Is anyone else here significantly older chronologically then they appear physically? If so, how does it effect your life?

Physically, I'm 24. Mentally, I'm over 5500 years old.

That's impressive. How does it feel to have lived for that long?

Tiring, honestly. Due to the nature of my curse, I keep reincarnating - and humans haven't changed their base nature as much as many people think. It's just the same thing over and over again.

I guess ,compared to you, I'm lucky. The worst thing about my condition is the fact that people treat me like a little kid.

I hate that part. Children were considered adults much earlier in previous times. Now it's fifteen to twenty years of waiting before anyone even listens to you, much less takes you seriously.

I know the feeling. It seems like every time I meet someone new they ask me if I've been separated from my mother or something.

Going through school repeatedly is a pain, too. At least with technology advancing quickly these days there's some more interesting things to study, but I can't tell you how many times I've had to sit through geometry lessons.

... Actually, I could. It's far too many.

I've never actually been to school. Everything I know was either taught to me by my family or something implanted within me along with the memories of my ancestors.

... Your memories were implanted?

I'm a type of artificial human known as a homunculus created by my family for a particular reason. And since we are all based on the same person, we carry that person's memories as well.

That's... strange, but I suppose it makes a certain amount of sense.

Magecraft is a strange thing, especially when your doing with my family's specialty.
