Jorra had an elder brother.
Simon looked at Joren with mild surprise, though the feeling passed quickly. There was nothing strange about Jorra having a family. He simply hadn't expected to meet any of them here.
Then his Seed of Pride stirred.
This reaction was different from what he had felt toward Grand Elder Dread Crown.
What he felt as he stared at Joren was… disgust.
The seed seemed offended by something within Joren. Its disdain was so strong that Simon had to restrain it before any power escaped.
'Does he have the Seed of Pride too?'
If so, there was something wrong with it.
He had a guess.
[Lilith. Is his seed artificial?]
[Yes. He has an artificial Seed of Pride.]
Simon studied Joren again.
He wanted to know what made it different from his own. How was it created? What could it do? Why did his seed react as though its very existence was insulting?
He wanted to ask Lilith all these questions, but the questions would have to wait.
