Diantha hadn't felt that rested in a long time.

It hadn't even been a week since Cordelia died and she was still joyful.

Although she was a little put out when she soon heard Beatrix and Crista both died as well. A shame. Beatrix, while she wasn't friendly with her, she viewed her as a proper vampire despite her flaws, and felt pity for Christa considering her situation.

Though, with all the wives gone and no other female heirs, her own position as the next queen was secure. 

In the meantime, as her five brothers would be by her side, Karl had decided that once they were of 'vampire' age, they could be with their sister and the next child she would bear from any of them would be an upcoming heir.

Silently, Diantha knew this was another plot of Karl's for his little 'project' to cure his race. But she thought it all out. She was able to contact Bloodhook, her goblin lawyer and he was able to find a special medicine that could be put into a vampire's bloodstream on the condition her own DNA would power the antidote. She sent some of her hair and a vial of her own blood for the sample for the testing. she just had to bide her time, although it would take a long time.

In the meantime, Karl would send her and her brothers a 'sacrificial bride' in hopes of being the next 'Eve' for his project. The 'brides' usually ended up being blood bags for the boys while they would find solstice with the only sister as a space for safety. Diantha always took blood from them on the fingers but only when she needed it, but she could get by with animal blood better than her brothers. Though she'd know they wouldn't last long, she at least gave them comfort.

Centuries had passed since then, and Diantha was concerned for the situation. 

One day, she learned from the goblins another 'bride' was coming. One named Yui. 

She recalled seeing her out in town one time. 

'Maybe...' Diantha thought.
