We all have dreams. For some, simple ones like - "marry the daughter of an oligarch," for some it is more difficult, but for our hero Mikhail, everything is completely different. His dream is bleak and far from the mundane desires of the people around him. Moreover, his dreams are simply unrealizable in the universal view, because he wants to become a Vampire with all his heart. Dreams are good. The main thing then is not to regret - when you achieve your goal.
