A SUMMON TO HYPOCRISY
ISSUED BY
THE HOLY ORDER OF ST. JUDE
IN THIS YEAR
OF OUR LORD 1947
ON KNOWN AND SPECULATED VAMPYRES
Recently, a missive had been published by the many Lords and Ladies of the realm. Their signatures laid silent at the bottom of accusations of vampirism, and now it is time for us to act. It is so very simple to hide behind cobbled walls of impregnable castles, where aurum and salt may not reach. But your actions cannot be erased from history, merely concealed. For that is how you creatures of the night act. You cloak yourself within veils of dark, hoping to not be caught by the just inquisitors of GOD.
But what if I said, that among those signatures, lie two black sheeps? They are so quick to demand the death of the House von Augusten, while they too harbor vampires of their own. Such a fact angered not only I, but my brother in faith Bishop Callahan as well. Therefore, we hereby issue a summon to the following people, who may either subdue themselves to testing or be deemed guilty.
Ser Leopold Haverlock and his wife.
After the incident with Aaren Colborn, I have been investigating more alongside Bishop Callahan. It is then that we found out the Lord Haverlock had been not only housing and protecting, but wed to a vampire. The mother of his children. The both of them are to arrange a time they may find favorable, and show themselves to the Castle Priory of St. Jude in Veletz in order to be jointly tested.
Emilio Varoche
An old ally of Allessandra de Vend, Emilio of Varoche has been deemed a possible vampire. Not only him, but his kinsman “Paul Varoche'' too are summoned to the Castel Priory of St. Jude in Veletz in order for testing. While that of the Count Varoche is only a suspicious, his kinsman Paul is deemed a confirmed vampire, one who had worked with “Ibisa”, vampire and necromancer.
LET THERE BE TRUE LIGHT.
HIS GRACE, Callahan Bishop Citrea, Grand Prior of the Holy Order of St. Jude
HOLY SIR Halston Veynot, Grand Master of the Holy Order of St. Jude, Holy Knight of His Mother Church.
HER SERENE HIGHNESS, Dame Avalon ‘the charred spear’ of Númenost, Sergeant of the Holy Order of St. Jude, and Knight Protector of the Canonist realms.
DAME Bronwyn of Númenost, Knight of Númendil and Neophyte of the Holy Order of St. Jude.
THE REVEREND, Mother Oksana of the Holy Order of St. Jude
