Twenty years ago...

Jaejoong had travelled back in time to save his eighteen-year-old self from the hordes of undead and to reclaim the memory that the Cult of SooHyuk had wiped away from his mind. Cloud who remembered everything had refused to tell him those lost memories with the exception that he had to save his younger self by going back in time. Cloud insisted that he had to relive those events himself. Because it was the only way for everything to return to normal. And according to Cloud, Jaejoong himself had decided before he lost his memory to travel back in time.

As proof, Cloud had shown Jaejoong where he had hidden his own letter to himself telling him to travel through time and relive the time lost from his memory.

In order not to change the future and to remain unknown to historians, Jaejoong had called himself Han and made his eighteen-year-old self believed that they were distant cousins.

A small valley lay between the Angora mountains. It had an oasis, plants and trees; and most desert animals knew this place, so their group had no problem getting food. The five of them became like a family. Him, being the eldest became the father figure, Donghae-the elder brother, Dara-the elder sister, young Jaejoong as the youngest and Cloud sometimes became a pet and sometimes like a wise grandfather depending on his mood.

Jaejoong had also begun training Dara and young Jaejoong. He couldn't help but be amused whenever the two got into a fight. Young Jaejoong's pride always suffered since all his fighting skills had been transferred to Dara's body.

When Jaejoong first met Dara, he didn't recognize her as the cold and aloof Wisdom incarnation of the Oracle he still remembered.
