A/N: This one took me roughly a week. No planning, no plotting, no outlining, no nothing. Only a chart of the characters age from VW to SS, not to mention the laying out of the entire Syndrome universe's timeline.
Anyway, I'm very much proud of this. Despite its shortness, it holds the very main story of VW, which is all about how the black blood came to be. There may be much left to say about Jeral as the person himself, and I don't know how the folks at PSF will take this lack of fleshy, personal characterization. But this is it. If I will ever edit this... we'll see.
Summary: For centuries, the covens aren’t allowed to interact with each other, and this law they follow without a word. It is to avoid conflicts and wars between covens, but not within a coven itself. And this law Jeral Simoni ignores for the sake of his yearning to control.
( This only ends the beginning of what he foresees will be a long war. )
