Sandile and Fadzai go back to the beginning with mother of the Mikaelsons and creator of the Original vampires herself - Esther.
A witch from 10th-century Norway, she and her Viking husband* bring their children to far-back America in hopes of a better life. After their youngest dies in an accidental werewolf attack, they make the fateful decision to protect the rest of their children; they use magic to turn them into vampires, not knowing the bloodshed that will plague the world for centuries to come.
The Mystic Falls gang unwittingly resurrect Esther in the third season of The Vampire Diaries, seeking a weapon to finally be rid of Klaus Mikaelson. What they don't know is that Esther has been orchestrating her return for some time from beyond the veil, and seeks not only to kill her son, Klaus, but all the Originals so the world can be free of vampires.
*We do also talk about her husband, Mikael.
