Global Icebound Fortress of Apocalypse

7000 years ago, the vampire Coven and lycan pack were led by two brothers, Walter and Falcon. Despite their differences, they shared the same space. Then, a prophecy emerged, foretelling the rise of a hybrid born from a vampire and a human mother, carrying the blood of a lycan. This hybrid would possess unparalleled powers and abilities, leading to a blood war that would mark the end of the ages.

The arrival of this prophecy created chaos between the two brothers. It worsened when a new species of vampires, known as hunters, emerged. Unlike regular vampires, hunters could withstand sunlight, consume any food, and mate with anyone. Walter became a hunter after developing these signs, and Falcon grew fearful of his brother's potential role in fulfilling the prophecy. Consumed by fear of his own defeat, Falcon decided to eliminate all the hunters to prevent the prophecy from coming true. He waged a rebellion and killed all the hunters, except for Walter, who managed to escape. In response, the vampires fought back and banished the Lycans into exile.

Years later, Raymond entered a room where his pregnant human partner, Vanessa, peacefully slept. As a vampire hunter, their bond was unbreakable, and it allowed Vanessa to carry their child. After briefly cherishing the moment, Raymond put on his jacket and left the house.

At the Vampire Coven, Raymond entered through a large gate. Craven expressed concerns about Raymond's risks, emphasizing that just because he was a hunter who could mate with humans did not mean it was wise to do so. Raymond dismissed the concerns, teasing Craven about his worry over Vanessa. However, Craven proceeded to inform Raymond that the Lycans had become more powerful and were likely to do anything to prevent the fulfillment of the prophecy. Recognizing the potential danger, Raymond vowed to be cautious and asserted that if the Lycans sought trouble, he would give it to them.
