"I am glad that you understood my message." He approached his daughter and hugged her, his eyes revealing his concern for his daughter.
While hugging her, he repeatedly apologized, "I am sorry. I couldn't come up with a better way to protect you. Because of me, you had to..."
His fingers brushed against the scar of his daughter. It was as if these weren't the scars on her, but scars on his heart.
He could have asked her to run away, but with the manhunt for the Intruders, it was going to be worse if she was confused as an Intruder and caught by the Stars.
He had to bring her back while making sure that she was safe. This was the only solution that seemed viable to him
Even though this was the only option he had, he still felt guilty for it. If he wasn't worried about protecting his entire clan from the Wrath of Primordials, he would have personally killed Rezekiel.
