I killed again last night. I’m getting scared, every night it becomes easier and easier. Last night was special though. It was gruesome and pointless. A woman with her small child was walking from her house to her car. I followed her home, I think I am beginning to get the hang of the plane-shifting and mind reading. When she got out of her car I shifted and walked right in her house behind her. I stalked her to the kitchen and when she opened the refrigerator I struck. I shifted back and slid my sword through her heart. I drank her blood. All of that seems normal by now, but what got to me is that I really wasn’t hungry. I just killed, for no reason. I am now a murderer, not just a hunter.
I heard the child in its crib screaming. I went to its room and held it. I could feel it’s young blood pumping, it was exhilarating. I thought about killing it too, and feasting, but then backed off the idea. In stead I held him against my chest and shifted. I know now that it was a mistake, but then, then I wasn’t thinking. The child was instantly transformed, as I was, when it came in contact with the phantom realm. The child was now a vampire like myself.
It will be several years before I can accurately tell what caste he will be, but I suspect he will be a rogue, a fighting wizard. I have since taken him back here, to my “cave”, where I write this. I pray that one day I can return to my native world with this diary, to share with the world my discoveries.
