"The soul?" It's said with a healthy amount of skepticism. Strange wasn't not religious but he certainly wasn't all that religious either. Most of the time when he went to church, it was because he was trying to impress his wife. The idea of the state of the soul having something to do with vampirism to begin with...it's interesting.

But it does make sense. When he wrenched those poor soldiers up from hell, after all, he brought their souls back (at least, that's how he's interpreting raising the dead.) And vampirism is something close to a death-like state. But it wasn't entirely death-like, after all, what with the walking and talking and generally remaining the same person but with the added bloodlust.

"If it were matters of the soul, wouldn't one call for a priest? That's how the stories say vampires were dealt with back on my world." But, obviously, this world is different. He sighs, a slightly overdramatic sigh.

"If only I had more books," he can't help but complain as he looks over Foster, treating the man like a case study more than an actual person. "Surely the magicians of old knew more about matters of the soul!"
