Darkness is a funny thing. People's minds are often programmed to be scared of it, constant nightmares of something lurking in it catching up to them while wandering in the darkness. It is often portrayed as a source of displeasure and misfortune as well.
However, the darkness is very different from as it was depicted. Only those who had embraced it with open arms would understand that darkness was nothing to be worried or afraid about. After all, darkness itself was lonely and all it wants is to have someone embrace it just as one would embrace the first light after hours of darkness.
It was just a misunderstood entity that could be someone's greatest ally, if only they began trusting it. Vampires were the first to do so, and now their strength remained unrivalled as they ruled over half of the earth's population.
