RE: The Valorous Vachel and Valine~vVwVv

Vachel was a radiant
Patient type of being;
Her inherent kindness
Led her to much sorrow.
Why her captives were starved -
Nearly emaciated in their dungeon rooms -
Was beyond her.
She was no vamp lover, by my word...
Rats and bats?
The poor enclosed beasts of
Of White Viper Island
Are guilty of nothing more than being themselves.
Vachel sighs upon her shoreside perch...
Pondering as the ships roll in.

Valine, on the other hand
Is a true piece of work.
She simply thrives of the agonizing cries
That fill the evening air...
The Blood drinkers deserve their fate!
Valine would surely grant them all
An extra...snack, shall we say
If only they would share their power with her.
She spends a good deal of her time
Trying to figure out
Exactly how to make that come about...
Immortality looks tasty to her.

Nafarious is clearly caught between the two.
He turns over in his sleep,
Lets out a long sigh.
He is not troubled by the captives
Of White Viper Island.
He is a happy bloodsucking demon himself.
Secretly, of course.
Vachel would be horrified
And Valine woud never let him rest...
Her constant "Gimme gimme" would drive him nuts.
Nafarious is a skilled liar.

***

Valine and Vachel both start up the path.
A winding rocky footpath connects
The shoreline to the castle door...
Surely you knew?
This vampiric dungeon sits below a most...
Showy, lets say, castle.
Well, up our Ying and Yang ladies go.
Nafarious is about to be awoken
By news most unwelcome.

Seems a special guest has arrived.

RE: The Valorous Vachel and Valine~vVwVv

Nafarious was pacing in his bedchamber, most excited indeed.
The ambassador’s appearance was most timely for Nafarious’ needs.

For he fully intended to build an army most rare
Turning his hapless prisoners at will, without care.

The incoming cargo of Mr Deweese brings much pleasure -
Nafarious traffics in flesh and bone, not bejeweled treasure.

This conjured brief thoughts of delicious Vachel and Valine…
Both their fertile wombs growing something new…obscene.

There hangs an unoticed portent sky over Dark Master’s head
Blistering and bruised; perhaps an omen for the undead?

Oblivious to all but the (hunger) business ahead,
Out swept Nafarious to greet the newly arrived guest.


***


Below decks upon
A freshly docked ship,
A pep rally was taking place.
Seems word had gotten around
About White Viper Island
And it’s Gothic mansion.
Word about what was held
Within it’s dark and dank belly.

One man in particular was not eager
To be eaten; or turned.
Barbaric and brutal,
Sack cloth and dirt,
Gandar raised his fist!

We must resist! We must not be led to slaughter!

Deafening roar of response!
Symphony of unity,
Punctuated by the clank of chains…
The stink of human…
Slave gang.

All eyes are on Gandar,
Savior and soldier.

***

Upon the hill, beneath the Castle keep,
Creatures grew restless - needful, weak.

They sensed a shifrting in the air…
Sounds above, someone's here!

Their wailing began anew, most forceful
Food captives in another cells grew fearful.

The Rapacious Blood Demons had their plans, too
The White Viper Island suited their milieu.

Despite being entombed, tortured, starved and abased
The Blood Demons minds connected, interlaced.

Kill the Captors, feed on the Others
Turn the water bound to bloody Blood Brothers!

Kill and kill, feast and feast
Chained up now, but soon released!

Own both the night and day
Make the King and his Queens pay pay pay!

Howling began in earnest at dusk
The living food shrank from such lust.

RE: The Valorous Vachel and Valine~vVwVv

My Lord, wait if you will
For I would join you to yonder hill;

I enjoy our nightly sojourns…
My blood is raging and squirms…

Really, Valine! Hisses Vachel
Glancing toward Mr DeWeese as well.

Nafarious silences them both with a look
Come Valine ~ he offers his arm crook.

***

The Lord and his Dark Mistress
Arrive at the Northern Shore.
Steel gray waters roil and roar,
Tossing Trinity Lane without mercy.

The cries of the damned are pitiful
Stangley arousing to the
Black-hearted Valine.

Oh let me, she croons.

Nafarious snarls,
You forget yourself my Queen!
Will you endanger the babe
You carry? Why tarry
Here amongst filth and despair?

He knows this answer…

***

The Blood Demons roar in anticipation
At the site of their salvation.

Valine smiles demurely, evil little wench,
Then guides her special key, gives it a wrench.

The starved loosed Vampires are crazed
Next Valine opens the Food Captives' cage….

With burgeoning belly she beats a retreat
Watching through spy holes as the beasts eat.

Her heart, how it quivers with carnal delight!
Each gnashing gash- her satisfaction ignites!


Oh my King, do you not long just as I
To feel that power tear through you?
If I could only…

Nafarious’ fangs wet with desire
Hunger most imprudent.
Valine’s swooning pleasure
At the kill fest
Is deeply arousing.
Quickly he slips away…
A stray captive will satisfy his need.

