Enkil and Akasha were the rulers of Kemet (now Egypt) circa 4,000 BC. When he and Akasha were attacked by assassins and left to die, a powerful spirit named Amel intertwined himself with Akasha's spirit as it was leaving her dying body and then forced their combined spirits back into her, making Akasha the first vampire. Akasha then turned to Enkil dying beside her and healed his wounds by replacing the blood he lost with hers, making him the world's second vampire.
