"I wouldn't normally. It's the most private sentiments I have. They say necromancy changes you over time, Lan. I don't believe it." He sighs and shakes his head. "A relative told me to tell you this. That I should teach you the basics as it will help me improve. That it will give you the strength you need to keep your kingdom and me the finesse to earn back mine. I would never mention this if not asked." Lan settles down next to Bran, pressing his bloodied hand into the grass. "I see... Your relative... Has he told you anything about me? Any of... My secrets?" "No...? Why?"

He glances away. "So... This... Little handshake was for what? Secrecy correct? Then I'll keep all this between you and me. And I have to thank you and your... Relative for this. I need all the help I can get right now. I never did have a good role model."

I need all the help I can get right now. I never did have a good role model." He smiles, looking a bit sad. "Right - blood brothers. We're in this together Lan, and I hope in time we can be like a new family I guess. It sounds kind of weird I know. I was close to my sisters and I really miss them...and I really haven't had much of a family since then. But we're going to have to do things and trust one another so it's important to me to know you're willing to go the distance. Necromancy is either all or nothing."

Lan takes in a deep breath before placing (his none bloodied) hand on Bran's. He smiles softly. "I hope we become close also. I... Damn..." He looks conflicted. "I feel like I have to tell you or else I feel like we never will." He squeezes his hand.

You could say... That I'm like that all the time."

Um..." He turns red, choking up. "A... A male..." He squeaks out

He squeaks out His brows raise and he looks confused. "What are you then?" He gulps. "My mother never bore a male heir for my father. All daughters..." He starts to pale a bit. "My father took a strange liking towards me and kept me hidden until he felt I was ready to be exposed but not as who I was but as what he wanted me to be. I... I'm a female, Bran. I'm not a prince. But my title is making me so." He starts to feel faint

He then grabs a piece of cloth and takes a knee before lan, quickly wrapping her hand and muttering a small prayer over it before the cut begins to seal up. "I am so sorry I asked you to injure yourself, Princess. A lady should never injure her hands."

I'll admit I'm rather flattered."

"You realize women cannot make an oath like this at home unless they are wedding the man? The only female blood brother one can have is a wife."
