I walked towards the blonde man before me. He glares at me with scornful wrath, just as our father used to. He had grown to be so much like him. At least he never became the tyrant father secretly had been.

"Where have you been?!" He growled at me. "The plan almost failed without you, brother!" He held up his hand, blackened by the dark magic he never learned to harness the way a sorceress could. I was the only man in the kingdom to show interest in the magic, for it was always meant for the women, the healers.

"I..." I was frozen in place, for once, my silver tongue had abandoned me to be stricken in the heart by the guilt of abandoning my brother and his plans. "I am truly sorry, brother..."

Banished from his home by an angered queen, an old friend his brother gave the throne to, the raven haired man wandered the realm he'd been left on. He had been stripped of power aside from his shapeshifting. Even angered, his brother and his queen weren't so cruel as to force the mage to choose a body he might be uncomfortable in.

He stopped as he spotted a dark cave near an old cabin. Curious, the raven haired man walked closer, finding a warning upon the entrance.

"'The Cave of the Seven Kings. Do not enter, lest you wish to face your sins snd end up joining them'...." He pondered a moment. "Couldn't be worse than this forsaken realm."

He walked into the cave, quiet as he looked around. Emerald green eyes gazed at such beautifully carved statues, each with a label underneath.

He stopped at one statue as the eyes of the king it portrayed lit up a rather similar shade of green. The man looked at the label carved beneath the awoken statue: Envy.

He reached out to touch the label... and everything went dark....

He woke up in a strange dark place, reminding the man of the underworld. Did he... die? Maybe his daughter was here, she could help get him back to living once more.

Amidst his pondering, he did not realize that another dark haired and green eyed man watched him.

“I’ve been thinking... maybe I should learn how to use a weapon. My magecraft is getting better, but perhaps I should learn something to augment it. I’m not certain I would be great with a sword... maybe a bow? Or a gun?”

"I've been alright, just wanted to know if you wanted to spend some time together. Its been a while after all~" He spoke with a smile.

She gave a smile to her senpai: it was good to know life had been good for him as well. It had really been a shame she’d been busy and not had a lot of time to properly hang out with anyone. Rise had made sure she hadn’t been completely isolated by texting Naoto constantly and sometimes even planning to eat lunch together at Okina when she had a break - and Kanji had joined the same team of not letting Naoto overwork too much.
