AN INTERVIEW WITH THE KARNSTEIN (PART 1) –

The History of the Karnstein and the Domina

BY: Pasha Braveheart

It was in the middle of night when I was summoned to the Bordello to interview the Domina, Liang Scorpio, of the bordello and leader of the Karnstein Debosciati Rose coven.   I was very nervous walking into the bordello since the last time I was there it was as summoned for a feeding by Lord Anton.  Looking around, I wondered if anyone was about.  It was unusually quiet, attributable, of course, to the after hour time frame when the less than wholesome activities are ceased for the evening.    I stood around fidgeting a bit until I heard the front doors open and I immediately recognized Lord Anton.   A chill went through my body as I recalled the evening I spent with him here.  It was true that the Karnstein had a power over humans to awaken the lustful feelings in them.  Need I say more?  He walked with a purpose to his stride directly up to me and motioned for me to ascend the steps to the parlor where he told me that Domina awaited me.  I respectfully gave him a quick curtsy and followed him up the stairs.  There the Domina waited, tapping her foot

impatiently, although I don’t believe I was late. 

I greeted the notoriously beautiful Domina with acurtsy and a smile.  Lord Anton took a seat and motioned for me to sit as well, while Domina gracefully positioned herself on the chase lounge..  taking the time to fix her skirt and smiling in her regal way. 

No sooner had I taken my seat and taken out my parchment and quill, than Lord Anton made it a point to remind me of the “dresscode” for the bordello.  Domina nodded her agreement and I sighed deeply placing my quill and parchment on the sidetable and standing to remove my clothing feeling relieved that I had remembered to wear underwear that evening.  I don’t recall ever conducting an interview in such a state of informality and blushed with embarrassment as I placed my clothing in a pile and once again took myseat feeling the lecherous eyes of Lord Anton upon me.

Tapping my quill to the parchment, I smiled as I pondered the first question.  Nodding my head in self approval of my first question as I begin to ask Domina to explain how the Karnstein, under her leadership, had come to run the bordello.   Domina took a sip of wine as she reflected on her response, “The Bordello di Venus Destato was established by our elder... Countess Carmilla Karnstein, unlike most dull chosen... her pursuits were for sexual pleasure, thus running the bordello is in our blood.”

Cringes at the mention of ‘blood’ and what itconjures up in my mind, yet maintains my composure to capture Domina’sthoughts.   With a look of insight and knowledge,she continued “I rose in the ranks the same way any strong willed Karnsteinigets anywhere in life... hard work, and many favors. I must admit, I had a lotof help from my current 2nd, Anton.  Ahh...what a lovely perverted chap he is. Claudia.. The former Domina saw greatpotential in me... and later granted me the high position of Primus (2nd).  Yet, my current rank is a result of a travesty.One cold misty morning Claudia's headless body was discovered in the center ofthe piazza... head impaled on a metal spike nearby. A warning written on her barechest... to me.  Alas, I simply picked upwhere my fallen leader left off.”

I pressed on asking Domina about the lofty goal ofthe Debosciati Rose coven, that being the never ending quest for sexual pleasure.   I wanted to know how she and the coven members go about supporting such a goal.  Domina let out a soft chuckle as she answered “Simple.. through day by day pleasures and sexual encounters. I also enjoy the practice of shibori... the art of binding ones form. I also study great works of libertine artists.”  Of the covenmembers she added, “They simply act like perverts. Spreading the ideal thatthere is nothing better than the hunt for sexual pleasure. It's the main thingthat sets us apart from other sabats.”  Iasked about those who work at the bordello, wondering as to their backgroundand their decision to offer themselves for the purpose of sexual pleasure.  She stared at me with some intensity as Iwondered if she was trying to recruit me. Brushing that though aside, I stared back at her until she respondedgiving no opening for her to pursue such an option for me, “Our women and men who work at the bordello are all humans, some here by force while others have made the decision to be here oftheir own free will.  Most simply wish tobe paid for giving pleasure, while others have sought protection and sexualpleasure from the bordello.  Being of

open mind, I rarely turn down any human who wishes to serve the Karnsteini.”

I inquired of the Domina’s management style to which she replied “I tend to be slightly on the easy going side. I encourage my coven members to explore their sexuality through openness... hosting events and simply acting like naughty chosen -- in bed where it counts. I only become strict if need be... and so far it has paid off nicely.”

As I wrapped up my interview with the Domina I askedher if there was anything she’d like to convey to the citizens of Venexia aboutthe Bordello.  Nodding her head, she said, without hesitation, “That our doors are always open. They should look topatron our human workers. After all, both chosen and human need sexual pleasure, regardless of what some prudes may think.   If you are in need of a little... sexual pleasure, stop by the bordello. If a madam or sir is on duty, feel free to flirt... leave your in hibitions at the door! Humans are welcome here... just don't complain if you get lured into service. If you are prudish, this honestly isn't the place for you. Those chosen who beat up the human workers, without paying for such service will find themselves either on the wrong end of a leash or hung out in front of the Bathory's cafe for their amusement.  As a final remark,Domina concluded, “As for the Karnstein? We are pleasure seekers... we don't dwell on silly matters such as clothing... or titles.... although, the cityshould come here and find out for themselves!"

I asked the Domina if any special events were comingup sponsored by the Karnstein.  She went

on to talk about the soon to be promoted roof top event at the bordello, “SultryWonderland”, where playfully and scary images of lustful creatures will dancearound you.  She added, “There will be a queen off! A battle, where ladies face off to take the title of Red Queen and lead the event in a grand group dance.   Lots of drug use! Bring your favorite opium pipe.As always,second floor will host a drug induced orgy! And best of all, there will be a

costume contest! 

A thousand gold coins to the one with the best!

 Five hundred for the runner up!"
