The family were all in the sea, playing together. Dorian's grandma had even taken a ball from the house so they were all playing together. At some point though, Dorian felt someone trying to invade his mind. Instinctively, he tried to resist, but then felt the mind power was familiar.
Moreover, it was so strong that any defense he put in place was useless before it. And yet, it didn't try to barge in. So Dorian opened his defenses, and sent in his mind. Still, he left a part of his consciousness behind to operate his body, that was something he learned to do thanks to his 30 in Intelligence.
Inside his mind, Dorian saw the hundreds of spirits were roaming aimlessly around his Mind Palace. As for Tibo, he was sleeping against the small Mind Palace. But then, Dorian felt a newcomer.
There, in the sky, a giant hammer that seemed to be made of the finest steel descended. From it, Dorian heard his grandfather's voice "Dorian, I see you know the Mind Arts too, that will make things easier."
Dorian felt conflicted about his grandfather, because in his heart that was still his kind elderly grandfather, but his paranoia from Dreamland also made him wary. Still, Dorian tried to force the paranoia away and replied "Papy, I didn't expect you to be a Dreamer as well."
The hammer suddenly started transforming until morphing into Dorian's grandfather. Benjamin smiled and said "On the contrary, I expected one of you kids to become one eventually."
Dorian manipulated the dark matter around and created two simple chairs, and transformed into his human form too. The two sat and Dorian asked "How?"
Benjamin said nothing, but suddenly a pair of wings appeared on his back. Dorian recognized them as the Angel wings he too had. Benjamin said "Your bloodline is too scarce to feel it, but with my level of bloodline I can feel you have awakened yours… How did you awaken it?"
Dorian didn't answer, and instead asked "How long have you been a Dreamer?" Benjamin laughed and said "If you wonder whether I am still your grandfather, then yes I am. I entered Dreamland in 1756."
Dorian froze in shock. Seeing his reaction, Benjamin laughed and said "I know, what a surprise! But now you know that I have always been the same since you were born. Since your father was born. Actually, I met your grandmother when I was there."
Dorian sighed and said "Mamie is a Dreamer too… How old is she, if that isn't too indiscreet? Also, am I also your grand kid, or great great grand kid or something?"
Benjamin shook his head and said "Your grandmother was born in 1798. And you really are my sole grandson, your father was our first child. For a long time we have feared having a kid due to how Dreamland is."
Dorian lowered his head and asked "Before I tell you what happened to me, can you tell me a bit of yours and grandma please?"
Benjamin laughed and said "Sure. Well to begin, I was born in 1736, my father was a blacksmith and I learned from him. When I turned 20, I was introduced to Dreamland. There, I gradually became stronger, but I can't tell you much about that. What I can tell you though, was that I played a pretty big part in the revolution. As well as in Robespierre's death. Actually, Robespierre was a Dreamer too, and he tried to kill me because of some petty problems… That ended with his death, as you know."
Dorian tilted his head and asked "Wasn't he decapitated?" Benjamin smiled and said "Do you know about the Hope Empire?" Dorian nodded "A bit, I know the basics."
Benjamin continued "Well, know that behind every influential leader, there was the Hope Empire. So changing history isn't that hard. After Robespierre's death, I started hanging out with Napoleon, we did a couple missions together for the Hope Empire and rose in the ranks. He was even given the position of Emperor, which he liked quite a bit. Unfortunately, he was killed by an enemy world…"
Dorian interrupted and said "Wait, slow down… You did missions for the Hope Empire? An enemy world? What are those? And most importantly, you knew Napoleon?!"
Benjamin laughed "There are many things you don't know yet, but I can't tell you until you grow stronger. When you Ascend, I will be able to tell you some things, and when you Transcend I will be able to tell you pretty much everything."
Dorian asked "What rank are you?"
Benjamin smiled "I can't spoil you the surprise, can I? All I can tell you is that I am one of the 12 Council Elders, which are just below the Emperor in term of power, is that enough for you?"
Dorian was gobsmacked "Are you kidding me?" Benjamin shook his head and said "Impersonating as someone of my rank is a very grave crime, with a punishment worst than death. When I was born, I didn't have a last name. Do you want to know why we are called Hunt?"
Dorian smiled and asked "Tell me." Now, all traces of doubt and vigilance had been dropped. That was still his grandfather he loved, he hadn't changed, he still narrated his stories the same way, although those ones were new and more exciting than child stories. But now that he thought of it, the stories his grandfather had counted him when he was a child, were they actually some of his adventures? Too bad he was too young to remember anything…
Benjamin said "To reach my place, you do not only need power, but influence and achievements to your name too. For me, I had reached the strength and influence necessary a long time before being promoted. What allowed me to be promoted, was a particular mission. One of the older Council members had actually been found out to be a traitor, and a double agent. I chased this man through two dimensions and for 69 years before finally killing him. That's how I became known as the Hunter, and was given the name Hunt."
Now, Dorian was grinning from ear to ear. He said "I didn't think my Papy was so awesome! To be honest, I thought I would have to face alone everything that would be about to come, but seeing you too are a Dreamer… You don't know how relieved I am."
Benjamin smiled warmly and said "I will always be there for you, be it you, your sisters or your parents."
Dorian nodded, and asked eagerly "What about Mamie?" Benjamin put his forearms against his knees as he began explaining "You see, Pauline has very different origins from mine. You remember about me saying Napoleon was a friend of mine?"
Dorian nodded, so Benjamin said "Well, in the end he wasn't only a friend, but my brother in law. You have Imperial blood in you."
Dorian opened his eyes wide. Imperial blood, him? But as he thought about the idea, he realized it wasn't that big of a deal. What was an Emperor in front of an Angel?
Benjamin designed him with his head and said "Now you know everything about me, tell me about you? How many missions did you went through? How did you do?"
Dorian froze a little, and said "Hum… I'm not sure you want to hear what I did… I somewhat made a name to myself too…" Benjamin raised an eyebrow and said "Really? That's my grandson haha! But don't worry, I won't judge you. But I can understand your reluctance, so let me tell you one story of mine. If you don't judge me, I won't judge you."
Dorian nodded, so Benjamin said "First, both your grandmother and I are Predators, you are one too, right? You aren't one of those filthy… How do you feel about the Sheep, before I say anything bad?" Dorian grinned "Don't worry, I'm not one of them. I think my next mission will be a Hunt. And when you hear my story, you will understand you can trash them as much as you want, I won't judge."
Benjamin laughed loudly "You really are my grandson! So as you know Predators have additional Hunt missions, and my story was during one of them."
