Ymir's introduction into Hexside. Story below.

"Here he is miss Eda, remember Ymir? He lived with you for a while before we adopted him." Amity Blight proclaimed proudly gesturing to her adopted demon son. "You're saying this as if I have dementia. Of course I remember little Yimi, I saw him last week!" Edalyn Clawthorne laughed, "So you're not homeschooling him after all?" "We talked about it and came to the conclusion that he would turn out better if he had a normal school experience... As normal as Hexside can offer that is" Luz Noceda, Ymir's other adopted mom chuckled, "Ymir, come on in and tell auntie Eda which track you wanted!" she urged her son, who was hiding his face behind his books. He peeked over the books at his moms and after a moment spoke in a shaky voice. "I... I changed... m-my mind. Can we go home please?" Eda narrowed her eyes at Luz "What did you do to the poor kid?" "He was fine when we were talking about it at home, I promise! MirMir what's wrong? Talk to us please!" Luz let go of Amity and approached their son very concerned, "What's going on honey?" Ymir looked away and whispered "They're all gonna hate me. They will know I helped Belos and they will hate my guts... and bully me...", and before Luz had a chance to speak Eda shouted "Not on my watch! No one will dare lay a finger on you w-" Ymir recoiled at the sudden loud noise and mouthed "sorry", to which Eda adjusted herself in her principal's chair and lowered her voice " No no I'm sorry, I forgot... He screamed at you a lot, didn't he little one?" to which Ymir nodded, still looking away. Eda spoke again, softer this time "My point is nobody will hate you for being Belos' butler or maid or whatever, because you were forced into it. It's not your fault. And even if somebody tries to bully you for it, you just gotta tell auntie Eda, and auntie Eda will crumple them into dust." Ymir looked up at her still unsure, "You promise auntie Eda?" "Like a piece of chalk!" Eda crushed a chalk piece into dust, spawning a white dust cloud that made her cough. Ymir giggled at that. "Alright... I wanted... Oracle.

Damien hears the Truth

This is a one-shot canon from a Korean web novel called "LUCIA". It contains spoilers from the novel. Read at your own risk.

If you want to read it, you can DM me for the link or just search for RubyMaybeTranslating. It's a classic arranged marriage in European setting kind of story and Ruby had done an amazing job translating.

----------------------------

Damian felt nervous. Father and Mother had called him for tea in the evening. They haven't mentioned anything serious but his instincts told him it is something serious.

'Did they find about her?' he thought, 'No they couldn't I have done my best to hide her.'

He stood outside his mother's recieving room. It was nothing like the receiving room in Raom but it had the same warmth.

"Come Damien, let me pour you some tea. How did the meeting go?" His Mother asked him. She looked just as she did all those years ago and so did his father who sat next to her.

"The meeting went well Mom." He replied and took the tea his mother had made for him. He took the first sip and noticed how his father had motioned for all the maids to leave the room.

"Your father and I, we wished to discuss something with you Damien." Lucia broke the silence after taking a sip of her own tea, "Hugh tell him in detail." She elbowed her husband.

Damian always wondered how his very fragile mother rulled over the formidable Duke Hugh Taran. The world feared him and he worshipped her.

But for the first time he saw geniune delimma on his father's face. It made him worry more about what they wished to talk about.

"I never wanted to tell you this. But your mother believes you need to know this. You-"

"Remember before your father tells you anything. We love you Damien. You know that right?" Lucia cut him off in panic.

"I do mother, I do." Damien answered not only to reassure his mother but also because he felt her love. He knew that Lucia loved him as much as she loved Eve. That it didn't matter to her that he wasn't her biological son.

Damien noted that Lucia kept glancing between Hugh and him as if she wished to hold both of there hands.

"Let me start from the start. You might have realised this as well Damien, we Taran aren't like normal human beings. Our strength, mind, nature are very different from ordinary people. That is because we aren't completely human atleast not in the normal sense. I will explain you in detail later of our origin. Just know we are a fucked up bloodline that got glorified because of our-"

"Hugh!" Lucia warned him. "Damien, you and your father are not messed up. You are not just what your blood makes you. Okay?"

"Yes Mother." Damian replied. He looked at Duke to continue his story not minding his comments. He was more interested in this story. Like he was finnally getting the piece about himself that he was missing.

"Anyways children are hard for our bloodline. Boys can only be born between step siblings and girls can only be born after a tedious process. And to keep this secret hidden a lot of sacrifices and dirty play was done."

Damien paused, he felt like his world pause. But his mind was running faster than ever. "So I-"

"Keep you questions boy," his father objected, "let me finish first."

"So when the former Duke had twin sons he technically didn't need both of them. So he decided to throw away one of them. I, Hue, was given to mercenaries and my brother, Hugh was here studying as the next Duke. All was good for them untill there realise Hugh wasn't like the rest of Taran. He was gentle and kind and generous. He didn't exhibit the traits of Taran bloodline. "

Hugh paused to let everything sink into Damian. "But that wasn't acceptable so they start looking for me. Hugh already knew I existed we were brothers after all. We loved each other a lot in our own ways."

