The Last Honest Vampire

For two friends, watching the new season of their favorite show may have to wait while one of them contends with a potentially life-changing event.

Genre: Fantasy

Excerpt:
“Sometimes I think it’s kind of nice that vampires are accepted in this fictional society,” Glo said.

My attention perked up. That was different. But the response from the rest of our friends was not.

“That would be like chickens living among us and being okay that we eat them.”

“That show is dumb. They have high school at night so the vampires can attend? So dumb.”

What’s the Word (that inspired the story)?
Psychopomp: a person who conducts spirits or souls to the other world, as Hermes or Charon. (source: dictionary.com)
