HELSTOR ran away while Princess Neoma was saying goodbye to Emperor Nikolai.
That was the best move he could do because he was severely injured. The eye that he stole was stolen from him, and he even lost a hand.
But that was the last of his concerns since his limbs and organs would come back later.
[The first timeline is the problem!]
It wasn't like Helstor wasn't aware that there was a first timeline before the current one.
He had a chance to eat some of Ruto Solfrid's memories before. According to the images he had seen, it seemed like the commander and Princess Neoma had a baby in the past.
But those were just images with no context.
Hence, he just made a story to mess with Princess Neoma.
["Lord Helstor ate some of Ruston Stroganoff's memories, and there he saw a snippet of your tragic love story. You had a baby with Commander Yoan, but you killed that baby while the poor thing was still in your womb."]
