Family
In the past, Majestic and Zealot had a relationship and ended up with a child. The child was Savant. She could not be a warrior and a mother so Zealot gave her daughter to her mother and pretended that she and Savant were sisters. She told Majestic the child did not survive and since most Kherubim can’t have children, he didn’t question her. She knew the truth however and out of shame, usually avoids Majestic when she can and acts like she’s angry at him when she can't. (In Mr. Majestic's second solo series the truth was revealed to him, but exactly what he did with the information is unknown. The revelation might have been undone after Worldstorm so the Majestic/Zealot/Savant relationship may be a secret again. Further, the version of Majestic that had discovered this truth died shortly after the discovery due to unshielded time travel, and there is no reason to think the remaining version would have discovered this information). Sometime after this Majestic had a son he named Majestrate with a Kheran woman who is never named. Majestrate was on the Kherubim ship when it crashed on Earth and he died. Thousands of years later Majestic resurrected him by putting a copy of his mind into a robot he powered with pre-dimensional star-stuff he gathered from a dimension called Otherspace. The reborn boy brought Majestic great happiness but not for long. When Majestic had taken the star-stuff it caused reaction that ended up creating something like a black hole on Earth. The only way to correct it was for Majestrate to throw himself into it. Majestic didn’t want him to, but the boy wouldn’t be stopped, he sacrificed himself to save the planet, throwing his father into a deep depression.

Famous quotes containing the word family:
“Much that is urged on us new parents is useless, because we didn’t really choose it. It was pushed on us. It—whether it be Raffi videos, French lessons, or the complete works of Brazelton—might be just right for you and your particular child. But it is only right when you feel that it is. You know your family best; you decide.”
—Sonia Taitz (20th century)
“The family environment in which your children are growing up is different from that in which you grew up. The decisions our parents made and the strategies they used were developed in a different context from what we face today, even if the “content” of the problem is the same. It is a mistake to think that our own experience as children and adolescents will give us all we need to help our children. The rules of the game have changed.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“In the U.S. for instance, the value of a homemaker’s productive work has been imputed mostly when she was maimed or killed and insurance companies and/or the courts had to calculate the amount to pay her family in damages. Even at that, the rates were mostly pink collar and the big number was attributed to the husband’s pain and suffering.”
—Gloria Steinem (20th century)
