Nocti: Nocti is the 15 year old daughter of Lion-O & Hystalin. She has the blood of Thunderian royalty and that of an Angeleese warrior. This is strong in the ways of magic and strength.

Nocti opens the door and Nocti's boyfriend shows up. They kiss and they leave for their date. Lion-O & Hystalin sits in a love seat and chat for a bit.

Lion-O: Boy, I feel so tired.
Hystalin: Me too. I never thought that fight would drain so much out of me!
Lion-O: Honey, do you remember when we fought that ghost of Mumm-Ra in the Mountain of Ice?
Hystalin: Of course! That Undead Harm spell drained so much out of me!
Lion-O: I faintly remember that you said that Mumm-Ra was your brother.
Hystalin: You know, the Undead Harm spell drains your life force. It's very taxing.
Lion-O: Could you care to explain that?
Hystalin: If you use too much of your life force with that spell, you could die.
Lion-O: Hyst, I think you're avoiding the subject.
Hystalin: *sigh* I'm sorry. Like I said, it's not something that I like to talk about.
Lion-O: If you're ashamed, don't be. Whatever you say to me, it'll stay in my mind.
Hystalin: Of course. All right I'll tell you...

It all started about 2000... no, 3000 years ago, back on Angelus. I was the oldest of 6 daughters, but I had an older brother. His name was Muhin. Me and Muhin were in training to become powerful black paladins. We were very close. One day, we decided to study in the Angelus Library, when I found a book. It was a very mysterious book that somehow enthralled me for some time. When I found it, it had a strange magic lock. Muhin mastered the Unlock spell and opened it for me. When the book opened, there was a large bright light. We were both scared. Muhin reacted quickly, but I was paralyzed with fear. Muhin quickly grabbed me and threw me out of the library quickly, but it was too late for my brother. Before I could go back in the library so I could save him, there was an explosion. Muhin shot of there like a bat out of hell. I knew that his mind has been destroyed and that his soul had been tainted, but I didn't want to believe it. My guess is that something in that book made him evil. I took the book with me, just in case. There was nothing I could do as an apprentice, so I had to slowly master my magic skills before I could do anything. When I turned 18, I graduated at the highest of my class. I even mastered the Undead Harm spell that you saw me use. I was awarded with the Magic Sword of Fire for my high grades. After I graduated, I started wandering through all of Angelus to find my brother and to cure him of what caused him to go mad. While I was traveling, I found a big, black pyramid surrounded by 4 obelisks. I went in. There were many traps and secrets in it, but with my magic skills I passed them all. At the end, I found a large room. There were 4 large statues, a large cauldron, and a casket. It looked rather ominous. The casket opened and before my eyes, there was Muhin. He looked very different from the last time I saw him. He looked tainted and dark, like he sold his soul to the devil. I realized that whatever in the book twisted his mind, and made whatever evil impulses in his mind took over completely. I said to him. "Muhin! Muhin! It's me Hyst! I thought I'd never find you again!" He just pushed me away and told me that he wanted to kill me for deserting him when he was facing death. I told him that there was nothing I could do! He threw a Dark Power spell at me. I was shocked that my own flesh and blood would attack me. I threw some defense spells while I tried to talk to him, but he cut through every single one. His fire spells went through my Anti-Fire aura. His ice spells penetrated my Anti-Ice aura. Even one of my most powerful defense spells, Anti-Lightling, was cut through with his lightning spell. There was nothing I could do. So I had no choice but to escape. I told my younger sisters the whole story. They told me of an Angeleese legent of an evil spirit names Rahz that was trapped in the Angeleese Library, sealed within a book. It turns out that Rahz possessed Muhin and woven in the fabrics of his mind. In the legend, that once Rahz has possessed a soul, the host's mind would be lost forever. It hit me that I had no choice. I realized that I had to seal him away from the world, not just for his protection, but for everyone else. Then, someone came and threw a big fire spell at me and my sisters. It was was my brother, and he then called himself, Muhin-Rahz. It was there that my sisters used our magic. It