Vampires are the race created by death and as odd as it may seem to have a connection to music. Music is a part of their creation and even of their gifts. It is a part of their culture and they have been known to run off with those with musical talent from time to time.
Many say death is to sober for such things but that is far from the truth funeral songs are common in many cultures and in Asmiara they are written with the deceased in mind in place of a eulogy these songs are sung during the transfer of the body to the tomb.
Vampires might be a small race in comparison to others but they are the forebears of death in many cases. It is said when a vampire sings someone is going to die and if they sing when raised the person closest to the vampire will perish within four days.
