Petre's family and former neighbors were killed months ago by soldiers. The dead were buried and the living tried to think what to do next Mhalyn was convinced Ain was not dead since the queen did not mention it with pride. If they could save him, he could lead their return to their country and free it from the Herald's control. It is dream for now. They agreed at least to go to the capital and look for Aim. They have only a fantasy to motivate them in their despair.

They need Lynix to come back and advise them about Cecil who must be like him A cambion is a mythical, often malevolent hybrid offspring of a human and a demon (typically an incubus or succubus), known for supernatural charisma, high intelligence, and manipulative abilities. Renowned for their immense power, they often excel at luring souls to the Abyss and are frequently depicted as "changelings" in folklore.

Cecil will definitely rock this extended family. Things must easily spiral out of control with a demon child who has no impulse controlo-*-even before the lawyers get involved

What a thought-provoking encounter. If true , this will change the normal understanding of human history Balder explained to Mark that he along with others visited earth and taught earthmen to work iron about 1200AD.A fight erupted within his people on how to treat other worlds, Loki and his members wanted to conquer and rule. Balder and others did want the same goals, He was wounded in battle and Thor,his brother sent him away to safety in his ship. Their healing power is exceptional since he may have been dead or near death, Balder was in his ship for500 years.
