight Predator, originally titled Predator, Prey, was at first the sequel to Hunter, Hunted. In the first version, it also starred the same character, Karen. After I had written about fifty pages, Karen became a supporting character. In the first rewrite, she was wiped entirely from the book. Poor Karen. She's now living a "normal" life in Pyrige, MA, or was until I decided to torment her a bit more in 012-Untitled.

Since first compiling this history of Predator, I have occasionally been asked why I chose not to publish Hunter, Hunted. Yes, I enjoyed writing Hunter; it introduced me to a new line of vampires, a completely new set of characters, and of course to Midnight itself- a whole world. However, the first book in a new world always suffers some from the artist fumbling to learn her way, and Hunter, Hunted was no exception. The characters were not as well fleshed out as they would later become, and Midnight itself had hardly even been mentioned. Moreover, I wasn’t particularly fond of Karen; she was idiotic and insipid, foolhardy at the worst of times, and intensely gullible. Beyond that, the “villains,” Taro and Varick, both of whom had been feared trainers in the first Midnight, came across as weak little dandies.

Predator, Prey helped me build on the world that the first book had just begun to reveal. Predator brought me into the heart of Midnight, and introduced me to some of the strongest of Katama's line. It also introduced me to my fiercest guild of human vampire-hunters: Bruja's Crimson, Onyx and Frost. Finally, it introduced me to not one, but two characters whose greatest enemies are not outside them, in the walls of the empire that has terrorized Nyeusigrube for centuries, but inside...

Turquoise Draka, the protagonist of Predator Prey, has worked so hard to keep from being prey that she doesn’t know what it is not to struggle. In order to convince herself that she is not the slave that the vampire Lord Daryl tried to turn her into, she has enslaved herself in a mercenary life of the hunt. Now, she must enslave herself more literally, selling herself into the world that is her nightmares in order to destroy its creator.

The process of writing this book was an odd one. In the first draft, it consisted of several shorter segments, including about fifty pages inside the manor of Lord Daryl and Lady Brina (the latter was later cut from the manuscript, much to her relief, since it saved her life) and nearly as many pages of Ravyn’s history. In one draft, Turquoise actually goes home and spends time with her mother after escaping Midnight.

For a while, I didn’t know if I would ever finish this book. I didn’t know where it was going; it felt more like a collection of scenes than anything else. I was working off some basic ideas, inspired by quotes spoken to me by friends and family:

Pain is temporary, but pride is forever. (Quoted to me by my friend; original author unknown) No one can make you a victim but yourself. (From my mother) "The servant is the master in disguise..." (Taja Syville)

As always, I eventually ran into my demon of Writer's Block, and this time relief came from an unlikely spot. Not really expecting help, I complained to my father that I was stuck, in response to which he gave me the answer, "Just end it with 'In the end, my father was right.'"

Surprise surprise! It worked!

Predator, Prey has endured more changes than any other work I have written so far. Fifty pages were written while I was on vacation for a week with my family, on a cruise; that entire section, which detailed Ravyn's history, was later scrapped. Originally Turquoise was abducted by a vampiress named Lady Brina; Lord Daryl was her brother. There were another 50 pages or so of that history, which was also taken out. Jeshickah, who became the antagonist, was added. Jaguar's sister Alejandra was removed. Gabriel Donovan, one of my favorite wicked guys, was added. Several other hunters, Karen included, were removed.

The person changed from first to third to first to third to first and back to third with almost every draft. The ending was rewritten entirely at least three times. Turquoise's parents were killed, they lived, they were killed again.

At one point I made a list of scenes, cut them out into fortune-cookie-fortunes-sized pieces of paper, and rearranged them, sometimes planning a new one and sometimes throwing one out, until they were all lined up on a long piece of black duct tape-- my outline for editing.

Names, especially, were changed, primarily due to repeats with other published works. I had used the name Christopher on another vampire, and to avoid confusion with ShatMir's Christopher, Predator’s was turned into Nathaniel. To avoid confusion with Demon's Monica Smoke, a hunter's name was changed to Ravyn instead. Due to my editor's inability to connect the name Jacquelyn with Jamie, her name was changed to Catherine (Cathy, actually named after my publicist, though the spelling differs), and due to that change Katherine Red's name was changed to Jillian.

