Bonjour. I have a question for you all, if you'll indulge me.

How many of you here are immortal? Whether it be by natural means or otherwise. How do you feel about your immortality?

You don't need to tell me how or why you are, I'm simply curious. I myself have lived for 500 years, so I'm looking for kindred spirits, one might say.

Of course if you're not immortal and you know someone who is, I'd be glad to hear that as well. This platform was made to share opinions, correct? I'd enjoy having everyone's different perspectives.

All the best,
Comte de Saint-Germain

Perhaps I will sometime, it's good to see that people have been more accepting of those that aren't fully human here. But there's still some comfort in getting to know others that may have similar feelings on a number of matters.

Thank you, sir... I only hope not to have similar incidents repeated to myself or anyone else that may be different.

What kind of being are you, if you don't mind my asking... There are so many different types of immortals it's often difficult to pinpoint. As for my big brother, sadly I'm the only one that managed to come here. It often gets lonely because I'm used to being with him and some of the others all the time, but I think I can manage if it's only temporarily.

I hope for that as well. And I've quite enjoyed getting so many differing views on the matter. It's been enlightening.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure he would be proud to hear you handling things on your own and remaining strong even in the face of your loneliness.

As for myself, I am a vampire.

You're very kind, sir.

But what luck that I should happen to talk to another person about vampires and I get to actually talk to one? What are the chances?

It's okay though, you needn't worry about such unpleasant things. I prefer to try to move past it while still keeping my guard up. Since it seems we're both pretty fond of the nightlife, perhaps we could spend some time on a high perch to enjoy the view of the city lights.

Thank you. I certainly try my best.

I feel the same, having spoken to several here. Even the humans I've spoken to haven't reacted with violence or revulsion. It's quite a relief.

That's a noble way of looking at it. And I'd like that, the view is especially wonderful from Level 1. Would you like to see it together sometime?
