I did not know them then as I would in the future. The tome was invaluable to me in all my work.... The JuJu zombie ghouls was something I never thought I could do yet somehow I did. But after me and mercedes were seperated, I felt lost, how could I be her mother from so many states away? But somehow like my mother I just knew sometimes how things would turn out. I knew not only would I see her again and look over her, but it would be something I would never have imgained possible at the time.
When mercedes came back to tell us of her marriage proposal , I had this saddened feeling. I knew something unspeakable would happen if she did. But I always knew each ones desinty lies in a place that no others can ever find. I would not stop her destiny. No matter how bad it was, I knew she would come back in time. I remember the last time I saw her before it happened. The clothes she wore, the way she cried after father had taken her kicking and screaming from corte. He thought he knew best for her, but he never could look at her the same way since mothers death. I wondered his real motivation if it was love or just some way to take away what she loved. As she handed me back the car keys and ran off to the bataria swamp to elope with corte It was like in slow motion. I saw the door slam shut but heard no sound, this was a big moment for me, one that would change my life. |

It would be 5 years till I would see her again. As frightening as those times were and all I went through before she embraced me ill always remember them fondly, though I rarely speak of them and given my current lack of time I wont get into it here and will instead save it for another time. But it was in those 5 years that I learned most of my voodoo powers. I learned all about my ancestry, of Marie Laveau, my middle name taken from her as if somehow mother knew what would happen to me. I always knew myself that I would be something I would love yet it would instill fear in the hearts of my victims. I started with minor rituals, of body cleansing to make me pure in mind and body, but would eventually move onto a different path, a darker more sinister one. These 5 years were almost a blur to me and I will write to you another time about them. I would hate to make them seem so unimportant in my life by just skimming over them. |

When all my voodoo rituals of location had failed me, I felt such an odd feeling the day my sister would come back into my life, and from that day forth I would never be the same. Instead forced to embrace me, mercedes welcomed me into the Clan Lasombra. I remember it was only 2 nights past that I was able to pull shadows over me as I stalked my blood vessels leaving me unseen until it was too late for them. Soon after I was able to merely convince them to give it to me by simple gestures and commanding them to do so.
I see my time is here, so I must be going. There is so much more to my story, and I will tell you another time but I must leave you be for tonight. |

Oh I almost forgot to mention one of my most favorite rituals I had performed in all my years. I will elaborate another time but I cant help but wet your palette with this juicy story. You know our father, that in some eyes abused Mercedes, with his empty soul forgetting about us and living his like selfishly only thinking of our dead mother? |
