A Shade of Kiev 2

There is much about my past that I have never revealed to anyone.

Nobody knows that, before I lost myself, I was a physician's apprentice.

I have witnessed countless human illnesses.

But I have lived for centuries and never come across a vampire being sick with anything other than his own darkness.

Until today.

I'm staring at my blood on the floor and a raging migraine is taking hold of me.

I'm not sure what to make of it...
