I've heard a good rule that commas allow for a quick breath, full stops a proper breath. No human could read that sentence without needing a quick breath.

Even if that's the case, the other guy was trying to give you helpful advice and I feel you were being rude and disrespectful in return. I feel the same way as them, and your attitude was just uncalled for.

Until you posted the sequel, they were right, the story didn't follow the prompt. I only knew a sequel was coming because without the sequel, this just wasn't reflecting the prompt.

The prompt mentioned a deal. You ended with 'a vampire has infiltrated'. I know prompts are a guide, I've seen it myself where my prompts weren't answered to the letter, and I've also done it myself. But you missed the key part of the prompt - the deal. If someone says 'village', it doesn't literally mean a village, but you can't choose the middle of a forest!

Then you're on the wrong subreddit. Plain and simple, you are. The only thing that kept me from saying anything originally was the fact I was EXPECTING a sequel so you COULD fulfil the prompt.
