Hamlin Graves: Immortal
Hamlin Graves held a press conference this morning, in light of recent visions regarding his past. He fielded questions from a number of reporters and answered many concerns.
Hamlin Graves used the conference to announce the fact that he is immortal and that he was the original Hamlin Graves. Graves was quick to explain that he chose to reverse his age and experience his childhood again. When asked why he would keep it a secret, Graves replied that he felt it was really no one else's business but his own.
Graves also confirmed rumors that he was once secretly married to Ganymede Orion, that his father was not Bernard Graves but Kenichi Abe, the first king of Aylasia, and that he was involved in the accidental death of the prophet Gibous.
When questioned further about his involvement in Gibous' death, Graves seemed to pull back into himself. He was not as forthcoming regarding this matter, which he was careful to explain had to do with his guilt over the young prophet's death. "It was a terrible thing," Graves said, "a thing which I will never be able to forgive myself for."
Among all of these questions he was comforted by his wife Samra Chance, who was present for the proceedings. Other questions surfaced regarding the recent kidnapping of their adopted son Enki Chance, but all of these questions were politely and firmly deferred. "I called this conference to discuss my own past, not that of my son," Graves said on the record. "We are still processing the kidnapping ourselves and are not prepared to issue any official statement on what happened in Marik."
The conference concluded shortly thereafter when it seemed that the questions were no longer pointed at Hamlin but at the kidnapping incident. Even with all of these questions answered it seems that more will continue to crop up. If this much of Hamlin Graves' life had been kept secret, what else could still be left to learn?
