She grabs her hand, and starts talking about the history of the Elders, and their island, Danu Talis, or Atlantis. She explains how after the fall of Danu Talis, the Next Generation of Elders was, strange. Some were born half animal, half human, or an even stranger mix of the two. Some, were born without the ability to feel pain or emotion. These are the ones we call vampires. Some drink blood, some, like Scathach, absorb emotion, which is what she is doing to Sophie, absorbing her pain and fear. When Josh asks why vampires would absorb the emotions, Scatty responds with "So they can feel alove."</div>]]></description>
