He is reserved in real life but obsessive online. Having suspected Thalia’s identity from her voice, he tests her secretly. After the crisis of being drugged and abducted by Leander, they resolve misunderstandings and fall in love. An identical vintage ring in an old photo plants a mysterious clue about Thalia’s origin.
