First: Good story!

Second: Now I'm interested in...Dracula's grandsire, I guess? He's one of those things that are just so strange, so darkly majestic, you really have to know more about this guy. Who and what is he, how did he end up bound there, was he lying about wanting to die or not?

Not a lot of stories can do that, show that primal sense of wonder and horror. So good job.
