Amlan/Marcus: Transylvania Thesaurus/Passages

A Story by Abishai100
"

Idealist pals of the West and vampire-inquirers make for 'fantastic' discovery of blood-immortals 'universe' smoke and may offer some 'shorthand' Earthling expression.

Vampire short. Happy Summer,

AMLAN: We make map of Transylvania where rich vampire imagery is education.
MARCUS: We're cool co-adventurers for this Romanian language of exotic arts.
AMLAN: The vampire is neither standard cannibal nor simply frilled artist, pal.
MARCUS: Yes, the blood-immortal (vampire) is half-creature, half-philosopher!
AMLAN: We remain quiet and steady-eyed for this Euro-idea about adventure.
MARCUS: We go with Holy Water loaded water-guns and notes about history.
AMLAN: Vampire texts have generated ideas about cults and lifestyle-jars, ok.
MARCUS: We'll be fine (Facebook-like!).



How could Amlan/Marcus have predicted the sort of stranger vision of darkness in Transylvania once they got to Romania, where ancient/modern focus of things of cannibalism had generated cities/towns interest in alternate-lifestyle weirdness for story-tells about immortality and dark 'religion' of blood-nutrition, highly different from the jewelry of watery-Earth? How could they have anticipated an encounter with a thorny-demon 'specter' named Endymion who claimed he'd been a descended immortal of human-blood ingestion for Hell (hmmm)?



ENDYMION: You're would-be heroes in this castle-moonlit Transylvania, eh?
AMLAN/MARCUS: You're the Devil himself, Endymion!
ENDYMION: You want to shoo-away my presence with your Holy Water guns, eh?
AMLAN/MARCUS: What's the Romanian message here (for us) under moonlight?
ENDYMION: You made sharp-guess the blood-immortal clan may not host you.
AMLAN/MARCUS: We didn't think vampires would invite us into their castles!
ENDYMION: Maybe you've something of proof to be added (museum).
AMLAN/MARCUS: Our mortal thought lives shall be spared under moonlight, eh?
ENDYMION: Good guess, but fail in the detail and you die (Facebook-like).



Years later, we find Amlan older and separated from his once best-pal Marcus; they'd become both jaded by their Transylvanian misadventure which was honestly in communications-potential one-half comedy for errors (ha). Amlan/Marcus never revealed the message of that dark individual in Romania ('Endymion'); but Amlan began work as an older-man on a novel concept about that Transylvania 'universe' percept, titled (appropriately?)...Facebook-like Immortals Passover.
