Though confirmation wasn't requested, the young Melonii provided further proof of his heritage. Proof that would have been more efficient on someone more familiar with the ties and names that composed the Melonii family tree (or perhaps family web is a more appropriate term?), for truly Damien was in the dark about his heritage.

But he took the comment as it was, no more than a fact, and believed the man in front of him for now. What he found himself more interested in was in fact his explanation of how he had ended up with them. Now, you could say it was just a fairy tale meant to scare innocent spiderlings, but Damien had always taken his mother's story about the stars as factual. They were the eyes of those who had escaped the Brotherhood's claws, and as such the messages they could have conveyed to Marruz were worthy of suspicion. They speak to you, then? the shadow lord was curious to know.
