Bonjour Kamijo! I want to wish you a wonderful and happy birthday. Many years ago, I listened to Serenade by Versailles, and it was the very first time I got to hear your voice. You have been my favorite vocalist ever since. I'm now a huge fan of Lareine, New Sodmy, Versailles and your solo music. It's thanks to you that I've gained the drive and courage to practice and improve my singing again. I still have a long way to go, but I'll continue to work very hard so that one day, I'll be able to cover some of your songs for you! A thousand kisses from The Netherlands! Vive le Roi! Much love, Sylvester van Loo

"Another year by your side. You know, everytime when this special date arrives, my heart is filled with genuine joy. You're always showing different and brilliant sides of yourself and you keep being one of the most inspiring human beings of my life. Tell me, how is it to be someone who is always willing to bring the best melody to the world's ears? It can't be that easy, but you seem to have already mastered this task very well. What can I say? It's impossible to not fall in love with your charms, mister. I wish your path will be even more successful from now on; I wish your voice keep getting stronger and powerful; I hope you keep conveying your message; I hope your future projects gain vitality; I hope, of course, to see you one more time, and I'll try my best to say face-to-face how proud I am for the man you are and for the musician you are. Well, I hope you'll find love in your daily routine, even bigger than you have from Roses. Thank you for being my source of strength. Happy birthday, sunshine ? Mohara Gomes (@moharaa), from Brazil.

Kamijo-san, Happiest of birthdays to you! Thank you for another year of wonderful music, and another year of giving your all to the rose garden you have been nurturing since the beginning of your journey. We appreciate everything you’ve done, and all of your hard work. You are a remarkable and brilliant vampire king, illuminated by the silver light of the moon. It’s a wonder, if not a mystery, that your blood gives immunity to writer’s block. That is something I greatly admire about you, sire. Please continue to shine brilliantly, and help us find the strength to pursue the things we love. Please continue to be that beacon for us. You have helped inspire many, and you have helped us form our own creations. It is because of you that we’ve found ways to express ourselves. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wish you the best of health in the years to come. So please remember to rest when you can, and see those you care about. Friend dates are very important, and a blessing to our soul. Here’s to another year of elegance and grace, and to another year of the stories you’ve given us over the years. Never stop being our vampire penguin king. Never stop being yourself. Always remain true to your heart. Vive le roi, and happy birthday. Much love and admiration, Alexander, aka Count von Kit

Vive le Roi By: A lexander, aka Count von K it Part 1: L'enfant In the beginning, there was darkness. Accompanied by screams and the melody of shattering bones, that was all that existed - that was all that filled his world for the longest time. It was horrendous, and unflattering - a much different place from the more endearing memories that gave him hope; hope that one day he might see something other than darkness, and feel something more than the damp cell walls which confined him. After all, what had this child done in the first place? What did this child do to deserve such a fate, to be ripped from the arms of his parents and locked away for the crimes he did not commit? His chest, heavy from grief yet faint of hope, took in but a shallow breath. The boy was starved, and tired of crying. Like any child, he just wanted to be home. He just wanted to see his parents and run carelessly around the palace he knew since birth. He just wanted to laugh again, and to smile. Perhaps, he even wanted to see something that showed the outside world still existed; be it green grass, flowers, or even a crisp breeze that smelled not of rotting flesh. He needed that reassurance. He needed something. Anything. The flame inside his heart flickered as he pulled up his legs, burying his head into his knees. “I… want to see momma,” the boy breathed, body casting a tremble. “I want…” His voice trailed off, already exhausted of speaking. Words were a plenty inside of him, but mustering up the energy to talk was a far different story. From across the room, just on the far side of his cell, there rested a narrow hole towards the very top of the wall, closest to the ceiling. His eyes fixed on the silver light trickling through, almost as if begging him to play. It must have been nightfall, he thought all while lifting his head up more. With the little strength his body held, the boy forced himself to crawl towards it, the sound of chains that bound his ankles jingling just behind. “Monsieur Moon,” he breathed again, looking up to the pale orb illuminating the sky. “Thank you for visiting again. I must apologize though for not having the energy to play tonight.” The corner of his lips turned a smile to hide the pain and suffering from his only friend. “Maybe tomorrow we can. I’m sure I’ll feel much better then! Promise!” The boy waited with little pause, content to have at least someone to talk to - someone who didn’t yell at him, or spit in his direction for no reason at all. He then laid down on his side, head resting in the spot the moon’s light touched. It reminded him of the nights back home when he would fall asleep in his mother’s lap after being read a story. How he longed for days like those to return... “Say, Monsieur Moon. Do you ever… wish for things? I do. All the time, in fact.” He rolled over onto his back, staring back up to it. “Sometimes I wish to see mama and papa again. Other times…” His voice fell, trying to muster up the energy to speak once more. “Sometimes, I wish to be free. I wish to see the outside world, and to breathe the

