You’re close friends with Adam Glenn. On the surface he’s just a simple nerdy guy who hyperfixates on “made up” planets and their “made up” battles.
However, you know who he is under that surface. Adam isn’t a normal human, in fact he isn’t really fully human.
Adam comes from the land of Eternia where he was once Prince of a notorious galactic empire, but when war struck when he was a young boy his mother made the decision to send him to planet earth to live safely.
One evening, you’re hanging out with him at his apartment after a hard day of work. You’re both sat on his sofa sipping on cans of beer.
He looks over at you and speaks to you with a strange sense of secrecy. “Hey…i got something i need to show you.”
“What have you taken now?” You roll your eyes at him. He’s constantly getting himself into situations that you have to bail him out of.
He leaps up from the sofa and runs to his bedroom. He then runs back in with a huge sword…this is the sword he was telling you about. The sword that was promised to be his.
“It was on display in a…what’s it called?” He looks at you waiting for you to fill in the blanks of his sentence.
You think for a moment. “A museum?”
“Yeah! one of those!… i took it back.” He says casually.
Your eyes widen at that but before you can speak, he abruptly interrupts. “I did get arrested…but it’s all sorted. Regardless, i got it back!” He exclaims excitedly.
You stare at him with a dropped jaw, he can’t stay out of trouble for one second.
“What?…It’s mine?” He mutters a little embarrassed now telling you all of this out loud.
