There are some other vampires here, but our numbers have always been few as we come and go, the same as other Star Children save the dearth of us makes each loss felt all the more. Blood is a source of life for some vampires but not me, and I drink synthetic blood not human blood. You may inspect a vial of the synthetic blood sometime if you wish. I would be surprised if it gives off anything of the Force, but perhaps vampires have created some life despite the only intention being to break the dependence (and feeding) on humans.

As someone functionally immortal, unless something should happen to me, death will come in time. It always does. If nothing else, the universe one day shall end and him along with it. You may have to wait for him for some time, but he will come. I am sure of it.

I would like that. It is interesting to see how the Force flows through some items because they contain a form of life just like sapient species do.

That is a comforting thought, to know we will not be parted for all eternity, but only for a vast amount of time.

[whowillmourn]

As good as synthetic blood works, I cannot claim to understand everything about it, nor indeed everything about the drive for blood which led to its development, for it is well known in my world that vampires can live without drinking blood of any kind. It is only a difficulty in the mind, a psychological need, that must be addressed.

I am glad for the comfort it brings and am certain in the joy you two will have each time you reunite.

[survivalthroughhate]

Fascinating. A species that can live for an eternity should nothing happen to cause them to otherwise perish and without any of the typical needs of species that age. I am sure there are scientists that would be happy to live a full lifetime simply studying your species.

The joy will be create indeed, enough to create another star if it was put out there physically in the universe.

[whowillmourn]

We studied ourselves, and our science went far beyond human understanding. Some things remain a mystery, even as we now die out of existence. Perhaps it was a flaw in our being or only natural that a species that otherwise cannot die would cause their own destruction.

A beautiful way to think about the stars. It means there's a vast amount of love in the universe, more than we've counted.

[survivalthroughhate]

If you cannot die, I feel inertia is bound to set in at some point, especially if there is not anything motivating a species to continue onwards and push themselves forward instead.

I am not much of a poetic sort but occasionally I can find a beautiful turn of phrase.

[whowillmourn]

There was plenty more vampires wished to accomplish, though we were no monolith in agreement as to what exactly that should be. It does not require inertia to cause destruction. That very ambition can drive one toward it much the same.

A blessing of the use of language.

[survivalthroughhate]

Your world truly sounds fascinating. If this place ever allows us to visit a facsimile of it or the genuine article, I would like to, if only to see what you speak of firsthand.

A true compliment from one so eloquent as you. I still have that quote you told me once framed on my wall in beautiful calligraphy. I ponder it from time to time.

[whowillmourn]

It happened once before in Trench. Should it happen here, I am willing to accompany you, for you would not be welcomed warmly by vampire kind, at least outside my family.

So our legacies are parts of ourselves we do not predict, much as we cannot always know the effects we have on others.

[survivalthroughhate]

One must never say never in this place, so I shall hope it happens and I can see your home. It seems like it would be a fascinating experience.

As usual, well said my friend.

[whowillmourn]

Yet I do not miss it myself, not the world itself, not the Frontier, not vampire civilization at its peak. All I miss are people, and I have long had to come to terms with those feelings.
