In truth, it was not only Nadula. Even Anima had more than once felt that this Hero, who had reappeared after a thousand years despite theoretically never being meant to appear again, was simply far too unusual.
His personality and conduct were one thing, but most importantly, his relationships were utterly bizarre.
