The Black Count has been tasked by His Imperial Ipsissimality, the Black Emperor, to guard a border between the Lands of Dream and the Waking World, for the separating membrane between the two worlds was wounded were the ruins of ancient Niarath and the now forgotten village of Raven's Hollow can meet, creating thus a unique little world of In-Between that has drawn parts of both worlds into it. The reward for such service was deathlessness for the Count and his beloved Lady Eleanor and lordship over that threshold world. They were given a manor filled with unique marvels and manned with countless shadow-servants. They were taught powerful magick unbound by mortal morality, with which they could command the shadows and have lordship over every spirit, demon and angel, magick that allowed them to create the beautiful things that until then lived only in their art. Yet their happiness would not be everlasting; for even mightier than the Black Emperor -indeed the most powerful being amongst the planes bound to our Sun- is Death, the Ultimate Queen, embodiment of the Idea of Decay, active function of the Godmachine and the last waking Archon.

So the Count removed the mists that hid the estate and cast spells that would lure travelers into the house. Many died to feed the undead Countess and satisfy her unstoppable thirst. Many years passed and, although Eleanor's body was glowing with life, her eyes only showed death and that was the reason the Count became sober and his heart was filled with horror and disgust. All his memories of his old happiness faded away and he stopped feeding the Countess, until that stormy night came when she fell asleep and he placed her in the tomb near the church. The Count's love for his beloved wife never faded. Sometimes he visits her and plays her favorite melody with his violin and gives her some of his blood, awakening her from her sleep.
