what the vampire told me

Dying is more work than you might think. You humans regard it as a place you fall to, to avoid it whatever the cost. But once you've been through it, it's actually quite an achievement.

Sure, vampires also stop being vampires, and stop sharing your world. But we can't die, that's already happened. Like you, we each only get one death per customer. What happens next is as much a mystery to us as it is to you. The main difference is by then, we're no longer afraid of it.