fresh air. Sometimes when I close my eyes, I can see home again in the distance - oh, it’s so very close! In the courtyard, mama’s there, waiting ever so patiently for me…!” Clouds dared so much as to cross between the two, but that didn’t stop the boy from sharing more of his wishes. “I think, if I could wish for anything now, it would be for strength. Why, maybe then I could sneak out of here. If I could get that strength, I could walk - run! The guards would never catch me! I could return home!” Delight caressed his voice, but his heart soon sank once more. “I’m sorry, Monsieur Moon. Sometimes I just get excited, and hopeful. But it seems I’ll remain here for eternity, left to memorize every creavous these walls do bare… Wishes like those do not come true, for life is no faery tale. Papa said that once.” “Is that really what you think, Louis?” came an unfamiliar voice. Startled, the boy quickly sat up. His eyes scanned around, looking for where it came from, let alone from who. But the darkness was too much, as no one appeared to be present. That, or he was hearing things. “W-who’s there?” His voice quivered. Before him dropped a body, lifeless and rather stiff, one that looked nearly identical to his. Terror raced up his spine as the boy pushed himself away, wall now against his back. He glanced up to see a pair of piercing pale eyes staring curiously into

his, watching his every move like a cat to mouse. Screams lodged their way in his throat, unable to escape - unable to run. Monster…! “Come on, Louis. We haven’t much time.” The boy looked back to the body, and then to the figure before him. There was no way this wasn’t a trap. Where were the guards? How did someone get in here, unnoticed at that? He trembled harder, violently shaking his head and shutting his eyes. Perhaps this was nothing more than a bad dream, one he would most like to wake up soon from. “You wish to be free, yes?” A hand extended his way, equally as pale as the moon, with nails so long that they curled upward and were sharp enough to cut through human flesh. “I can grant you that, my liege. Do not be scared, and do not be alarmed by my sudden appearance. Rest assure that I am here to help you.” Stealing a glance back towards the hand, Louis dared so much to ask, “How… do I know I can trust you?” An ominous laugh escaped from the figure. It was short, effortless. He was well within his rights to be suspicious, given the situation. Ah, but there was so little time left before the sun kissed the sky. “I don’t think you have any other options, Louis. If you want to live, and to see what rests outside these prison walls, you will come with me.” Louis looked back towards the moon as if for reassurance, and then to the figure, forcing himself to muster up whatever strength he could just to stand. “I will answer whatever questions you have once we arrive where we need to be. But we must act swiftly. All I ask is that you trust me, my liege. Freedom will be yours. That much, I promise.” In that moment, hope danced in the boy’s eyes as he so blindly placed his hand in the stranger’s. The temptation felt that night far outweighed anything he could have ever imagined, despite the gamble he took as they fled the tower together. Among the questions he held, at the very least he wanted to know who this man was that would later become both teacher and mentor, as well as this place he was being taken to - this place the stranger described as a safe haven hidden far beneath the radar of those who overthrew the house. To be continued...

