Vampires · Era III, The Long Middle
1919 — Mikael Comes
Mikael tracked his children to New Orleans and burned the opera house down around them. Klaus ran, Rebekah was daggered for calling her father there, Marcel was left for dead, and the family did not return for ninety years.
Details
- This is also the era Klaus spends in Chicago with Stefan — the "ripper years" that resurface, weaponised, in 2011.
- Rebekah summoned Mikael, hoping he would kill Klaus and free her to live with Marcel. He nearly killed everyone instead.
- Klaus daggered Rebekah for it and left her in a box for decades, then told Marcel she had abandoned him.
- The same era gives Klaus his Chicago period with Stefan and Rebekah — the "ripper years" that Klaus reactivates in 2011 as a weapon.
