By 1989, Ciara and Cellian were having doubts about the work they were doing for the pale man. Melanie Bush was captured and held by SenéNet, but escaped and was chased by the Stalker. The twins followed, but Cellian was attacked by the Stalker and lost his arm before Ciara could kill it. Her unemotional reaction to her brother's severe injury made Ciara realise how much of her humanity she had lost. After warning Mel about Krafchin, she took Cellian away. She hoped they could create a new life somewhere else, and make amends for all the wrongs they had committed. (PROSE: Business Unusual)
Ciara's arm grew back thanks to the nanites in him. By 1993, he and Ciara settled in the village of Halcham and helped out wherever they could. When the Cylox conflict reached the village, Ciara was fatally injured during the fighting. Due to their psychic connection, Cellian died shortly thereafter. (PROSE: Instruments of Darkness)