So long as we were doing the name dance, my editor said she didn't like the title. By this time I was too exhausted from editing to really care. I still think of it as Predator, Prey, I admit, and most of my family and friends still call it that.

I think that's about it.

Frequent visitors of fanfiction.net may have seen a very early draft of Predator, Prey, which was plagiarized by a no-longer-member of my writer's group and posted (with names changed) as He Who Carries the Whip. You will understand when I say a lot has changed.

Midnight Predator's music for writing included Taja Syville and Marcy Playground primarily, though it changed quite a bit, and included Vertical Horizon, Red Hot Chili Peppers' Californication, and Garbage Version 2.0

Recovered Correspondence from the Basgiath IT Help Desk

Lt. Pyrige,

Congratulations on your new posting to the Basgiath Help Desk. I'm looking forward to having someone with rider experience working on our systems, and I'm certain your Reboot signet will be a major asset.

Your commanding officer will be Col. Markham and the Help Desk offices are located in the Archives- please ensure you do not work any unscheduled overtime as we would not be responsible for your death. The server room is located in the sub-basement next to the forges so IT emergencies can be handled 24/7 as needed.

As a fully-trained rider, you may also be called out for support as needed. We'll be providing you with two Scribe cadets to train as help desk interns to cover in such an emergency. The morning account deactivation list will be provided to you shortly after the death rolls are read in formation.

Welcome aboard, Gen. Lilith Sorrengail PS. Please immediately deactivate v.sorrengail@scribeq.basgiath.edu and recreate as v.sorrengail@riderq.basgiath.edu

Nyeusigrube: Places

Disclaimer: None of this is mine, everything was collected from Amelia Atwater-Rhodes’ old websites, the wiki, and the old message boards. Anything written in the first person is a direct quote from Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. For all the entries in the The Den of Shadows Reference series, check the tag or this page.

Devil's Lantern

An island off the south-west coast of the USA, home to the Rajar elavie.

Family Courtyard

A Shantel term, referring to the center of Shantel land, a very well-guarded compound.

Pyrige

Pyrige is the human town directly beside New Midnight. It is also owned by Jaguar, with Xeke Catene as a silent partner, but not controlled by them. To most humans, it’s a town like every other, and they never know what goes on in the dark. Others know and wish they didn’t.

Ramsa

Ramsa is the large human town that neighbors New Mayhem, a few hours' drive north-west of New York City. Odd happenings have been observed here since the town's founding, including disasters both natural and less so. As with Pyrige, most people never know what's going on, and live their lives in the bliss of ignorance.

Vieton

A town founded by the Macht witches during Midnight's reign, where they would be safe from both Midnight and the remnants of the witch-hunts.

[nyeusigrube-haven]

Nyeusigrube Vocabulary

A rapid-fire explanation of the basic vocabulary you need to know to navigate Nyeusigrube. Definitions are not given to supremely common words like "lunar vampires," since they have their own essays. Obviously, this list is not complete, especially in terms of people - it only contains those who are most influential within Nyeusigrube

Places and Empires

Liadan

A manor founded in the 1100s by the newly-vampiric Katama and Jeshickah. The ladies of the manor ruled firmly but fairly, treating their serfs better than most did at that time. Later, Liadan became home to a pride of lions, who acted as bailiffs, police, and knights. In the fifteenth century, the Inquisition came to Liadan. One of the lions, hoping to protect himself and his pride, betrayed the vampiresses, giving their names to inquisitors and detailing how they could be killed. He was immediately arrested, and tortured until he also revealed the names (and weaknesses) of the others of his kind. As the lions were systematically wiped out from the area, Katama and Jeshickah abandoned Liadan and founded a less-friendly empire.

