Njengokujikeleza kwe Iidayari zevamphaya , Abokuqala iza nempahla eninzi. Abantu baliva igama uKlaus Mikaelson kwaye bacinga ukuba yenye nje yedrama ye-sappy egxile kwimicimbi yosapho yakhe engasebenzi kakuhle. Inyani yento yile nto iyiyo kakhulu ngakumbi ngaphezu koko.
Ukuqala, umboniso wenzeka eNew Orleans-imbiza yokunyibilika yesixeko esinembali etyebileyo kunye nenkcubeko etyebileyo. Yenye yeedrama ezimbalwa ezingaphezu kwendalo ezithatha ingqalelo yokukhumbula ukuba ayisiyiyo kuphela ukuba kubekho abantu abamnyama, kodwa banokuba yinxalenye yebali.
Ndiyabona ukuba noMarcel Gerard, vampire okrelekrele nonobuchule onokuphikisana nosapho lukaMichaelelson okanye asindise ubomi babo ngalo naluphi na usuku. Wakhuliswa emfanekisweni kaKlaus emva kokuhlangulwa ebukhobokeni, kamva washiywa xa abantakwabo Mikaelson babaleka esixekweni besoyika utata wabo. Ukomelela kwakhe kungumqondiso wezigidi zabantu baseAfrika abanyanzelwe ukuba bazimele bakuba ubukhoboka buphelisiwe kwaye bakhululwa. Njengabantu abomeleleyo abanobomi bokwakha ubomi babo, wakha i-New Orleans kwaye waseka inkqubo ephucukileyo apho ii-vampires zondla kuphela kubakhenkethi ngelixa amagqwirha neengcuka begcinwe zikhona. Kodwa kuphela yinxalenye yento emenza abe mkhulu.
Eyona nto ndiyithandayo kuMarcel kukuba akoyiki ukuthatha indawo. Akoyiki ukubakho. Ufuna kuphela ukwamkelwa, kodwa imbeko kwanokungeniswa. Akoyiki kwaye ukulungele ukuma nakubani na, nkqu noKlaus Mikaelson, obonwa njengeyona vampire iyingozi kwaye ikhohlakeleyo emhlabeni.
Xa ndandiyekile kwiminyaka eli-100 eyadlulayo, wawusisiqhushumbisi esincinci esangcangcazelayo kwimivumbo yabo babekugcina phantsi kwaye ngoku bajonge kuwe, inkosi yesizinda sakho… iNkosana yesixeko, uKlaus uthi kuye Isiqendu sokulinga ngaphambi kokubuza ukuba ukwazile njani ukwenza i-utopia enjalo ye-vampires.
Ngoba? Unomona? UMarcel uyaphendula. Ngaba ufuna ukudlula? Ufuna ukuhlala ithutyana? Kakhulu. Yintoni eyam yeyakho, kodwa injalo yam . Ikhaya lam. Usapho lwam. Imithetho yam .... kwaye andiyonkosana yekota, sihlobo, ndinguKUMKANI!
Ngaphandle kwenkqubela phambili yeTV kwiminyaka yakutshanje, kunqabile ukubona umntu omnyama onamandla onje engathandabuzi ukuba ungubani na kwaye yintoni ayifezileyo, ngakumbi kolu hlobo. Andizukubona abantu abajongeka ngathi bayaphumelela njengaye (nangona ebethelela phantsi okoko engenguye ophambili), ndiye ndacinga ukuba uzakufa rhoqo kumaxesha amathathu okuqala omboniso.
Kodwa uMarcel uhlala iveki neveki kwaye andinakonwaba. Nguye, nangayiphi na indlela, ugqibelele kwaye akakhuselekanga ekwenzeni izinto ezimbi okanye ekwenzeni izigqibo ezoyikisayo, kodwa bubuhle besimilo sakhe. Unamandla kwaye umnyama ngokwemvelo. Kubonakala ngokukodwa kwimiboniso efana ne-WWII flashback apho yena kunye namanye amajoni amnyama ahlukeneyo ajikelezwe kwaye uya koyiswa. Endaweni yokuba ayeke ukuba afe, uwaguqula abe ziimvampires kwaye ke banako ukuthatha phantsi iintshaba zabo njengeyunithi eyoyikisayo. Isenokungabi yintombazana emnyama, kodwa loo ndawo yandenza ndaziva ndinamandla. Ndifuna ngaphezulu kwalonto.
Apho umboniso undithoba khona, nangona kunjalo, kukuzikhumbuza rhoqo ukuba ayisiyiyo eyona nkwenkwezi iphambili. Emva kokuchitha inkulungwane emisela isixeko esichumayo, amandla akhe akhutshwa ngokukhawuleza kuba uKlaus Mikaelson kufanelekile ukuba abe yinkosi yokwenyani. UMarcel wenza, emva kwayo yonke loo nto, wafunda yonke into ayaziyo kuye. Kwaye ayisiyiyo kuphela ukuba uMarcel ayamkele le nto, kulindeleke ukuba angenise kwintando yabo phantsi kobuhlobo bosapho nangona babemphatha kakubi amaxesha ngamaxesha. Oku kuguquka okungenampilo akunjalo ngokungafaniyo kubukhoboka awaba nabo xa wayeyinkwenkwe; yilento nje ngoku angoyikiyo ukuzimela.
UMarcel ngumlilo, amandla kunye namandla endikulangazelele ukuwubona kumlinganiswa omnyama kolu hlobo kwaye ngoku elutshaba lwamaMikaelsons, ndinexhala lokuba kuzakwenzeka ntoni kuye. Njengoko sibonile ngemiboniso efana Umngxunya wolala , nokuba lukhokelo alukwenzi ukhuseleke. Ngethemba, uzakuqhubeka esenza into ayenzileyo amaxesha amaninzi ngaphambili kwaye aphile. Ndiyamdinga ukuba.
