Description
“Every houseguest brings you happiness. Some when they arrive, and some when they are leaving.”– Confucius
When Kindred speak of hospitality, they’re not referring to the virtues of being a good host. Vampires are at their most vulnerable in the daysleep — to allow another Kindred into your home, to reveal the cradle in which you slumber, is to put yourself at risk, should the relationship sour. A Cainite only finds themselves under another’s roof in the most dire or strange of circumstances.
Unfortunately, the coterie has been thrust into very strange circumstances. They now await the arrival of their secret guests at O’Hare Airport, and soon learn why the Prince was so keen to keep these strangers away from prying eyes (13:15). Dangerous visitors are in town, and the coterie is responsible for keeping them safe until Elysium the following evening (26:47). Our four Kindred manage to deliver their charges to the Prince, but not without risk, and not without cost (54:26).

Prelude 2 - The Embrace: “That is will never come again is what makes life so sweet.”– Emily DickinsonIt’s hard to say Emily was wrong; immortality comes with burdens aplenty and none live so free as the mortals ignorant to the monsters that live by night. Never forget: the Kindred are cursed. They feed on the living, burn in the sun, and wrestle for eternity with an alien predator that lives in their soul. Only the most bizarre and twisted of individuals goes looking for the Embrace — unless they have an imperfect understanding of what being a vampire means.What makes someone choose to live beyond death, then? Ivy LaRoux (1:14) sees an eternity’s worth of knowledge and recognition. Joshua Crozier (20:22) has no choice at all. Schmendrick (34:38) is forced to decide under duress, and Rebecca Mitchell (51:12) can only choose after wrestling with cultural contradictions.
