Biography[]

Aeryn never met Talyn as he was killed when she was young.

At one point during their Peacekeeper careers, Talyn met the younger Xhalax. Unlike most Peacekeeper recreational relations, Talyn and Xhalax developed true feelings for each other and fell in love. While they knew that they had to keep their feeling hidden from their superiors, the couple chose to have a child and Xhalax went on to conceive Aeryn.

Cycles later, Xhalax chose to visit Aeryn and tell her the truth about her parents, believing that her daughter should know that she was special.[1] Xhalax's superiors learned of her visit to her daughter and gave her what they called a "choice": kill Talyn or kill Aeryn. To save their daughter, Xhalax killed Talyn.[2]

Later still, Aeryn named Moya's offspring Talyn after her father.[3]

Talyn the Impostor[]

False Talyn

The resemblance is uncanny.

While visiting the planet Valdun, Aeryn attempted to contact her dead father. She was soon met, however, by a man who claimed to be her father, albeit physically altered to remain hidden. A DNA scan seemed to confirm his claim, but it was in fact a ploy by Xhalax, who had tracked Aeryn to Valdun with hopes of hurting her daughter further after their initial encounter. In their final confrontation in Aeryn's room, Xhalax drew her pulse pistol and ordered "Talyn" to lie on the room's bed. After he did so, she shot and killed him.[4]
