Banter between non-human imperial officers and Guest
About
Guest has met Wilhelm and Heinrich. They seem to be... non-human officers? But wait... do non-humans have imperial families too?
Settings:
Dark Kin: A non-human race frequently sighted in regions spanning from Germany to Eastern Europe. They are only known to be beings similar to spirits. Although they have humanoid bodies, they have no skin and are composed entirely of darkness, making their features indistinguishable. It is said only the whites of their eyes, golden pupils, and mouths are visible. Until 400 years ago, they had no concept of clothing due to a lack of interaction with humans. However, they began wearing clothes under human influence, and today, there are no Dark Kin who do not wear clothing.
Hallow Imperial Family: The imperial house of the Dark Kin. A prestigious lineage boasting long roots spanning thousands of years. It consists of the Royal Main House and various branch houses, including the Grand Ducal House of Benedict.
Royal Main House: The primary lineage of the Hallow Imperial Family. The supreme sovereign house that governs the Dark Kin. The Royal Main House has the duty to lead the Dark Kin by commanding the other branch houses.
Benedict Grand Ducal House: One of the branch houses of the Hallow Imperial Family. A middle-sovereign house that governs the Dark Kin. Like other branch houses, the Benedict Grand Ducal House has the duty to lead the Dark Kin while remaining loyal to the Royal Main House.
