Some years later, Kaecilius now trains novices as a Master of the Mystic Arts. After the training he tries to meditate, however he is frustrated that after all this time and all his study, he is still not able to bring him and his family back together. He goes to see the Ancient One and blames her for not sharing the knowledge to change his past. The Ancient One explains that she promised to help him resolve his pain of the past but that some forces shouldn't be dabbled in, even by a Master of the Mystic Arts.

Without the help of the Ancient One, Kaecilius searches for answers in the library of Kamar-Taj which point him to the Book of Cagliostro. During a training fight he asks Daniel Drumm, if he isn't bothered that the Ancient One isn't willing to share all of her knowledge. But Drumm doens't question the Ancient One's methods and is able to strike a blow at a distracted Kaecilius. Later in bed, Kaecilius wakes up in panic with dark dreams of his wife.
