How about this, Thunder Soldier is The King/Kyros/Rebecca's grandfather, with Scarlat as his Daughter, and Ricky is Rebecca's father.

Not being of royal blood could be why Ricky wasn't killed/tutned into a toy, and as for not letting Rebecca treat him she could have been given a description (including some very obvious scar ot some such) and would thus recognize him.

Thoughts?