Midnight

Midnight, founded after Liadan's fall, quickly became a force to be reckoned with. By the sixteen hundreds, Midnight had physical, political and economic control over the other vampires, the witches, and all but a very few shapeshifters (the shm'Ahnmik, the Azteka, and the Shantel). In addition to controlling all trade routes, Midnight also became the heart of the vampiric slave-trade, where humans, witches and shapeshifters were bought and sold. Midnight fell on the fall equinox of 1804.

New Midnight

Midnight, dormant for over a hundred years, once again began to emerge as a power after it was re-founded by Jeshickah's fledgling, Jaguar, in the early 1900s. As of this moment, it has not yet regained the same level of influence, but it is once again the heart of the slave trade.

Pyrige

Pyrige is the human town directly beside the new Midnight. It is also owned by Jaguar, with Xeke Catene as a silent partner.

Mayhem

Mayhem was founded by Silver's line, originally as a haven from the idiocy of humanity. Later, Silver's line began to become frustrated with Midnight, and began fighting against it. Before they had established any strong measure of control, however, the city was burned mostly to the ground by a bloodbond named Kaei.

New Mayhem

New Mayhem, built on the ashes of the original Mayhem, was more assertive in its claims over the denizens of Nyeusigrube. After Midnight's fall, New Mayhem became the heart of the vampiric world.

Ramsa

Ramsa is the human town that neighbors New Mayhem. Odd happenings have been observed here since the town's founding, including disasters both natural and less so.

Family Courtyard

A Shantel term, referring to the center of Shantel land, a very well-guarded compound.

Devil's Lantern

An island off the south-west cost of the USA, home to the Rajar elavie.

Vieton

A town founded by the Macht witches during Midnight's reign, where they would be safe from both Midnight and the remnants of the witch-hunts.

Businesses and Organizations

The Market

A chain of clubs and shops, owned by Xeke Catene.

Blue-X

A video production company, owned by Xeke Catene, with Rikai as a partner.

A chain of bar-style establishments, known both as a gathering place for willing blood-donors, and as a place to find and hire mercenaries, assassins, witches, and other "professionals" who can't be found in the Yellow Pages.

Nameless

A small club in Boston, owned by Rikai, that is an absolutely neutral ground. All are welcome there, human or not, so long as they are peaceful. Nameless is built in the shell of an old hotel, and the rooms upstairs are still open, and available to anyone who needs a place to stay.

Bruja Guilds (Crimson, Onyx, Frost)

Originally founded to fight Midnight, the Bruja Guilds have become the staging ground for the world's most elite mercenaries.

SingleEarth

Founded by Diana Smoke, SingleEarth is an organization dedicated to peaceful relations between all of Nyeusigrube's inhabitants- human, witch, vampire, shapeshifter, Triste, or anything else that cares to join. SingleEarth also has a strong outreach program, which among other things tracks news stories and police and hospital reports in order to find, educate and support humans who have survived vampire attacks, human-raised shapeshifters, and other individuals who have been unexpectedly introduced to Nyeusigrube.

Cultures

Shantel

A culture founded by a handful of cougars and leopards, led by a powerful witch who had forseen Midnight's rise and wanted to protect her people from it. Vehemently territorially and protective of their own, they survived Midnight's reign without losing their own sovereignty. Most notable for their nameless spirit-witch, who spoke to and worked with elementals and other powerful magics in order to protect her lands.

Dasi

The coven of thirteen men and women, as well as their followers, from whom the serpiente and shm'Ahnmik decend.

Nesera'rsh

Though the Dasi no longer exist, there are still pockets where the ancient religion of the Nesera'rsh is still practiced, in various forms. The most traditional followers are found within the Obsidian Guild and on the shm'Ahnmik island of Ak'da. Most serpiente dancers also follow many Nesera'rsh ways.

Obsidian Guild

The white viper descendents of Maeve who were exiled from the Dasi for practicing black magic. The Guild also takes in serpiente exiles, often criminals, and so is commonly considered a band of outlaws- a title they don't protest much. By modern day, this stereotype has become closer to reality. Up until the Inquisition, most members of the Obsidian Guild were also Nesera'rsh.
