Where did this guy come from!?

[nature_of_shadow]

Four times our world has teetered on the brink of oblivion. Four times I have watched and studied from behind the scenes.

I have walked this path for far longer than you, child. I have kept the balance longer than I would care to admit.

I would speak to those involved with the Shadows directly to see what I might learn from them. As they say, from the mouths of babes, as it were.

[He taps his cane on the ground impatiently.]

Time is wasting. Hop to it.

[Kai's pretty sure his Shadows aren't the same as this guy's, but.]

I have some. Sorta.

[It's like having creepy bug-eyed jumpy things for pets! Except not really.]

[Being European himself, Petrov is well aware that the incidents weren't limited to Japan, but the Western incidents were usually isolated and easier to document. The Baron was not aware that anyone matching Kai's description had come into contact with the shadows. He cocks an eyebrow and turns to face the boy.]

Is that so? Interesting. What kind of contact have you had?

Um...they come when I call, sometimes. Mostly they just come when they wanna, and they'll sit and listen to me talk. Dunno if they understand me, though.
