tw for parental death

—

When Telian is 8 he witnesses his parents’ deaths (murdered unarmed & in their home by a Republic soldier). He then grows up hating the Republic & wanting to seek revenge. He eventually joins the Empire, ultimately becoming a cipher agent… all of which was motivated by spite, desire to avenge his parents’ deaths, and knowledge that his parents had worked for the Empire and therefore he was following in their footsteps—it allowed him to have a bittersweet connection with them/his memory of them

BUT he finds out a couple years after leaving the Empire & going rogue that his parents were actually double agents working for the Republic/SIS

The Empire had discovered they were double agents and sent a cipher agent disguised as a Republic soldier to dispose of them, the Republic uniform being what Telian saw and remembered as the cause of their deaths

So basically instead of honoring/avenging them, Telian became the absolute last thing Emmix & Lieta would’ve wanted their son to become: a weapon for their mortal enemies :)
