"The next day, Skaryn's father beaten beyond recovery and brutally murdered after becoming a useless, crippled slave. Witnessing his father's death wasn't heartbreaking at all for Skaryn, though," added Daruun.
"Among the slaves, the concept of parents wasn't very present. They had all been separated at birth, only recognizing their parents later due to bearing a similar serial code engraved in their unhidden slave curses. And the parents never cared or searched for their children either. They had been drugged and forced to mate like animals in a tyrannical zoo, not allowed to show love or even understand what love is. That was the environment that shaped Skaryn."