My dear Kamijo… Through this simply- but full of feelingswords, I want to express you all my gratittude. Now, a special date for you and all who follow your steps, is the perfect instance to thank for all you give us, in all senses; because your only existence can even save someone from desperation, from falling. Personally, I still remember the moment when I had the chance to know about you and your music. You changed me, you filled a place in my heart that I didn’t know that was empty and your voice and smile can make my day better. When I have bad or sad days, your music is the only that can calm me… When I feel happy or something special happened to me, your music can be present too… Your versatility, the capacity to be like a chameleon through different rythms makes me happy because I feel I can be with you in differents “moods”. The way you tell us a story, express
an idea or feeling is so unique, is your personal seal. For this and many reasons I admire you since the day 1 you’ve been in my life. I hope you may be blessed with all the happiness from this world! You’re wonderful, like human being as an artist. Please enjoy your day like you wish, and never forget that me and all your loyal fans love you with all our hearts! I wish you the best and pray for many more years by your side. Feliz Cumpleaños, Happy Birthday my beloved Kamijo!!! I hope to have the honor to meet you again soon, here in my country or be able to meet you in Japan someday. My warm and sincere wishes from Chile. Paulina Pérez

“Another year by your side. You know, everytime when this special date arrives, my heart is filled with genuine joy. You’re always showing different and brilliant sides of yourself and you keep being one of the most inspiring human beings of my life. Tell me, how is it to be someone who is always willing to bring the best melody to the world’s ears? It can’t be that easy, but you seem to have already mastered this task very well. What can I say? It’s impossible to not fall in love with your charms, mister.

I wish your path will be even more successful from now on; I wish your voice keep getting stronger and powerful; I hope you keep conveying your message; I hope your future projects gain vitality; I hope, of course, to see you one more time, and I’ll try my best to say face-to-face how proud I am for the man you are and for the musician you are. Well, I hope you’ll find love in your daily routine, even bigger than you have from Roses. Thank you for being my source of strength. Happy birthday, sunshine ?

Sympathia “Why is the moon so sentimental?” the king breathed. “Ah, does it think of me?” he asked the nocturnal flowers. “Does it mourn whenever I serenade the balcony of stars, or sail upon the company of clouds instead?” With the cast of a broken aristocrat, he knelt before the bed of lonesome millefoils. “Have I been so thoughtless to betray the siren of dreams?” Painted with regret, he picked among them the most fragile flower and offered it a kiss. “If I court you like this,” his lackluster eyes turned moonward, “will you promise to cure me of life?”

Good Night, O Sweet Prince Because you sleep when a farewell sky paints a sinful noir. Because you live mortal nothings like impossible theories of time. When the night beckons the moon to illuminate this hour, so ghostly. When half of the world is disenchanted and the rest insane. We are two kingdoms apart. Because you sleep when I wake.

The Romancer
At fourteen, it was the moon troubadour who committed a theft of my heart. He brought me to his castle of mirrors and imprisoned me inside a cheval glass. Each serene of the night he would court me with nocturnes of unrequited love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you not find yourself upon a looking glass?â&#x20AC;? I had protested once, for how could I immediately know it was possible to find another world behind it? But when I found butterflies trapped within frames of mirrors too, I understood. The castle was a collection of mortal things. He was the connoisseur of this kingdom. The keeper of fragile antiquities in fear they may soon decay. I recognised from those beseeching eyes, so often uncoloured by the phobias of his past, what sort of man he was. I have met a creature not of time who merely ached to craft a butterflyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dream. But it was sympathy which I sang of whenever I sat upon his piano. It was an illusion. It was not I to whom he sang. It was not my name to which his endearments belong. Nor the flowers, it was not my address to which they are sent. What else have I become but an image upon a glass? I wrecked my prison into pieces and there was the horror as I stared at my bloodied hands that perhaps my fingers could never again play the piano. He caught me from this foolish escape but did not forbid my leave-taking. Instead, he bandaged my wounds so tenderly as if they were his. Before I left his doors, he humbly asked me to think of the moon and kissed my hand au revoir. Whenever I do, in the most crestfallen of nights, it pains me how it was not the subject of eternity, nor the opposite of natures which caused our parting, but the knowledge to have fallen for a man who have built a fortress against time if only to be constantly looking for love, never once realising whose face it reflected back from all his mirrors.

Dear Kamijo: Bonjour! I want to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And I hope you’ll stay many more years in the music world with your sweet and wonderful voice.
