The Librarian: The Curse of the Judas Chalice Page #6

---

Is there...

Are you with somebody?

No. There was somebody a long time

ago. But not for many years.

Why?

Well...um...hey.

- I hate to say goodnight, but...

- Then why say goodnight?

Any sign of them?

No. The professor?

He made good translation from wax.

Went to bed hours ago.

We'll deal with them when

we cross paths again.

Giorgi take over for George.

Who's there?

Simone?

Chalice.

What chalice?

- Shave'll take that hangover off.

- Shows, huh?

New Orleans badge of honor, son.

I got the blues...

Looks like you got 'em worse, though

That's a new one.

Welcome. Welcome.

Come, sit down.

Enjoying New Orleans, Flynn?

What you know about this?

- I have no idea it's your vacation.

- HA!

It's early 1800's

Markings are a mixture of Latin

Vulgate, early Romance with a

spiffy transcription cipher

What does it say?

Even into her night, the Queen of the

Loa guards the cup of the dagger man.

- A riddle?

- Exactly.

- I haven't cracked the first part, yet

- What about the second half?

The man's dagger in Latin is "icarius" which

is believed to be the etymology of "iscariot"

as in Judas Iscariot.

The cup of the dagger man is...

This is about the Judas Chalice.

You know of it?

The chalice made of the 30 pieces of silver

given to Judas Iscariot to betray Christ.

What about the rest of the legend?

Power of the Chalice to resurrect

- A vamp...

- Don't say it. It's ridiculous.

You've seen a lot of

strange things, Flynn.

Vampires, Judson?

What would the chalice even

have to do with vampires?

Judas Iscariot hanged himself

from a tree after the betrayal.

Cursed by God to wanter the

land forever. The first vampire.

You buy that?

Well, that would explain the

vampire's aversion to silver

Due to the original 30 coins. Their

hatred of the cross. Holy water.

And the wooden stake?

Not just any wood, a stake of Aspen,

the tree from which Judas hanged himself.

It's the only way to kill a true vampire.

So the power of the Chalice to

resurrect dead vampires and to

bestow upon a living vampire ultimate

strength and speed - that's real?

That's a very good question.

Another good question is

why would someone dig up

the grave of Vlad Dracul?

Dracula?

Yes, they raided his tomb

and his coffin was stolen.

Okay, so somebody's looking for a

chalice that resurrects dead vampires

at the same time that Dracula's

body's gone missing?

That's not good.

Hey, Judson!

The Chalice was hidden by

French monks in the 15th century.

Then later they moved it as far

away from Romania as they could.

Across the ocean? Oh of course!

'Cause New Orleans was a French territory.

So the Chalice is...

The Chalice is here!
