"So what do you think it is?" an Honor Guard whispered to another next to him. They both wore armor that Was a Black with a blood red lining that went across the armor. “Does it look like I am supposed to know?” “I don’t know maybe.” The left guard retorted before they heard Shadow Stalker speak. “Guards leave us.” Stalker said. “Um sir are you sure about that? What about that thing, what if it tries and attacks you?” The guard on the right asked. “Promise you I would snap this little ones neck before he could even get three inches off the ground.” Stalker said which made the guards nod before leaving. “And one more thing no one enters unless I give permission.” He finished. Again they nodded and left the room. Stalker began to circle the young dragon as he came to find out what he is and confirm his earlier suspicions. But what was he going to do with him. ——————————————— 495 years ago, Shadow Realm Fortress, Throne room. Shadow Stalker sat on his throne with the bow the newly pronounced prince of the shadow realm, Shadow Demon laying down on his lap curled up sleeping letting out small snores as he saw his chest slowly rise and fall. It confused him why would a Shadow need rest. Well then again he was a god. There soon a knocking and a guard came walking in and he kneeled before him. “Rise and speak. What news do you bring?” Shadow Stalker said with his strict tone and demonic sounding voice. “Sir he is here.” The guard said. “Ah, good. Send him in.” He Stalker said as he looked down at the sleeping form of Demon. He would never admit it to anyone but he found the way Demon slept kinda cute. “My name little one is σκιά καρδιάς and I will be your teacher.” σκιά καρδιάς said as he looked at the young dragon looking demon. “Um okay.” Shadow Demon said as he looked up at him. Shadow Demon looked over the Horizon sitting at the mouth of the cave waiting for Stalker to return in which he hasn’t yet and he is usually done by then. Demon was about to just go to bed when he get a familiar presence. When he turned his face fell. “What happened? Where did you go?” Shadow Demon asked while hugging the immortal being. “I am fine just a little bruised up a bit, thats all.” Stalker said only to get a look from Demon that said that he was lying. “Fine it was overwhelming. This Lunar Princess can enter and exit, can even control a dream based on the hosts state of mind and I think that it’s best if we sleep tonight we best be on our guard, for she may be watching for us.” Stalker said as he stood up and limbed into the cave and sat on the bed Shadow Demon soon following. Demon sat next to him putting his head on his lap as he closed his eyes and soon fell into a deep slumber
