"Now that is a different matter." Armata sets his wine down on a small table next to his throne. "I have met some of the old lords, but I have never fought one. To do so is forbidden in my world. After a certain number of millennia, a Vampire of great power is given the title of 'elder'. Most at that point seclude themselves from the world. Thus becoming 'unseen' elders. Often times these unseen are far more powerful than the higher Vampires."
