Isamu let out a heavy sigh, "I first came here when I was seven years old. I had run away from my home and looked towards the Saiforro's for help... I don't know why... i guess just because, I saw Mrs.S outside gardening one day and Lark was playing with a ball. The two of them just looked so happy together. Needless to say, they took me in and my life has been a living hell ever since. I wish I had just stayed home... but I couldn't deal with drunk parents and the crime that was happening in the town that I lived in. It scared me and I ran away..."

"The only real thing about all of my abilities, are my wings. I was born with them, everything else is fake. The ice ability I have is fake... the other, darker side of me is fake. I hope you aren't around here long enough to see it, but this isn't the only body I have. The ability for me to turn into an eagle is fake. it's all fake but real at the same time. I guess what im trying to tell you is, the Saiforro's did this to me. I am their experiment. I am their tool and their weapon. I wish I could have warned you from the start, but, once you stay a night at Barlo Mansion, you may never leave. You can try, but some other sense will make you turn around come right back. believe me, I have tried up countless times, to escape this retched hell hole." Isamu then ran a hand through his hair as his anxiety returned and his hands began trembling again.

"The only reason I am not dead yet is because this place is cursed. Not only can a person not leave after spending a night here, but no one may die within the walls of this building from anything other than old age or disease. Noe one can kill you here. I don't really know what im trying to say right now, im just trying to get this all off of my back right now. But... there's so much more to it Alice. Not only have the Saiforro's robbed me of my childhood but... I don't even care about myself... I only care about you guys and..." he trailed off and stared out at the trees for a few moments before looking Alice in the eyes, his own eyes filled with fear of the unknown, and a true sadness.

'Alice... Airi is my daughter."
