When Kyran turned 18, his life turned upside down. The Royal Army raided his clan because his supposedly non-existent magic got exposed. On that fateful night, he was the only one who escaped. Up to the present, the status of his clan was unknown. A magic inheritance that became a curse, Kyran became a fugitive. Always on the run... living in fear when the Royal Army finally captures him. At least that's what most people thought... "I'll definitely save my family. And I will make all those who made my clan suffer pay tenfold. I'll make use of this magic they so feared, and show them what real terror is...." Disclaimer: The cover image isn't mine. I'll replace it when I finished mine.
Indeed, their talk about the past veered slightly off-track because they addressed what inspired the Four Greatest Minds of the Ancients to create artificial Ancient Magic Cores.
Armed with the information Kairos had shared, Kyran pieced together a theory that filled the gaps in his understanding of what the Four Greatest Minds had discovered through the Looking Glass.
Kyran chose not to discuss his theory openly with Kairos because they would probably veer off-topic once more.
For the record, Kyran's understanding of what transpired back then was as follows:
(1) The Four Greatest Minds discovered something involving the Fates that caused The Fall— something far more sinister than The Fall itself, which was why the Four Greatest Minds still went ahead with researching how to produce artificial Ancient Magic Cores even when it would also trigger The Fall.
