Morlock admits to being fascinated in the role [[Vlad III|Vlad Tepes]] has played in the war, examining his body, which "experiences multiple branches of history". The normal history of his life has only a tangential impact on the war, the massacre at Targoviste caused the [[Celestis]] to take note of him. But his future life has multiple strands, being resurrected by [[Mal'akh]] worshipers, or people believing in Stoker's novel and so him becoming [[Dracula]], and one thread, more interesting than the others, a woman in a black dress, the mother of monsters, [[ | Morlock admits to being fascinated in the role [[Vlad III|Vlad Tepes]] has played in the war, examining his body, which "experiences multiple branches of history".
