From what I undertand. The soldier is going to commit ritual suicide, because he didn't want to go through with a rebellion. The soldier spends his final night with his lover, before he kills himself the next day. His lover is a vampire. They talk, they can both die the next mornig, the soldier with a sword in his stomach and the vampire with sunlight. Ore the vampire can turn the soldier and they will both be vampires and be together forever. Now this is just how I understand the story.
