Alexander felt his body being crushed every time he was squeezed. Something in his body felt empty as if he was a candle burned to the bottom. He heard murmuring and felt a closeness to those voices.

Wow he's hurt fairly bad! That witch was heavy handed.( Meddichai )Alexander heard a very sweet and calming voice.

I'll take care of him everyone give me room to work. ( Meddichai) Alexander suddenly felt warm sensation blanket his body it was very gentle and comforting.

Mother come quick! The kind voice spoke.

Yes my dear. What seems to be the problem? a mature but kind voice spoke.

Look at his soul it's so weird! The sweet and kind voice said very dramatically.

My dear don't be unkind with your words. You could have said it in a much kinder way. (Halcyon)

Mother I'm very serious! and weird is weird look at it yourself. ( Meddichai)

Fine fine I shall give it a look. Oh my it does seem a bit...odd. Is this what it's like for those who practice The Grand Astral technique or is it he himself that has such an unusual soul? ( Halcyon)

My soul is odd? The hell it is! it's a perfectly normal reincarnated soul! I think. .Alexander thought to himself.

What shall we do mother I don't think I can heal this the normal way. He's basically running on fumes. How could he burn his bloodline and soul so thoroughly? ( Meddichai)

We all do crazy things when the one we love is in danger. You may not have been born but when your aunt was killed we all went into a frenzy and viciously attacked the perpetrator. The woman who claimed to be their mother said with a hint of fierceness in her voice.

It was also that way with your umm cousins yes let's call them that. ( Halcyon)

Are they or are they not cousins Alexander though.

Mother I think we need to give him some blood to nourish him but he's so weak that it will probably be painful the sweet voice said concernedly . (Meddichai)

He's basically one of us. He will endure or he will die there are no middle ground options. (Halcyon)

Stolen novel; please report.

"Faust come here." Halcyon called for him.

I'm here mother what do you need? (Faust)

Out of all of us you have the best attainments in souls do you think he can be saved.

I heard a strong voice filled with confidence. It was more masculine and had a reliable quality to it. The voice made me feel safe and was very comforting. Alexander thought to himself.

Check out this child's soul. It's a bit odd if I say so myself.

I suddenly felt a cool feeling envelope my body.

Mother ... His soul is very weird.(Faust)

Hush now child you're old enough to know not to be hurtful with your words.(Halcyon)

No mother his soul is weird. Crow souls look like crows and human souls look like humans. Human with crow bloodlines still look human but with a different color. This new born looks like a mixed color human shaped crow or a crow shaped human. ( Faust)

Can he be healed? ( Halcyon)

It's possible but I believe the reason that his soul is different is his cultivation art. The Grand Astral technique is it?

If you look further from his base soul and look inward you can see a constellation one shaped like a man and one shaped like a crow and also a tree sapling.

Interesting so you thing his art is causing issues or do you believe it might be something else . (Meddichai)

I believe that Frindle did something and only she knows what she did.(Faust)

Will the child be okay or do we need to intervene? ( Halcyon)

Gather everyone mother I am going to try something but I am not guaranteed success. ( Faust)

DO NOT ENDANGER THIS CHILD FAUST! Halcyon spoke with finality.

Mother I may not succeed but it will not make his situation worse you have my word. ( Faust )

I'm being experimented on by a guy named Faust? This. does this seem safe. Alexander thought to himself.

Halcyon sent a mental command to everyone.

We're here mother what seems to be the emergency? (Aquarius)

Oh, a new voice! She seems bubbley and cheerful. Alexander thought to himself.

Yes mother why have you summoned us. ( Latem )

Another new voice this time it's rough and low pitched.

Everyone please listen to Faust over here. He thinks he can help the child but he needs all our help to do it.

Ohh Faust why didn't you just ask us. a lazy voice asked ( Gaia )

Isn't it obvious that if mother summoned us we would arrive faster. A stern sounding voice spoke. ( Celsius)

I have a hypothesis. First his cultivation technique is very unique. His main soul looks odd yes but if you force yourself inside you can see a galaxy with a few constellations. I believe the the crow shaped one is his main constellation his true soul and the others are souls that he has bonded or connected with Faust spoke to the group.

Isn't that dangerous. Isn't he opened to a soul take over? A very quick speaking voice said( Fulmen)

No this cultivation technique is... how to put it unique. You can only invite people into your soul and when you cultivate the techniques tied to them then you resonate with them and learn their memories and through their memories the refinement of said technique is strengthened. It seems like a short cut but the other person must trust you or else it won't work. Faust spoke.

One other thing it seems to only work with those who've learned The Grand Astral technique. If this child wanted to learn something from someone else they would start the basic technique and cultivate it and if the other person accepts it they resonate and pass on their knowledge through their practices time and leaves an imprint in the galaxy that the child created.

You basically become them while they lived their life and the problem lies here Frindle and the child seem to have an inferior copy of the Grand Astral technique and the resonance issue is rebounded back to the originator of the technique and they also remember everything all over again.

The newer versions must not have that flaw otherwise the constellation on the form of a man would have happened to cause issues but we have not seen or heard of anything like that.

Since they both practice the flawed version they both lived through the memories and if she practiced the child's imprinted technique the resonance would have happened but fortunately or unfortunately it didn't and this child was saved from relieving these memories at an inappropriate time.

So what shall we do? Celsius asked

I need to examine your souls and see how it works compared to your crow lineage. I will also need a drop of blood and a feather to create a concoction so that the child can become stronger. With a stronger body he may house a stronger soul. (Faust)

"I will be the first, come my child and examine me." Halcyon replied with confidence and determination that an ancestor should have.
