"Lord Yasu...where is he?" a voice said as masses and masses of shadows began to form together somewhere deep in the forest. It wasn't long until the shadows were able to form into...Kaika? No, it was something else that could take the form of Kaika as much as it wanted. This was Alius, the Shadow Replica that had a mind of it's own. "Looks like he is here, Lord Yasu. I can feel my fledgings running about, my dear little Shadow Replicas...it is a relief that I can still access the replication of this girl's body. What was her name again? Kaika? I can feel her essence in this world...a perfect chance for me to arrange her fall..." Alius said as she got used to moving around in the replicated body of Kaika, and it wasn't long before the self-aware and disguised Shadow Replica would wander around and see things for herself.
