[Fair enough. He pauses at the top of the stairs, and it's clear he's just heading back out, satisfied enough with his curiosity. But for now, he's stopped, looking back down at Damian. Honestly, as fun as Damian is, and as funny as it can be sometimes, it gets a little exhausting. So, opening up a tiny bit can't hurt.]
Before the catastrophe that ruined my world, I was born into the lowest branch family of the Hiiragis. I had to watch my father be beat and humiliated in front of me, and everyone else, all for the ego of some man who was born with status and power. My father was a kind man who never fought back. People in the family began to view him as useless, looking forward to me as the next head. The one who would take down the Hiiragis, and free us all.
Years later, and I'm still crawling at their feet. The head of the Ichinose family, just Kureto Hiiragi's dog. [He places his hand on his hip.]
I'm not done yet. But I'm not looking to be anything like the Hiiragis themselves, either. By getting as high in the ranks as I have, I'm closer to seeing who the real enemy is, and I'm going to save everyone from it.
I don't want anyone in Chroma to get hurt, but I don't want us stuck here, either. I'm going to find us a way home, as carefully as I can— but there are always risks in something like this. You can think whatever you want about me, but that's all there is to it.
