Q: So, er.. 'friend', what's your name/age/gender. That kind of thing.
A: "Though I don't find these questions very entertaining or amusing myself, I'm currently 983 years old. My name happens to be 'The Abominable Empire,' but I really do prefer to go by Empire. It has a nice ring to it, no? And I'm positive you could guess my gender by my looks, if not, you certainly need help. " Q: What are your hobbies and passions? A: "I do quite enjoy reading, though you will hear most people say that. But my definition of reading is different. I believe every cover one sees is the door to a new world; to a new time with different laws and beliefs. Another passion of mine is walking amongst the forest I can find nearby my resting spot." Q: Biggest pet peeves/annoyances? A: "Definitely folk who are judgmental of those who are different around them. I don't believe it's right to call somebody fake or a freak just because they have different tastes and hobbies then you. I mean really, it's not a crime to want to be different." Q: Do you find yourself thinking about a lover or even forming a relationship? A: "No, to me lust and keeping bonds with people is nothing but a burden on the soul and heart. Though some may disagree with this opinion, I think it's fairly valid and applies to many others around us." Q: If you had powers, would you use them for the bad or the good? A: "I don't really think there's a bad or good, in all honesty. Some things are just more extreme than others, but this is only my opinion. And I'm afraid people that are like me don't have their opinions taken into consideration as another 'normal' person's would." Q: If there is one thing you want to be remembered for what is it? A: "I want to be remembered for being fearless. It sounds odd, but it's true. And this is most certainly like a truth or dare, with truth being the only choice, is it not?" |
Q: What are your thoughts on other Iqenas? Not relationships or anything; just in general.
A: "Well, I don't really like other Iqenas, anymore. But it's nothing personal. I just don't necessarily fancy interacting with my own kind. I mean, your heart's only job is supposed to be pumping blood, so why get it involved in friendships? That should be the question." Q: Since I've read your story, what do you think about your death? Do you think it was fair? A: "I have nothing but hatred for my ending. I don't think it was fair what so ever, don't you? No one should have to die like that. No matter the crime." Q: What is your biggest fear? A: "I've always been afraid of death, well, when I was still actually an Iqena. It often disturbed me when I was young of just, well, dying. Not being resurrected or anything. Just laying there, slowly fading away. Leaving other Iqena's minds. Not having any thoughts, nor emotions. Just being a lost burden. " Q: What is your biggest regret? A: "Not having avenged my death yet. It sounds cruel at first, but think. If you were just whisked away from your family at the strike of a match for no good reason, how would you feel? Like a lost cause? Something that was just meant to die?" Q: Have you ever been in love? If so, How did you know? A: "I don't really think I ever truly loved someone. Maybe just a silly crush, but even if I did I don't remember." Q: Are you loyal? A: "I wouldn't consider myself loyal to anybody or anything. In fact, I don't really believe I've ever been loyal after my unjust death. I just don't feel as if I need to please someone any more. After-all, it doesn't help me at all, except for maybe a thank you or two." Q: What is your biggest insecurity? A: "I don't have insecurities anymore. Nothing seems to rub my fur the wrong way or make shivers go up my spine and make me crumple to the ground in anxiety." |
