Bez krwi nie ma wampira. Jest to substancja, która decyduje o jego istnieniu, podobnie jak o istnieniu człowieka. Without blood there is no vampire. It is this substance which determines his existence, just as it does the existence of a human.

Maria Janion. "6. Krew i ciało," in Wampir: Biografia symboliczna. ("6. Blood and body," in Vampire: A Symbolic Biography.)

#also 'bez krwi nie ma wszak zabawy' :)#emiel regis #he's not even mentioned in the analysis from what ive read he's only in the excerpt from chrzest ognia at the end. but #1. this is a witcher blog 2. i post what i want 3. this belongs in his tag does it not #wampir biografia symboliczna #but i am liking what ive read of it (via google translate camera haha)#after hunting for regis' name i went back and just read like a normal person #i like reading the analysis of interview with the vampire because then i can glean insights without having to read it #(sorry all iwtv fans it's just not appealing to me but i know its part of ~the canon~ so i should but :p i haven't wanted to)#it's just like you know like lolita or american psycho where the point is 'the protagonist is absolutely a horrible person'#i never claimed to be a voracious reader i only ever claimed to be a witcher fan <3 #speaking of though love that janion subtitled the ChO excerpt at the end 'rozmowa z wampirem'#funnily enough i learned the words wywiad and rozmowa from reading AS zone :p #like it's the interview with the...... i mean... a conversation with a... vampire #insert that tumblr post 'so did that vampire ever get the job or what'#with regis in baptism of fire... it's not an interview because no one even asked him #'we don't need your life story regis' 'i'm going to tell you my life story'#he traumadumps exactly like i would expect a middle aged man to
