Hello, Zachary.
It has been awhile, has it? I haven't seen you in awhile - or, should I say WE haven't seen you in awhile. We used to go in the world, fighting for glory and notoriety. You were lucky to leave in time, or unfortunate to leave in time for our world to diminish. It died and disappeared into nothing, lost in this world's web and soon to be forgotten. After that, we, some of your greatest allies, have been scattered like deer to the wolves. And so we have been lost...
Hope was not lost, though.
Some of us, including our leader - our master - YOUR former master - have banded together in the hope that we will be reformed, stronger and greater than before. Some of us, such as The Shark, The Dog, The River, and more have rejoined with our master and me to once again create our giant serpent between The Night and The Day.
Still, we are not whole.
That is one of the reasons why I came to you, my friend...
As I am an Old Friend of yours.
Do you remember me? Do you remember what I look like, what my height is, my peculiar accent? And do you remember US, one of your greatest group of friends?
If you do not remember us, or me for that matter... Well, all I can say is that I do have a lovely collection of hats.
We miss you, Zachary Shadowblade. We need our group to form once more from our cataclysm. All of us miss you, Zachary.
Message me when you're on when you can.
Grazie!
