good for him because wtf TT i'm still having a hard time forgiving kloff and idk if i ever will tbh, his son had every right to be pissed, my ass would kill him and cover it up as an accident, inform the siblings that their father was a piece of shit and then use the inheritance for good things like charity and a proper memorial for their mom jfc

Everyone know about Clough's crime so he is alienated by all, still has his wealth though. He's used to be a big shot in Finance Ministry, I guess. Even his children don't want to meet him anymore. He died lonely, hallucinating about Aeroc's still at the wooden cabin. The Linus dude, who knows yet let Clough carried on his revenge, got seduce by Rapiel (son) and being heartbroken by the fact that he hates him for letting his mother tortured and died like that.

Linus Woflake loved Rapiel (the dead wife of Clough) and he knew about the revenge Clough unleashed on Aeroc so let the two of them destroy each others, just be a standby. Rapiel knows about Aeroc from Hugo, his investigation led him to Linus. Rapiel seduces Linus to find out the whole story. Linus plants a spy among Clough's house staff to keep an eye on Clough and look into Rapiel's death.
on a completely unrelated note i’m still really interested in knowing more about what happened after aeroc in the first life died. how did the first son rapiel even learn aeroc was his biological father? what happened when the second son jester got injured? really curious as to how all the kids reacted to the news as well.
