No matter how powerful a living being might be, the most important thing that they required more than anything else would be the vital air, oxygen, without which it would only take a few minutes for the soul to perish and then become nothing but dirt.

It was said that God made the first human from dirt, and then God breathed air into their nostrils to make them a living soul. So, it was only fitting for the humans to return to dirt after death.

Now, human blood had life in it and would mix well with the soil which also had a very similar acidity(pH) value. This was not a coincidence. This was also part of the reason why vampires could sleep underground because the soil would continually charge their body and blood with its ions and heal their bodies at the same time.

Sleep was indeed the best time for health recovery of any living being. But vampires were neither living nor dead. They were cursed beings that didn’t fit any category. Their life was often filled with blood and murder. T
