I don't mind. [ it is the sort of thing that most anyone back home would already know, after all. ] I was human once, a long time ago. After I died, my spirit lingered and I was reborn first as a malicious ghost, then as a supreme. I take a human shape, but I have no need for air, food, or drink... so I suppose the answer to your question is in fact that my form is in fact the only similarity I have with a mortal human.
Thank you. When I was newly born as a malicious ghost my form was much more obviously inhuman, but I've had 800 years to perfect it at this point, and have in the meantime developed a talent for sculpture, which I'm sure helps.

Thank you for the information, young master Daan. I'm thankful that you held up your end of our bargain.

I'm a ghost king. I would give my full title, but if we aren't from the same world, I'm not sure it would mean much to you.

Biologically, what sets you apart from humanity? If I may ask that, of course. I realize it's a bit invasive.

Thank you for letting me nosy about you. I'm not unused to what people call the supernatural and whatnot, but this is a first for me.

[ he sounds surprisingly non-egotistical about that—it is just a simple statement of fact. ]
