(Book 6) A remnant of the long-forgotten past of two kingdoms and the Rulers of Frost and Flame still lives with blood and flesh.

It is said that true freedom comes when one is unneeded, but if those words were heard by him, he would only laugh and say, "I am the last Shade, and the significance of these words has been eroded into nothing." -- Book I: The Finality of Death Book II: Of Mice and Men Book III: The Best Role of All Book IV: Native of a Foreign Land Book V: Gaze Into The Kaleidoscope Book VI: Illusory Dream
