The Omega sees this as an unfair advantage. As a result of this conversation, Butch insists that Vishous is out of the field for his safety, as he means as much as Butch does to end the war. She changes the course of the war between lessers and vampires by visiting Butch. She chose to pass away and gave her power to Lassiter to rule in her stead. Figuring out what she had given up, he brought her birds to fill her tree again. Įven after this, she sacrificed her only friendship and source of comfort, her birds, so that her son could have his shellan back as a ghost. When Phury volunteers to take Vishous' place, she permits him to because she knows Vishous is in love with 'that human surgeon.' Additionally, she renounces him as her son, freeing them both of all responsibilities to the other. Just before Vishous' 303rd birthday, she reveals that she's his mother and that she has decided he will become the next Primale who mate with her Chosen to produce the next generation of Brothers and Chosen. In an attempt to protect Payne, who had inherited the Bloodletter's warrior nature and therefore didn't fit into the ranks of the Chosen or really any of the roles available to noble females, she put her daughter into suspended animation in the early 19th century. Although she gave Vishous over to the Bloodletter, she was aware of the abuse V suffered and she was forced to suffer, too. She had the ability to control how many children she conceived and their genders she chose to bear a boy and a girl. The form she took almost didn't survive the mating. The Scribe Virgin would get him after that period. They agreed that he would gain custody of Vishous on his third birthday and have him for three centuries, training him as a warrior. Suspecting who she was and what she wanted, the Bloodletter refused to give her his seed unless he got custody of any male children. In 1701, the Scribe Virgin came to the Bloodletter because she wanted to physically experience conception and birth.

When the Scribe Virgin and her brother, the Omega, came into being, she was given the ability to create only once, thus setting off a war wherein the Omega's followers are set to exterminate the vampire race.
