So far, Sam's search had been fruitless, only the cold walls of the caves appearing before him along with his own voice echoing back into his ears, a reminder of how alone he was in the underground. Perhaps this Prince was a story made up to smear the Ascended - it would hardly be the first time he'd seen people bend the truth to make his Goddess look back. Of course, the Prince could be real and just not want to see him...he sighed and resolved to walk on further.
That was, until he saw a light appearing around him from behind. Stiffening, Sam wondered if he'd attracted the attention of the one he'd come to see. He turned slowly, anxiously, waiting to see a beast or a hideous vision of his future...
Even though Kai was much better than either of those things, Sam still jumped and yelped, still finding it a shock to meet a pair of eyes down here. [say]"Who are you?!"[/say] He asked, then squinted closer to Kai's face. For a split second he wondered if this was the Prince, but then he remembered seeing this person around before in town. [say]"...You're not the Prince, are you? What are you doing down here?"[/say]
