A young man walks in with certain lack of regality, considering he's the Emperor of the Chosen... though however it may seem the position was not precisely a wanted one, nor was it one Tal Graile-Rerem was born into. In fact, the boy was born in one of the lowest levels of the caste system of the Chosen

What's wrong with your shadow?

[boy_emperor]

Oh Adras? Don't mind him, he's just mad because I told him to behave.

[wonderfulboy]

My shadow gets silly sometimes too. Once it ran away!

[boy_emperor]

*laughs* Adras can't run away. No Spiritshadows can. I don't think Adras would even if he could though, not without his sister Odris.

Typist: I shall be including their AIM interaction.

Tal! *smiles happily* You're here. This is the Mansion. ...It's, well, it's hard to explain?

[boy_emperor]

*smiles some at the sight of a familiar face* Sarah, hi. Any harder to explain than where I come from? *laughs*

[thats_not_fair]

Probably. I mean, no one's been able to explain it to me yet.

[boy_emperor]

Well, we'll figure it out as we go, I guess...

[raventonbeauty]

They call it "Desperate Fans." If nothing else, it's a welcoming place.

*he's a quiet and beautiful young man who doesn't meet Tal's eyes, seeming half somewhere else at all times*

[boy_emperor]

That's good. Not a lot of places these days are like that.

[raventonbeauty]

Too many, it seems to me. Welcoming, but dangerous. Watch out for vampires, if you like your soul where it is.

[boy_emperor]

...huh. Thanks. I'll be sure and remember that.

[loonyradish]

*regards him solemnly* I don't think you're going to get anywhere with that question.

[boy_emperor]

Well, what question should I ask then?

[loonyradish]

'Why is the sky blue?', 'How many roads must a man walk down?', 'Does England exist?', 'Why does Buddy Holly speak in Elizabethan English?' -- those would all be much more productive questions.

[boy_emperor]

Well, seeing as the sky where I'm from ISN'T blue, I've never heard of England, and I have no clue who Buddy Holly is...

How many roads must a man walk down?

[minaharker10_2]

I have no idea, I'm sorry, Sir. *she looks at his shadow curiously, and perhaps a little worried* I know this may seem like a very odd question, *laughs awkwardly* but...are you human?

[boy_emperor]

Well, thanks anyway. And please, Tal is fine.

*laughs* Of course I am, aren't you? *points over his shoulder at his shadow* He's not though. This is Adras, my Spiritshadow. I'm surprised he's behaved himself this long...

[minaharker10_2]

I've never heard of spirit shadows, Sir - I'm sorry, I mean Tal. What are they? And I am most certainly human.

[boy_emperor]

Well... they're like protectors, sort of. Adras gets us into more trouble than he does protect, but he's strong. An airhead though. Literally. I don't have a real shadow anymore, just Adras.
