In Season 8, Kye went to the distant past to rescue Atalante's children. She succeeded, her group had to stay in the past for 100 years while building up the mana to traverse time again. They trained for the hundred years while preparing the portal, and were visited by Mavel Nacht Weltwald aka The Almighty. She granted Kye, Sanae, Alethea, Joey, and Kaede her blessing, which allowed them to use the Hand of Justice and Hand of Judgement blessings. After 100 years, they opened the portal and returned to their own time the moment they left, reuniting Atalante with Athanasia, Alexandros, and Artemios. Resuming the meeting that was taking place before the trip to the past, Kye announced Athanasia would work for her, for the betterment of Elysium. And she announced she would not require the satelites to return to Greater Elysium.

Afterward, everything returned to relative normalcy in the Royal Academy. Sometime later, Zen's strange behavoir grabbed Kye and company's attention. One day, Ranna was visited to discuss what to do to help Zen return to normal. Yami and Aliana went into Zen's palace, and found his behavior worse than they'd imagined. They found out that he had tossed his daughter Ren into a portal to stop her crying. Then, an adult Ren showed up and Zen disappeared. Ren told the group about her life after the portal, that she'd lived 270 years, forced to be a mercenary for Phantom. Fortunately, she was not warped by phantom's magic, so they were able to assimilate her into regular life and set her to go to the academy.
