Dracula
In 1462, Constantinople fell. Hordes of Muslim Turks invaded Europe, threatening Christianity. In Transylvania, a brave warrior stood up against them. Dracul. Before the decisive battle, his fiancée Elizabeth... knew what enormous force he would have to confront, and that he might not return alive. Glory to Thee, Lord! I won! Elizabeth... The treacherous Turks planted a note in the castle. It talked about the death of Dracula. Elizabeth, having learned about this, threw herself into the river. My prince has died. Life without him has no meaning. May the Lord unite us in heaven. She took her own life. There is no salvation for her. She's cursed. These are God's laws. “I defended God’s Church!” - Don't blaspheme. I reject God! I will rise... - and take revenge with all the forces of Darkness! Blood is life, and it will belong to me! STOKER'S DRACULA LONDON, 1897 FOUR CENTURIES LATER LUNATE HOSPITAL I have done everything as you commanded, Lord! All preparatory work is completed.

May 25, Budapest. Leaving Budapest early in the morning... I felt that the West was ending... DIARY MAY 25 We are going to the very east of the country. This is at the junction of Transylvania, Moldova and Bukovina... in the Carpathian Mountains. One of the wildest corners of Europe. Welcome to the Carpathians, my friend. I look forward to seeing you with great impatience. My carriage will be waiting for you at the Borgo Pass. I hope the trip went well. I also hope you enjoy your stay in our area. Your friend... D. Diary, May 25. My dear Jonathan has been gone for almost a week. I wanted us to get married before he left, but I’m glad that he was entrusted with such a responsible mission. It's so great that he will visit abroad. I don’t know if we will be able to visit there together later. We're too early, coachman. There's no one yet. Death moves quickly. My dear, how far is it from the castle? Welcome to my home. Come in of your own free will and share with us the joy of your arrival. - Count Dracula? - Yes, I am Dracula. And I respectfully welcome you to my castle, Mister
The abnormal always starts from his own goal. I wish I knew how much he values his human life.
Renfield's abnormality becomes more and more interesting. Some of his character traits are especially strongly developed: selfishness, secrecy, stubbornness.
Little child, your sincerity and honesty have made me your friend; keep in mind, this is less common than a lover; at least the friend is less selfish.
And despair has its good sides...
The water sleeps, but the enemy never closes his eyes.
How strange it is that exactly what I was hostile to and what I was accustomed to look at as idolatry, in days of loneliness and anxiety, is my only support and consolation.
...Madness is easier to bear than such reality...
You do not think that there are things that you do not understand, but which nevertheless exist, that there are people who see what another cannot see; but keep in mind, there are things that you just can't see. This is the mistake of our science: it wants to explain everything, and if this fails, it claims that it cannot be explained at all.
I can't let him notice what a crybaby I've become. This, in my opinion, is one of the main commandments that we poor women must firmly grasp.
How pleasant it was to see the clouds running across the sky, and the flickering of moonlight in the gaps - isn’t that how joys and sorrows alternate in human life?
Bridesmaids delight the eyes of those who are expecting the bride, but when the bride appears, they stop noticing them.
Although sympathy cannot change circumstances, it can make them more bearable.
Can you explain why a turtle lives longer than entire generations of people? Why does an elephant survive entire dynasties and why does a parrot die only from a cat or dog bite, and not from other ailments? Could you explain why people of all ages and places believe that there are people who could live forever if their existence were not violently terminated, that there are men and women who cannot die? We all know - because science confirms the facts - that toads lived for thousands of years, walled up in rocks.
Oh, my dear, if I am destined to die at the hands of anyone, then let it be the hand of the one who loves me the most.
Don't forget the old truth - you have to hurry slowly.
I have been so long master, that I would be master still - or at least that none other should be master of me. /I have been the master for so long that I will continue to be the master - or at least no one will ever be my master.
Life is nothing more than an expectation of something greater than the vanity here, and death is the only thing we really hope for.

