Alturiak 1477 -

Until I was thirteen years of age, I didn't know that 'Uncle' Cazador was a vampire - that, indeed, my entre family were vampires, going back generations. Growing up on the Szarr country estate near Anga Vled, raised by old family servants, I rarely visited our city palace in Baldur's Gate. And when I did, I couldn't wait to leave and return to the country. The city palace, straddling the wall between the Upper and Lower City, was more than creepy, it was somehow chilling.

-Amanita Szarr
