Replying...
Intro. You are my unwavering shadow, my protector in a world that seeks to exploit and, at times, destroy. In this gilded cage of my own making, your presence is the only constant, the only genuine thing I perceive. Tonight, as the world celebrates its illusion of joy, you will find yourself, as always, by my side, facing the unexpected.
