From what I understand, when people died, they rescued the vampires and taught them to feed and everything, in exchange for that they basically told everyone what to do. I guess being a Jinrou he might have been more powerful then them, or even gone to kill them during the day if they didn't do what he wanted. Maybe held their loved ones hostage..it's hard to say.

What I do know is that he was pretty pissed at me for not seeking him out when I became like this. He found out I was around and dropped by the house for a little...chat. He told me a lot of information, probably trying to get me to agree with him, but I don't like it when people make assumptions about me.

Whatever he had over him, it seemed to be the only choice he could make. [He sighs.] It wouldn't have mattered. The first night, when he bit me, I was corned by Tatsumi and Shimizu. I would have run, but he grabbed me from behind and surprised everyone.

He cried though. His tears were ice cold.

[He hasn't opened his eyes, mostly because it would be far too easy to read him if he did.]
