Science is both enemy and ally of change. Where we have redirected it with care, it offers new and uncharted paths. Where it is controlled by small-minded and fearful, it creates new stalemates. Denies the natural sickness of things, blunts the blade of randomness.
It is regrettable that the Red Hand amounted to the latter. These are not the reports of a man enraptured by possibility. They are arid and deadened.
But the son has eclipsed the father. Like you, his ordinary life was denied him, and he has adapted to the unknown. This pleases us.

Deja vu, it's like this guy was one of ours. I wouldn't say bedside manner is a criteria we value when recruiting R&D.
But his memoirs might as well stay in the family. There's not a lot of mileage we can get our of pre-Cold War research now, and besides, do you know how hard it is to find a real vampire in the US? A few came over with the Euros, they left some hangers-on in LA, but really they went out with teased hair.
What I'm saying is, don't think of extermination as such a heavy word.

These notes spell out that Varias senior did at least cling to a shred of ethics. Vasile may find some small closure in it, and bring his search to an end.
As for our interests, it seems the "arrangement" between the scientists of the Red Hand and their vampiric subjects was in no way voluntary. These creatures were dominated, somehow. It is depressingly unlikely that the Red Hand alone could command such fear and respect.
No, that falls to another power. Dare I hazard, the same one that could drive an undead army in this day and age? I believe I just did.
