Hi, Aadi here. I’m chatting with one of the stars of Palace of the Twelve Pillars<\/a>, Prince Joachim. Welcome, your highness, shall we begin?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] Please.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] Who or what are you and what are your vitals?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] I am 15 at the opening of Twelve Pillars; approximately age 30 at the conclusion of\u00a0Sanctuary. Human male, half Mahorganite, half Cratonite.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] What part do you play in the story?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] My role depends on who you ask. Some think I am the protagonist who will save\u00a0Ramajadin from the evil that is besetting it, others like my brother will say the antagonist because I\u00a0always seem to be getting in his way. He thinks I am a goody two shoes. So I will leave it for you to read\u00a0and decide for yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] How would you describe your book?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] Picks up paper\u00a0<\/em>Twin princes Joachim and Brandan come of age and are thrust into adulthood as they enter a world torn\u00a0apart by war, kidnapping and betrayal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the twins are crowned Kings of Mahorg and Crato, and wed to powerful women, each will deal with\u00a0the loss of their parents in his own unique way. The choices each makes will set their world on a\u00a0cataclysmic course that only loss and sacrifice can deter.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Is their love and faith strong enough to see Joachim and Brandan through the veil of evil blanketing the\u00a0land, or will it fail and be left to their children to save?<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] Tell me about where you live? Who do you live with?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] As princes we live in the Palace of the Twelve Pillars in the city of Wryzburg in the country of Crato on\u00a0the planet Ramajadin. Our parents King Theodric and Queen Lilia are here with us along with Master\u00a0Adept Rupert,\u00a0advisor\u00a0to our father, Master Adept Croifan who is our teacher and\u00a0numerous servants\u00a0and knights.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] What\u2019s the most important thing in your life right now?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] To convince Brandan to change his ways. I know Father loves both of us, but Brandan doesn\u2019t\u00a0believe that. If he would just stop for a moment he would realize that and things would go much easier\u00a0for him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi]\u00a0What do you hope nobody ever finds out about you?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] If you are sure you won\u2019t tell anyone, I let my father down. I\u2019m not strong enough to continue\u00a0the battle. I am afraid I killed Father.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] What do you like or dislike about the other characters from your book?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] I guess I can\u2019t think of too many things to dislike. I just wish Brandan would adjust his attitude.\u00a0Things could be so much better if he were a little more agreeable.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Aadi] Okay, last question. Who would play you in the movie?<\/p>\n

[Joachim] I think Tom Hiddleston would be good.<\/strong><\/p>\n
