Vesuvian man, Vesuvian Man Where For Art Thou, Vesuvian Man?

Excerpt from the early Rome years:

So after gaining a portion of old town to have as our own. Letting our tradesman ghouls and vampires rebuild the city day and night, we, my friends and I continued on an even farther goal. The culmination of research into the histories and treatises of the vampire race. Copying texts, translating, obtaining at any cost, collecting, and  listening.  I am still searching for the Brujah elder or news of his whereabouts.  Rome is a city of decadence. We want for nothing but information and finishing our buildings covering many city blocks with catacombs beneath. Ghoul scribes. I am so tired from keeping ghouls and the blood they require but they serve their use and in the end the work would never be completed if left up to me.
It seems a world away.
That boy who was scared to be drafted into the legion. Who went on to become a general, and somehow end up here..a vampire with that Rome a distant memory. Having been 'alive' now for over 4 lifetimes the sense of time has stretched and it feels more important to enjoy the day or concentrate on a plan of action. It is easy to fall into a deep reverie at nearly any time with thoughts and memories flooding back across time, snatching you out of this one, but I have now learned to sharpen my time sense to make others fall into a deep reverie of memories now as well, a useful trick.
pages later:
I grow weary of staying in one place for to long.

Just Can't Loose That Falling Feeling

Journal excerpt from Marcus Bellecus
Returning to sleep with the Setites, we were awakened by the sounds of fighting in our sleeping chamber. Rising and slaughtering Germanics, we made our way, fighting every step of the way, back to the field of battle all the while looking for Oddessar, the werewolf, as his army sacked and destroy Rome. Fighting a swath outside the walls we find all the werewolves not even fighting and just watching from the hills outside the city.  I realized at this time that saving Rome was already lost  and made ready to parley with Oddessar. The wolven delegation escorted us to the 'new king of  Rome' where I told him he had won the day and that Rome was his. Suprised, he granted us free roam in his lands. We departed for the steps  of Vesuvius to excavate the Minotaurs treasure. In six months we had recovered the treasure, and amassed a sizeable force or ghouls and tradesman. We returned to Rome to compile research on vampire lore, specifically Iyles, the Brujah antediluvian and his current whereabouts. Oddessar is very happy to use our tradesmen to rebuild Rome and gives us a portion of the old city as our own. Years pass in research, a delegation of ghoul historians and researchers travel to Carthage to obtain any information on vampires.
