I smiled as he considered me a friend. Sure he could, but if we were friends, and I were to die, which I wont anytime soon, then he would have a very bad day. Considering how he also asked me why we needed a name. I responded. Sadly. "Keep our real identities hidden. As well, because most of us work alone, we rarely see one another. Last time I saw another Shadow was about two years ago. I don't know if She died. or if she is still living. But I know that her name, shadow name, might be used again under a different person. It's to create a persona for yourself. Should I die, someone else might take up my name to continue the legacy of the name, as well as use the name of Onix, to carry more weight. Those who do know me, trust me, as well as fear or respect me. Shadows rarely see one another. So if a Shadow dies, it goes unnoticed. if a real person dies, they die. We don't want our names tied with our deaths either. Some of the choices we made as a Shadow, don't want to be printed on our real live's namesake."
