His companions fell one by one and the woman he loved sacrificed herself in the final battle to ensure victory. Unable to cope with surviving when everyone else died, Kael disappeared.

Until one stubborn woman finds him and refuses to let him disappear. --- Relationship With Lyra Beginning Annoyance. Distrust. Emotional distance.
