Coming from such turbulent beginnings, I am all but shocked to find myself here, in this place with what I have come to know of as my family, I still look back and wonder how I ever managed to be this fortunate. Though I come from a long line of Mayfair witches, my heritage is not all that governs my spirit. To describe myself to anyone would be complicated. I am half witch, half vampire; able to connect to the spirit realms. I was once told that the clock did not tick for me; it held true, for time has no hold upon me. I have defied death more than once, and the events surrounding my return remain unclear to all. All I really know is that I’m here, in New Orleans, which has become dearer to me over time. The house I live in, restored to its former beauty, by one I cherish above all else.

Louis de Pointe du Lac; maker, lover, friend. Our history is not long in years though long in experiences. Many things have passed between us since the time I cast a spell on him to find love with me. :laughing gently: Of course he will tell you that he already had love in his heart for me, I believe that is still in debate. Nevertheless, today that is of no consequence for we are here now and that is what counts.

So, travelers of myth, legend, and stories of old, if you find yourself here, feel free to browse through my words. Soak up my history to understand the real Merrick Mayfair. Then, while you’re at it, explore the place I call my home. Immortal Sojourns. All are welcome, visit often, and stay long.

Merrick Mayfair, 2008.
