[Poggio]

Collin was woken up midway through the night by the sounds of arguing. When he went to investigate his brothers we already down stairs along with his parents. They had been having a heated debate over whither to stay neutral. His mother seemed to think the new vampires would not have respect for their privacy, and giving them a seaport was a bad idea which invited all kinds of illegal activity. It was then that Collin pointed out he was friends with the current vampire lords, which earned him all kinds of strange looks and an even longer talk with his family.
