Gaining Entry
« on: July 05, 2010, 06:56:18 PM »
After years of dormancy, of being in the background...

It was time.

Shanghai, after leaving his home and entering into the Japaen society after years of isolation, approached the gates of the Imperial City. Something compelled him to do this, to return to this great city of magic and science.

"Shanghai, apprentice magic user, requesting entry!" he declared. He didn't have any papers, any documents... But...

Relax... something in his head said, assuring him. I will handle this, should trouble arise...

((Question! Is having XANAcore in your head (Well, at least until he fully gains control) considered godmoding? Because it's like, ya know, completely leegul.)

((Depends. What do you mean by 'in your head?'))
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

From high above, ontop of a stone pillar which the gate was bound to, a guard called out, "State your purpose in the Imperial City!"

"Damn!" Shanghai shouted, accidentally voicing his thoughts.

"Wait..." He mumbled, thinking to himself.

"Ah, I've got it!"

"I've come to... Uhh... Pursue magical knowledge, and devote myself to the glory of Japae!"

Yeah... That'd work...

(("In his head" means, well, not really "in his head," because he's a reincarnation, but the personality is within him. He'll overtake Shanghai soon.))

The gates glowed red before turning to water which could easily be walked through.

Shanghai took a deep breath, and stepped towards the gates.

Once he was touching the water, he screamed, expecting to be vaporized.

"Oh, hey... cool." He muttered, stepping through the non-lethal gates.
