Background:
Kynan, is the product of a male sidhe and a mortal woman. Though he never got to know his father, his fay nature would make him stand out among the rest of society. To hide his true nature, he was able to access some of his innate magical abilities and assume a form that was less conspicuous so he would look like every other human. But magic would always interest him, so he developed his abilities as much as he could. Till he could find a way into the fay realm, and find his father. Once there, time moved slower outside of the real world. Where he spent 8 years in the fay world, it was only 4 years in the real world. After he finished his training with his father in the fay realm, he was allowed to return since he didn’t really belong their anyway. With an understanding of magic underneath his belt, he moved to London with his mother. And attended college, where his inquisitive and intuitive mind allowed him to become a Inventor.
