A Double-Edged Sword

In 1339 AD in the country of Sunrisen, Antony Scott of Westridge is mysteriously murdered while his party is visiting the Ravehaven province. The only clue besides a dagger wound Ravehaven's lord, Randall Halle, discovers on the body are two apparent bite marks. As Randall investigates the possible motive behind Antony's murder, he learns it was only part of a much larger plot, one that involves thought-to-be-legend vampires and even himself.
Vera Yate from The Sisters territory learns of Antony's death and becomes determined to find the truth when she and her brother are attacked by a member of the undead on a rainy night. With a small band, she journeys to find the one person who could provide information on vampires, strangely, a Benedictine monk. Meanwhile, a girl named Emma Savage is abducted by strangers alongside others, including what's revealed to be a vampire named Lewis.
After escaping but suffering a mortal wound, Lewis turns Emma into a vampire spawn in order to save her life, but abandons her shortly afterwards. She is left in the hands of a vampire clan, causing her to struggle with deserting her simplistic, past life as a farmer's daughter and embracing the present moral and emotional difficulties of surviving as a vampire. All the while, Emma's past captors continue their pursuit of her.