What is shown in the movie "Dracula" (2014)?
MEGA GAME
Lifting the Curtain: What Game? Who's playing? What role do forum members play? Possible role of Ace in the Game.
Let's solve one puzzle with me.
A lot is said on the website (and on the forum) of Asa about finding us (people) in the Game. Many have been here for a long time, some recently. Ace also talks about some MEGA GAME.
What game is this?
Who started the Game/war?
When did the MAIN Game begin in the 7th dimension (in our world)?
For your information:
What is the role of Ace in this Game? Who is he? Who could it be?
My thoughts: Ace has provided his website and forum as a PLAYGROUND. Who is he? Who could it be? Here are my guesses:
What is shown in the movie "Dracula" (2014)?
What coincidences!!!
Last shots of the film:
“ LET THE GAME BEGIN ,” said the immortal vampire.
Once upon a time, he was a man who summoned a demon from the depths of hell in order to bargain with him for dark power. The price was eternal imprisonment. The main character Vlad (Dracula) freed him in exchange for power to save his people and family.
One dialogue between the vampire and Vlad is interesting ( remember it, we will return to it later ):
“What kind of person seeks hope in the arms of death?”
- Desperate. The Turks are threatening to destroy my principality. Give me the strength to stop them, to protect my people, my family.
- How noble this is, Lord Impaler. Or is Dracula simply the son of the devil?
- You're wrong. This means son of the dragon, protector of the innocent.
“Do your people know how many innocents you have killed?” Seems like hundreds?
- Thousands.
- And when you impaled them, how did you feel? Shame? Horror? Strength?
- Nothing! I didn't feel anything! And this is the worst evil.
- So why shed blood, if not for pleasure?
- Because enemies are not afraid of swords. They are afraid of monsters and run from them. By cutting out one village, I saved 10 others. Sometimes the world doesn't need a hero. Sometimes he needs a monster.
The vampire warns Vlad that if he does not control his thirst for blood within 3 days, he will become evil like never before. He (the vampire) will gain freedom, and Vlad will belong to darkness, become its vessel
- And I will direct all my anger at that one. Who betrayed me and one day I will call you to serve me. You will become my pawn in an eternal game of retribution.
- This is not a game!
- Oh, what else is there to spend eternity on? For this is the Game of all Games. Light versus darkness. Hope versus despair. And the fate of the whole world hangs in the balance.
Vlad condemns himself to eternal evil in order to save his son at the request of his dying wife.
Who is this Vlad Dracula? In some ways he reminds me of Ace, who associates himself with the Assassins.

Only those who have known the horror of the night can understand the sweetness of the morning.
We must look at life broadly; we should not allow small, insignificant truths to suppress the great truth.
How happy are those whose lives pass without fear, without horrors, for whom sleep is the blessing of the night and brings nothing but sweet dreams (Lucy Westenra).
It seems to me that there is something in the very nature of a woman that allows men to open their souls to them, share feelings, without experiencing humiliation of male dignity.
No one but a woman can help a man when he has heartbreak; and there is no one to console him.
... to know is to love (Dracula).
There are reasons for things to be the way they are (Dracula).
The abnormal always starts from his own goal. I would like to know how much he values his human life (Dr. Seward).
Renfield's abnormality becomes more and more interesting. Some of his character traits are especially strongly developed: selfishness, secrecy, stubbornness (Dr. Seward).
Little child, your sincerity and honesty have made me your friend; keep in mind, this is less common than a lover; at least the friend is less selfish.
And despair has its good sides... (Jonathan Harker).
The water sleeps, but the enemy never closes his eyes.
How strange that the very thing that I was hostile to and which I was accustomed to look upon as idolatry, in days of loneliness and anxiety, is my only support and consolation (Jonathan Harker).
Here I am noble; I am a tycoon; all the people know me, and I am the master. But a foreigner in a foreign land is nothing; people don’t know him, but to know a person is to care about him (Dracula).

Bridesmaids delight the eyes of those who are expecting the bride, but when the bride appears, they stop noticing them (Renfield).
Although compassion cannot change circumstances, it can make them more bearable (Mina Murray).
Can you explain why a turtle lives longer than entire generations of people? Why does an elephant survive entire dynasties and why does a parrot die only from a cat or dog bite, and not from other ailments? Could you explain why people of all ages and places believe that there are people who could live forever if their existence were not violently terminated, that there are men and women who cannot die? We all know - because science confirms the facts - that toads lived for thousands of years, walled up in rocks. Can you tell me how an Indian fakir kills himself and forces himself to be buried; rye is sown on his grave; the rye ripens, it is reaped, it ripens again, and it is reaped again, then they dig up the grave, open the coffin, and a living fakir comes out of it and continues to live among people?
Oh, my dear, if I must die at the hands of anyone, let it be the hand of the one who loves me the most (Mina Murray).
