[the Sphere flickers, coming to life. it focuses on a very much alive vampire, who looks as calm as can be. considering the state a few of the residents had seen him in two days ago, it seemed the ideal time to let the masses know he wasn't, well, dead]
To those who witnessed my unfortunate moment... My apologies you had to see that. I was not aware this bloody planet had a sun that would bring my death. It seems I will have to find a safe haven to retire before dawn.
When I awake a few hours before dusk, I will require blood almost immediately. I'm afraid I can no longer skip a day or two.
