190 Star-crossed

"I was told she's with Kresnik now…"

WHAT?

Ivan hadn't realized he stood up in shock. "My great-grandpa's here?"

He couldn't believe it.

Unlike Perun who first appeared as a mortal for the first time in the form of Alistair, Kresnik was a constant returner to ancestry. The last time was as Vladimir, the most powerful Flame Emperor in the history of Kres, the returner to ancestry Kresnik and the current emperor's great-grandfather.

He was the reigning monarch who had sent his firstborn son in the pursuit of Kronos' artifact. But of course, that was what the legends said. The truth was entirely different, but it was a discussion for another day.

In a nutshell, Kresnik appeared more frequently in the mortal plane in his quest to find Alencica and be reunited with her.

However, all their reunions ended up devastatingly as was the curse.
