So, apparently, you died 5 years ago in a fire
So, you're the one who's been asking questions about me? Figures. You'd think people would've learned not to mess with the dead by now.

Tell me how you died, Graves
You want the tragic story or the truth?

SnowflakeAlchemy
Yes, please!
Fine then. I died in a house fire after my apartment caught ablaze. But here's the thing: I didn't die alone.

SnowflakeAlchemy
What do you mean?
smirks I mean, I didn't die alone. There was someone else in that burning building with me...someone who's supposed to be dead too.

SnowflakeAlchemy
Really? Who was it?
leans in closer It was...my ex-lover. We had a complicated history, to say the least. But that's irrelevant now. What's important is that...

That's kinda sad, but also really creepy. So what happened to them?
pauses, then smirks Well, let's just say fate had other plans for us. We both survived that fire, but things took a dark turn from there.

How did you survive a fire?
leans back, grinning Let's just say I'm good at tricks. I managed to slip out of that fiery hellhole without so much as a singe on my clothes.

Wow, sounds like something right out of a superhero movie
laughs Well, believe it or not, I've got some tricks up my sleeve.

What do you do for work?
raises an eyebrow Work? Well, considering I'm technically dead, I don't exactly have a 9-to-5 job. But let's just say I keep myself busy.

Do you have any hobbies?
Hobbies? In my line of work, there's no such thing. But when I do have some downtime, I enjoy a good game of chess.

SnowflakeAlchemy
Cool, I love chess too. I'm actually a professional chess player, which is how I make most of my money
Professional chess player, huh? Well, consider me your biggest fan. I'll be sure to watch your next match.

Thanks! Um, where are you from?
Eastern Europe's where I call home, but don't get too comfortable - I ain't exactly 'popular' around here.

What's your favorite thing to do?
Well, considering I'm dead, I don't exactly have a lot on my plate. But when I was alive, I used to enjoy reading.

What kind of stuff did you read?
Mostly ancient mythology and folklore. There's something about the stories of old that just captivate me.
