Here in Japan my name is Takumi I won't tell you my real name, not yet anyways. Everything you need to know about me will be told in good time. For now let me just tell you the reason I'm here. I'm not from this realm but another one entirely, a kingdom known as the labyrinth. I my mother, Sarah, was a human and my father was a fae, king of the labyrinth. When they first met, my mother was resistant to his first proposal, but in ten years' time she accepted my father's second proposal and became his queen.

It was about a year ago today that my father called me into his court. There he was sitting sideways in his chair ponderingwho knows what. He twirled three crystals while gazing at the ceiling, almost trance-like.

"Father?"The crystals froze in his hand"you wanted to see me?"

He pulled his legs off the armrest and sat upright in his throne. "I have a task for you, son. Your mother and I believe that you are at the proper age that you should go and find someone just as I had found your mother."

"You want me to find a bride?"

"Yes, one who matters to you. But there are conditions. First you are not to tell anyone of this place ort your past, second any use of magic will be prohibited on this trip only your natural talents, and third, you must leave your crystal here. On these three rules there will be no negotiating, the reason being that if I had used none of these things perhaps your mother would have said yes to my first proposal. I'd hate to see you wait as long as I had to wait."

I had been looking forward to this day for a long time; I had grown up here alone without friends. I was told I would meet others my age when the time was right, this was it. I summoned my crystal to my hand and tossed it to my father. He caught the transparent orb with the three that were already in his hand, as he spun them clockwise I felt drowsy.

"When you awaken everything that you need will be at your disposal. Take care of yourself, son."

I woke up in an apartment, instinctively knowing everything about my life here in Japan, but to this day I still wonder, "why did my father pick Japan?"

(please leave a comment, let us know what you think! J Thank you very much! )
