K and the Destroyer of Nations
K and the Destroyer of Nations
How do you stop a train? How do you stop Darth Vader? How do you stop Superman? Well you derail a train. You use the Light side of the Force. You use kryptonite. Whatever you do will leave that item and icon in ruins.
Now, why did I start off saying that? Skell -- Our lovely, newest edition to the Brotherhood of Von Drachenfeld is all of the above. He is the product of his raising. He has suckled on Orel Wessel’s withered teat and has learned that force and pain are acceptable means to an end. He can snap a Vampire’s neck without a second thought. He can beat down Lycan because his “sense” of honor was besmirched. He is a mixture of the Brotherhood and at the same instance he is his own individual. Have I lost you yet? Skell’s value system is at the opposite end of the spectrum of Xavier. Even Azrael’s own values do not go as far down as Skell’s. (Which is why Az can’t be Hashmalliam) And the final kicker is that Orel Wessel taught him to follow the letter of the law/rules, and that was a lesson he has learned hard. Case in point, Skell was late for curfew and Darius was killed. So to him, rules are in place and they must be enforced – with whatever means necessary. [The ends justify the means mentality.]
K as always has made me think – yet again.
Q: I’m starting to find it more difficult to follow ‘your’ of the brother’s reasoning. The whole last chapter is a testament to their incapability of ruling the Nation. They are mixing House, family and court-affairs. That is not a good thing for an emperor…”
Now, the Brotherhood has never been given the Lord Emperor’s dummies guide to ruling. Liam who was supposed to be assisting them, basically turned into a sex freak and ended up in Hades bed before Orel Wessel took advantage of Sex’s little meltdown.
Why is X giving Skell the run of the mansion, so to speak? Gratitude and Guilt. He is thankful that Skell survived and in turn kept the fallen brothers alive for five years and he bears of guilt of falling under the onslaught. Sex did a little freefall and is under harsh and severe sanctions. Az, well he’ll do something and X will call him on it. Skell…Skell is acting on the brother’s darkest desires and they are letting him.
This cannot continue.
Skell has had little to no socialization skills at all. He is an immortal entity with unimaginable powers now that he was feed and blooded up. I think the only Vampires who could possibly stand up to him now are Claudius, as Carnage and Hades. Claudius might have the get of jail free card because Sex loves him and Skell admires Sex as the original brother and as the Christmas tree of their pod. Hades would get hand of lighted without a second thought. (Flambed little shepherd boy with a charbroiled lambchop on the side.)
Skell laying down the law in such a harsh and unforgiving manner is setting a formidable reputation for Lord Emperor Xavier the First. This is going to cause a ripple effect through the Vampire Nation leadership, the Hunters, the Eastern Lycan and the rest of the Blood Nations.
And…as K pointed out “To the outer world they are one. Their acting so differently makes them appear unstable – a nut case.”
The Vampire Nation has lived through one fruitcake of an Emperor in Sigmund. I doubt that they are willing to go through another batty Von Drachenfeld, even if there are four-in-one.
So Skell has set the House of Von Drachenfeld on the path to Emperorship whether the other brothers wanted to take over the ruling of the whole Nation or not. But please remember, at the Brotherhood’s core is the desire to save lost fledglings from Orel Wessel. This just might not be the best way to get there.
Give me your thoughts….as always.