This story Damien knew. But he never knew that his father wasn't actually Hugh rather he was Hue. The son that was discarded. He suddenly realised how much his father had suffered as he could guess what was about to happend next.

"So, we both were threatened by our own parents. I was told to live as Hugh because I was what they called the perfect Taran male. And he was made to live in shadows. You know what happened next."

Hugh paused once again, this time taking a big breath. Lucia's hand come up to his back as she comforted him silently. "He loved me, and he knew that we both will be used for eternity by these people. So, he did his best and killed them all. And left me just one note. I truly hated myself then. I felt anger, sadness and helpless for the first time in my life. I-"

Hugh couldn't continue anymore. Damien felt his heart squeezing seeing his father like that. His father was truly a strong man. To endure all of this at the age of 18. He was 18 too and he couldn't even fathom how lonely his father might have felt.

"Anyways I thought my bloodline would end with me. I truly didn't want any child. I didn't not want another Taran boy with black hair and red eyes to exists."

Damien stiffened. Afterall he was the stark contrast of his father's wishes. He didn't knew when but his mother had come to sit next to him and placed a gentle hand on his arm.

"But to my surprise, came you. You were brought by the Taran Doctor called Philip. He brought you in front of me and said that my brother had a son."

Damien stopped breathing. It was him, he was the brothers son. That means his father wasn't his father. But rather his father was dead, dead years ago.

He felt his mother's hand tightining on his arm and it made him snap out of his spiral. Both his mother and father were looking at him in worry.

"My brother had told me he loved a woman, he didn't know she was his step sibling. He truly loved this woman. Your mother went away after your father died and I never looked for her. She must have handed you to Philip as he informed me that she passed away shortly after your birth. So I decided to lie. No one knew the truth that I wasn't Hugh. No one knew you were the real Hugh's son. But I knew you desrved to live from the first moment I saw you."

"You looked exactly like him when he was young too. And this might not make sense to you cause afterall we were twins but he was like Sunshine and innocent to fault. And you radiated that energy too. But it was also a fault in my plan to be the last living Taran."

"I am sorry Fathe- Duk- Hugh uh" Damien fumbled still feeling that everything was surreal.

"Oh don't start kid. I am your father, and I will be your father." Hugh insisted.

"And I am you mother, and nothing will change that. We love you." Lucia reassured him again.

"I struggled with my resolution for a long time. But then I saw you and your mother together. And I realised that Taran bloodline will end with me. Because you are not like us, you are just like that idiot. So, instead you will start a new Taran legacy. "

"I am so proud of what you have become Damien." It was not often that Damien hears his father talk so softly to him, "He would have been proud of you too."

Damien felt someone whipping his face. He didn't even realise he had shed a few tears and that his mother was whipping them. Lucia was also crying but she was trying her best to comfort him.

"Mom, I am okay. I really am." Damien assured his mother because he wasn't a small boy anymore and can comfort his mother back.

All three of them stayed silent for some moment. Damine as he took in these truths about his life. He could feel his mother staring at him and his father looking at him occasionally too.

"...Mother and father" Damien say hesitatingly, "I am okay. Don't worry." He reassured his mom.

"See I told you he would be alright, you were worried for anything." Hugh commented.

Lucia laughed at him and so did Damien. He really was shocked for a second but as he saw how much they were worried for him and how much they loved him. He knew he would take time to let that sink in but he would be okay.

"Damien, you are young but don't worry when you get married, and if you want to have children in future we know appropriate measures to take."

"MOM!"

Hugh snickers at his son's embarrassed face. He had told Lucia to hold that piece of information for later but his wife ever so curious doesn't realize that her little boy isn't little anymore.

"I know I know so whenever you have a woman you like tell us."

"Yes Mom, I will." Damine answered still red in the face.

Seeing her showering so much love on their son, Hugh felt a little mischievous and wanted to mess with Damien a little.

"Oh you would tell us. But I don't we know about her then, the one from the academy."

Both Damien and Lucia looked at him, one in disbelief and other in confusion.

It took a moment for Lucia to realise what Hugh meant but she added two and two in her head and shot Damien.

"Damien, do you have someone you like? Why didn't you tell me?" Lucia asked him visibly upset.

"Mom, I would have. But I couldn't find her, she had disappeared. So I was hesitant to tell you anything." He explained briefly.

"She had disappeared? So why aren't you going to search for her? Did you tell her you like her?"

"No I haven't told her Mom. I was studying at the academy not doing this." He said.

"You are just like your father. Let me tell you how we got married. So I was the-" Lucia started her story.

But at some point Hugh had come behind her and he promptly covered her mouth and lifted her in his arms. "You go prepare for meeting. Your mother and I will meet you for dinner."

He could hear his mother's muffled voice as his father laughed and he left the room. He wished to find love like theirs someday.
