There are only five that’s it,

we vampire are so few, but so powerful. See the legend of creation is one everyone knows. God created the earth in 7 days; he created everything, even us. Most people believe we are evil. This is not true. We are good beings but he blessed us with the knowledge of the ages. when god created us to look over the earth, he made us omniscient, i know for a fact i will die nineteen-hundred and fourteen years after the death of our lord on the twenty-second day of Epip. I am the only one of my brothers that will perish before the end of creation, for i am the only one that will break our pact made to our lord, to never create another. For i am one of 5 and the only that does not burn with the sun.

the knowledge and traits i possess will be given to the one whom i turn, and the man i turn shall help to save creation from the greatest darkness that has

lived in our plane. For it had to be him, I could never have done it, for my age has made me apathetic to the needs of humankind.

Amun stepped into the open air, the sun was just above the mountains letting off a reddish yellow glow, he could feel a warm wind on his face, and the sand on his feet, if he had known this would be the last time he would feel the wind he would have taken more time to enjoy it's presence. He would have taken a minute to enjoy life, to thank iris for his wife and kids, and thank Ra for the prestige given to him by pharaoh Menes, although some called the pharaoh a cruel evil man, he did not know what they were talking about, while the

pharaoh’s masks where at times unsettling. They were a symbol of his power and his ownership of Egypt. But today Amun was happy, for he had been summoned by the pharaoh this day for a private meeting, He was sure to promote Amun, to make him the regent prince. The pharaoh had no children so he must pick one of his overseers to ascend to the throne. Amun knew it would be him. As Amun walked to the royal palace people in the streets glanced at him, whispers of death were spoken of him, people seemed to think he was about to die. Amun knew the whispers must be a lie; he had never done anything to displease the pharaoh, anytime the pharaoh had requested his presence it had been to commend him, not ever to punish him, and Amun had not a single scar from another’s whip.

So he dismissed the thoughts as false, but the thought lingered in the back of his mind, he knew the rumors about the pharaoh that he was a vampire, due to his masks he wore when he was out in public, but Amun knew that had to be false, for such a thing could not exist. So Amun walked to the palace deep in his thoughts not speaking to a single person along the way. As he arrived at the palace the pharaoh greeted him himself and welcomed him to his chambers, Amun relaxed a little until the pharaoh turned around only his eyes were not eyes, they were simply black holes consuming all light on his face, and two large fangs protruded out of his mouth as the pharaoh smiled. Amun's heart sank and he nearly wept, but the pharaoh spoke to him "Do not fear me, I mean you no harm. This is a gift I’m giving to you, a gift from my creator.” Amun lifted his head and spoke “And who is your creator mighty pharaoh, Lord Ra would never create something like you!” Amun had filled his voice with as much hatred and courage as he could muster in the face of such a being. The pharaoh’s eyes went back to normal and he spoke softly “No, I am not a creation of Ra, I am a creation of someone infinitely more powerful and wiser, see my son there is a being out there who created all of this, our world, me, you, even the slaves which we command. When he created this world he set me as one of five of its caretakers, we are powerful beings, un-ageing, faster than anything that exists now or will exist ever, we can see all of time. It is curse as much as a blessing and i have no desire to carry on anymore, i have existed for countless years before my brothers and i was created as an all knowing being. I wish for you to take my place as the caretaker, you will go on to be a great man, people will know your name one day as the savior of great men and nations. and the gifts to me from our lord to me will be passed on to you, the sun will always be your ally even in your darkest hour” the pharaoh was staring at Amun for what seemed even to him to be an eternity before he received an answer “My pharaoh, i am your most loyal servant, and i have always done as you commanded, you know that.” Amun looked at the pharaoh with sad eyes, and told him “this is not a command, this is your choice, i am asking, do you wish to take the place imparted to me, by the grand creator of our world, for i have become apathetic to the needs of man, my age makes it difficult to realize when man is in true need of help" Amun stared at the pharaoh for a long minute before he answered "my pharaoh, my
