Two vampires that I know of have graduated without being forced to become human. One is of my blood--and she became a Warden. If they can, I can. Sacrifice some of my power--the demon half I can call upon outside of this place? That I would gladly do. I don't want that part of me anymore, even if it has to be burned out of me. Give up my pact and servitude? Again, gladly. Turn my strength to something resembling a just cause? Certainly. Turn into a mortal man for good? Never. [So much bitterness in his voice.] My mortal life was misery even back when I was a landed prince.
[He gives the angel a curious look, not quite hopeful, at his last statement.]