was then that we decided to seal him away. I found the book that Rahz was released from, and read that Rahz's greatest weakness in life. If we were to win, we had to take the life, and replace it with death. We had to use the Drain Life spell to slowly purge the life out of Muhin-Rahz. I grew sadder and sadder as I see a man who one was my closest friend, slowly wither away and decay. Muhin-Rahz because an undead, and in the process, I became immortal. It was a gift that I would never ask for, at the cost of my flesh and blood. Then I threw the book on the ground, wide open and used the Undead Harm spell. It weakened me somewhat, but it make the now undead Muhin-Rahz fall into the pages of the book. Then me, Ailura, Sindara, Electra, Krysa & Sistina sealed Muhin-Rahz in the book and put in a magic lock. It was sad that I had to literally kill him in order to save him. Muhin-Rahz spoke through the book, yelling that he will not stay locked up forever. He said, that if he sees me again, he would kill my sisters one by one for what I did to him, then he'd go after me. I knew the life of my sisters were in danger. So I left Angelus through the cosmos. I knew I had to leave the book in a very far away place so he wouldn't be a threat to anyone. So as I pass through space, I found a planet devoid of life. I placed the book in a field of sand and buried it so it would be sealed away forever. I returned to Angelus with tears in my eyes. I knew I couldn't see my brother again, so I've decided not to speak his name, for every time I heard the word Muhin, it would open those wounds all over again. I asked my sisters that every 20 years, that they check the planet in case he did escape. For every 20 years, my sisters checked the barren planet. With every visit, they notice small signs of life. After 1000 years, the planet was full of life. I felt guilty that I left a Pandora's Box in a world unsuspected of it's contents. I felt so ashamed. One day, when it was Sindara's turn to visit, she noticed that some animal found the book! It played and fiddled around with it until the magic lock was broken. The magic lock that was placed there must've grown weak by the years. Muhin-Rahz was released. He re-built his Black Pyramid with matching obelisks. Sindara telepathically told us that Muhin-Rahz has been released. Then, she told me that she's going to destroy him while he's still weak. I protested not to. That was the last time I heard Sindara alive again. I had to go back to the planet to find out. When I arrived, Muhin-Rahz, now calling himself Mumm-Ra, had mercilessly killed Sindara. I was so shocked. I fought against him in a one-on-one duel with him. After a year of standstills, I placed a TimeStop spell that would freeze him. Then, I wrapped him in magic bandages. I took the body and placed it back in Black Pyramid and sealed it in casket. I told him that I'm sorry that he turned into what he is now. I was about to leave, but the 4 giant statues began to speak. They said that he is now their servant of evil for the planet Third Earth. They re-woven the TimeStop spell that it would wear off after 1000 years, and they removed any memories of his former self from him. Then, the statues used their magic to cast me out of the planet. I tried to get back in, but a magic barrier was in place that I could not re-enter the planet. Ironically, it kept Mumm-Ra in. I never got to see Mumm-Ra gain.

Hystalin: ...and that is why I didn't want to talk about Mumm-Ra. I didn't want all the pain to come to me back again. It felt like they're killing him again, and I'd be reliving that horrible moment all over again.
Lion-O: I understand, but you got realize that you did what you had to do. It wasn't your fault.
Hystalin: I wish I could believe that Lion-O.

Just then Nocti comes back in angrily and slams the door shut.

Nocti: I just cannot believe this!
Hystalin: Honey, what happened?
Nocti: Remember my date, the perfect gentleman that I thought he was? He groped me and told me that he wanted to have his way with me... ON THE FIRST DATE!!!
Hystalin: That's terrible! What did you do?
Nocti: I kicked him in the groin, slapped him in the face and beat him senseless! I still cannot believe he did that to me! It's a good thing I didn't take his drink. I bet it was laced with Ruffies.
Lion-O: Well at least you're safe.
Nocti: Well, he won't be. Tomorrow, I'm going to shame him. I'm going to put some stuff in his locker and make everyone think he's gay. He'll be the laughing stock of New Thundera!