***

Meanwhile, tender little Vachel
Is unnerved and feeling unwell.

Seems her obscene fetus is restless.
Penelope senses her mistress’ distress.

Perhaps, my Lady Fair, in would be wise
To fetch Valine, and begin the confine?

She looses the Hyenas, the loyal castle hounds
To fetch the Twin Queen; bring her around.

RE: The Valorous Vachel and Valine~vVwVv

The timely arrival of the Castle Hyenas
Gave Valine reason to leave the blood arena.

Her womb constricted most painfully
Though she struggled to hide this vainly.

Vachel and Valine, two glorious queens
Together birthed their half demon offsprings.

Vachel’s Rachel, lovely Sunchild,
Valine’s Rowan, powerful Moonchild.

Neither thought the other one knew!
Nafarious’ dark secret was safe…
The birth wet infants
Were silent and still
Carefully watching each other…
Penelope notice the babes’ most unusual bond.

Vachel saw her daughter Rachel’s
Clear gray eyes;
Surprise! Dark latent intent
Matched only by Rowan
Prince of the Dark Twin Queen.
Oh obscene, this scene!

Vachel looked at Valine…
Valine smiled,
Rowen nursed mother's red milk
The nurturing drink of the new babe’s ilk.

Blood babes, blood babes
Gave their father away.

Bloody days, bloody days
Dark monsters rising in Northern bay.

Purify and sanctify, burning is a must.
Vachel knows the terrible blood lust.

Blood babes, blood babes
Gave their father away.

***

Night came round fully.
Silver light filled Vachel’s eyes.
Dark Queen slept, Light Queen plotted.
Quickly she fled
A babe under each arm.
Frantic to find the maid
Her childhood friend,
Someone on whom she hopes to depend.

Tender Gwendolyn rests down the hall
Used the Queens becks and calls.

Vachel implores her most fervently
Take the babes, Gwenny, flee flee flee!

Gwendolyn realizes Vachel calls in a debt
Something that the Good Maid will never forget.

For once upon childhood's hazy loose days
Vachal and Gwendolyn did carelessly play.

Winter struck hard one particular year
Gwenny lost her family to Death‘s charioteer.

Vachel begged her wealthy absent sire
To take Gwendolyn in - as maid for hire.

Gwendolyn embraces lovely light Vachel
Assuring her the babes will be kept well.

Gwendolyn turns -
Mistress, don’t linger,
There‘s darkness about.
Our Master Nafarious has not been seen…
Perhaps he abandons his Queen?

Vachel only smiles sadly.
Be gone, Gwendolyn.
Your debt to me is repaid.
Remember this day…
Remember this day.

Vachel leaves with a heavy heart.
Much left to arrange, she quickly departs.

This night is for mourning -
Twin souls will perish.
This night is for mourning -
New souls to nourish.

***

The castles walls blister to hear such deceit
But the Light Queen’s secret they will keep.

Valine sleeps on unaware of the twister
Of emotions that have fueled her sister.


***

Vachel rushes to the castle kitchen
Praying the cook is retired for the night.
A few well placed candles
Will end her plight.
She held the Demon Nafarious’ dark seed.
Time to make amends for that grevious deed.
Valine will not perish alone -
Vachel races back to the room
As the flames begin to roam.

***

Her purpose was complete,
The babes were safe -
Agony was fading,
Self-sacrifice was looming.
The Celestial Twin Queen
Passed like a breeze
Through choking smoke
To reach her sister Valine.

Vachel knew they were damned.
She’s known from the start.
Nafarious is the devil’s minion
Wolfen and sleek.
Love nibbles and drinks
While he thought Vachel asleep.

But she knew…
Unpure…
Unholy sharing
Resulting in blood babies…

***

Wrenching open the chamber’s door
Vachel was immediately shoved to the floor.

But not before
The heavy oak door
Swung shut, click…lock -
Final moments remain, insane.

Valine screamed and ruptured,
Blood snaking its languid path down her legs.
Her ankles laced in red…
Vachel merely smiled
Trying to crawl away
From Dark Sister’s wrath.

Smoke poured under the door.

The Queens heard the flames
Licking incessantly…vengefully.

Rowan! Screamed Valine
Rowan!!

He’s gone my twin, my self, my other
Safe from the evil that would succor him here.
Rachel gone too…
Oh, what else could I do?

Valine, in shock, shut down inside…
Why? As flame caressed…
Why?

In the end, the sisters died
Exactly as they were born…
Entwined within each others’ arms,
Forehead gently touching.
They had come full circle.

***

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn was struggling with the wards
So hastily put in her willing compassionate arms.

The babies, born same day, same sire
Were half-twins; half air, half fire.

Rowan and Rachel, beauties they were
Cried without solace, seeming aware,

That their blood mothers were leaving
In a great burst of smoke, to each, cleaving.

Rowan met Rachel’s eyes
A vow of revenge - Nafarious dies!

Thank you two for this write.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
