"Two thousand years, Kaiser. That's how long I've known you, and yet... you lied."
"Kal you of all people would understand the need for secrecy!"
She scowled... "I know! And that's what makes this so much more difficult..."
She was no stranger to secrecy, was no stranger to keeping others safe... but she didn't like it all the same... and for once she was worried on what he had hidden.
It didn't take long for his past exploits to be found, considering he doesn't hide it if you ask. But nobody save for his family knows what he did in his youth... and now... Kal has found out.
