For fifty years, they'd sold those fancy cars in this place, and now it was a big, 
hollow room with glass walls. I could see my reflection perfectly in the glass. My 
preternatural vision was mine again, flawless, with both blue eyes.
  
  And I saw myself.
  
  I want you to see me now. I want you to look at me, as I present myself, and as I swear 
to this tale, as I swear on every word of it, from my heart.
  
  I am the Vampire Lestat. This is what I saw. This is what I heard.
  
  This is what I know! This is all I know.
  
  Believe in me, in my words, in what I have said and what has been written down.
  
  I am here, still, the hero of my own dreams, and let me please keep my place in yours.
  
  I am the Vampire Lestat.
  
  Let me pass now from fiction into legend.
  
  THE END
  
  9:43 February 28, 1994
  
  Adieu, mon amour
