As the Crown Prince grew, he became acutely aware of the events that had transpired seven years ago. His mother had been kidnapped by the incarnation of evil, King Aldric of Varinthia. It was thanks to the combined efforts of Egon von Conradie, Kaiser de Lanark, and her best friend, Sasha of Kolhis, that she was rescued from her captor.
The Crown Prince still harbored one unanswered question that had lingered since his trip to the mountains, and he refrained from asking the royal family about this particular topic: Why did Egon von Conradie leave Emoria immediately following his mother's return from Varinthia?
The young boy possessed the intellect to discern an answer to that question independently. In his view, Egon von Conradie was as misguided as the subjects his mother had shielded Noctavian from. It appeared that Egon had concocted narratives that contradicted his mother's account of events during her kidnapping.
