Kreo's wife Catherine was killed by the abyssals in a fierce war many, many years ago.
It was so long back that any normal person's memory of that event would've blurred.
But with his own divine path acting as a curse, Evander remembered exactly how she died.
And how it changed everything forever.
It was a war on one of mars' planetoids.
Back then, humanity was significantly weaker than the abyssals. They were just starting the re-conquest of planetoids.
Albert and Kreo weren't Sovereigns yet.
Catherine was a high awakener with a bright future. Her daughter was ten years old and she too was expected to be a genius.
The war was going well.
Humans were gaining a grip on the planetoids.
Catherine was about to bag promotion with her merits. And then it happened.
A sudden reversal that no one expected.
Abyssals stormed the garrison Catherine was staying at, killing every single human.
As the head of that garrison, she was the 'prize'.
