The next day.
"So Tarmos, not to be rude, but what is your ancestor suppose to be?" Jagan said, who is looking at Tarmos's ancestor, who is in a metal cell (that is big enough for him), like the rest of his siblings, including Tarmos.
Where Tarmos and the Datu family are now is within a prison, that has never been used for a long time until now, and they are keeping a close eye on Rime.
"And is it necessary to keep him in there?" Amba asked, shyly to Tarmos. "He doesn't seem like a threat."
"It is necessary, Amba, for he is a danger to this world, even more dangerous than me to be honest." Tarmos replied.
Then, Tarmos begins to explain who Rime is and where he came from as he said. "Rime is a Gulo, ancient beings, created when the Multiverse was young (which is around 1100 - 1200 years old). His kind and my kind, are both brutal and violent races, yet there is peace and kindness within our societies."
"But, how are you two related?" Asked Sisu. "You, sorta, don't look alike... Maybe? No offense though."
Tarmos chuckles softly at this and gives Sisu a small smile. "None taken."
Afterwards, he explains. "A millennia ago, Rime found a new world to call home, where he found his wife, Kiara, a human. In time, Rime and Kiara fell in love and got married, and soon, they have wonderful children/hybrids, who would all grow up to become adults and have their kids of their own and etc. And other than that-." Tarmos starts to stomp angrily towards Rime as he speaks to him in an emotionless tone, saying. "How did you find me?"
This shocks the Gulo at his descendant's way of speaking as he expects Tarmos to be ecstatic about his ancestor's unexpected arrival to Kumandra.
"To be completely honest with you I traveled amongst the stars, in search for you, till I found a surge of energy that came from you. Our whole family and I still miss you."
"Miss me? *Scoffs* Yeah, like hell." Tarmos responded with a low snarl.
"T-Tarmos, don't act like that towards him, he's your elder, give him respect." Pengu spoke, sternly, and he is quite surprised to see this disrespectful side of Tarmos.
Tarmos turns around to look at Pengu, saying. "Respect him? How could I respect someone, who I've never seen in so many years."
"Little tarmo (warrior), please." Rime said.
Then, Tarmos spun around to face Rime with a glare and shouted. "Don't you dare call me that! You no longer have the right to call me that. Besides from that, how could I respect you, who simply done nothing to help me from my abusive man flesh uncle when I was just a bloody child! A-And don't you dare say you didn't know, you knew!"
Rime looks down in shame as he is being reminded all of the things he couldn't change.
"I am... Sorry. I do not expect you to forgive me, but please, you need to listen to me, just this once." Begged Rime.
Tarmos looks at him, with his unseen eyes, for a brief moment, till he sighs and spoke. "No, not now-."
Next, Tarmos moves closely towards the cell as he opens his eyes to his ancestor and proceeds to say. "-For your sight alone both hurts me and disgust me."
Tarmos closes his eyes and walks away from Rime, till he stops when he's near the Datu family. He spoke to them without making eye contact, and said. "I need some time alone, I can't stand him." Next, he looks at a shadowy figure leaning on the opened entrance of the prison and continues to say. "In the meantime, guard him will ya, Kannika?"
"As you command, Tarmos Rime." Said Kannika, giving Tarmos a goofy smile and a salute, of which she learned it from Tarmos. Afterwards, she walks happily to the cell of her prisoner, while saying. "It's good to have my former job back."Tarmos is now at a stone balcony, where behind him is a dark, perfectly triangular cave, and he's there with his mind filled with unwanted memories, of which is fueling his rage.
Out from the darkness of the triangular cave, out came Sisu. Tarmos hears her footsteps and knew that it was her, even though he isn't looking.
"Sisu." Tarmos simply spoke, who is facing his back at Sisu.
"H-Hi, Tarmos." Said Sisu.
"I guess you've found my residence when you spotted the real Kannika wandering near the hidden entrance to my home and let you in?"
"Yes I have, and I was surprised to know that she can make clones of herself and wow, the inside of your cave is truly something." Sisu replied, while complimenting Tarmos's home from the inside.
"Over these past months, I mined, dig, sculpted and curve things from my home world and I did those things in secret." Tarmos explained.
"And why did you have Kannika with you?" Sisu asked, who walks and sits next beside Tarmos. "I thought you hate her."
"Hate is a strong word, Sisu, I did not hate her, I was annoyed with her. The reason behind why Kannika living with me is because she doesn't have a proper home..."
