Damien was a product of incest. His dad and mom were half siblings but they didn’t know and fell in love. Hence why Damien was born a boy. In the Taran bloodline, males are born out of incest/inbreeding.
This is why Philip later is obsessed with Lucia getting pregnant. She fulfills all the requirements for being able to get pregnant and having a daughter.
He wanted Lucia + Hugh’s daughter and Damien( they would be cousins) to marry so they could continue the “Taran bloodline”. But obviously Hugh would never let that happen.
