"Yes. The Revelation only happened a few years back, and many of us are still against it. It occurred when a Japanese company made a synthetic blood that couldn't be used for human transfusion, but is palpable to us and nourishes us as blood is able to. A vampire-owned company picked it up, and mass produced and marketed it, in time with the great Reveal. There are humans who support us and our cause, and some humans who even are mystified by the appeal, the draw. Though there are some institutions, some sects of humans, that think we're evil, that would do anything to destroy us." Erik pulled out a bottle and took a sniff of it, tilting his head with a considering expression, before taking a sip.
"It needs some tweaking," said Erik, "But it's good." He took another drink of it and looked around. "I'm considering remodeling. Making this a vampire club, like the ones we had in my world. If we could come to an agreement, Malakai, you and I could make a good profit off of this drink. Humans are also curious as to the taste - they will pay for a bottle just for a sip."
