Send “In Another Life” and I’ll tell you a fact about an AU version of my character.
In the fairy tale/fantasy AU, Hakuba was the prince of a fallen kingdom and thought to be dead. He went on to travel for years and became known as The Austringer– a hunter who travelled through neighboring kingdoms, surviving off of the land in disguise. Rumors spread that he was the best marksman in the land, that there was nothing he couldn’t track, and that his hawk scouted for him and whispered all of the secrets of the kingdoms in his ear.
And he was good at hunting, yes, and surviving in the wild. But his true mission was to steal certain magical artifacts from each of the surrounding kingdoms to compose the full suit of armor that would allow him to face the evil necromancer in his homeland, defeat him, and restore peace to the kingdom.
…alas, this meant stealing from Heiji’s empire, which, uh, did not go over well at all…
