Okay, finally posted. In case it wasn't fully clear, we're going with path two, but we're doing it for selfish reasons, because that's the kind of delusional sap we are.
Coolio. Now I can get started writing everyone else's.

Demi-- Vykdyti is not a Gern-- Becoming a pureblood does not mean that one is a member of the royal family, and being an actual Gern, does not mean one is in line for the throne. becoming king or queen of Clan Gern means that you are the most capable. Lexius is, well Lexius-- a drunken baffoon, and lecherous pig-- So Vykdyti, a capable assassin and spymaster, became second in line. Plus she is the mother figure for all Clan Gern Vampires, and has the respect of all vampires in the clan. She's a perfect choice for successor in that regard
It is all about how capable one is. Hence how a Mirta came to outmaneuver her dolt of a husband and become Queen.
That detail of her being a Gern is bugging me somewhat, even though it is no big deal.

Hey azi, should I answer Atara's post before you post again in omega?
You certainly can if you want. I will be writing up the next round for Omega tonight, so you might have enough time to slip in a response.
