Summary
THIS IS A GUIDE DOCUMENT - NOT A FIC
Prince Lestat is meant to be read as a sequel to Queen of the Damned and, structurally, its many view points succeeds in that goal. However, thematically, there was so much a missed opportunity in actually seeing many of our favourite characters still existing in the aftermath of maybe as little as a decade still scrambling with the grief and loss and so many abruptly silenced minds...
But then the tension begins to build again.
Slowly, at first. Disconnected fragments across the continents of the world.
Because it's not like these immortals have ever been the best at communicating directly.

Summary
Shortly after Queen of the Damned and 'The Devil's Minion', Armand's left alone and desolate in Night Island, his only fledgling having abandoned him. Thankfully, Louis still holds enough affection for the vampire he once found in Paris to help him through.
I couldn't find any fics that extrapolated on missing scenes of Louis and Armand’s companionship between Night Island and the forming of their home in Trinity Gate. This fic fills that gap.

Summary
"Prince Lestat I will be," I said. "That is the term that's been offered to me over and over in one form or another, it seems. And my court shall be in my castle, and I invite all of you to come there and help forge the constitution and the rules by which we'll live. I will need your help in deciding a multitude of questions. And I will delegate to those of you who are receptive various tasks to help us move to a new and glorious existence which I hope that all the blood drinkers of the world will come to share."
From the initial gathering at Trinity Gate, this fic explores the final trilogy, the initial shaping of a political and vibrant court around the new Prince Lestat, plays and music and immortal Friday night balls, all leading up to the abduction of Louis.
Sorry to anyone who liked AR’s “here there be aliens” plot. This fic isn’t gonna go there.

Summary
Without Daniel, it was all Armand could do to linger on thoughts and memories that were the only things Daniel had left behind.
Armand had watched Daniel talking with Khayman. Watched the way his beautiful fledgling shone under the attention of the oldest immortal he’d yet met.
Older than Armand.
Older than Marius.
Only once before had Armand veered near to the subject of older immortals, telling Daniel only he did not know either names or faces for them.
From the time after Akasha's demise—and the Great Vampire Roadtrip from Sonoma to Miami—to the time of Armand walking into the sun, this is the story of Marius, Daniel and Armand.
