Tzaryd Versus Dracula

Synopsis

"There is the hunter within me that longs for the kill." The Count would not abandon the topic. "Suppose one were a natural killer, a predator at the apex of the food chain, near 'super human,' to quote Nietzsche. Suppose another were a creature of myth, let us say: not superhuman but supernatural. Africa is rife with myths of skin changers: legends of were-creatures and supernatural marauders." A flush came over the aristocrat as he spoke, his blood rising to match his fervor. Tžaryd was caught up in the man's argument now and his pulse quickened also. He knew this other man to be more than he appeared. There was something dangerous, rapacious about his demeanor. But he was guest and must see this drama played out.
