Cid is blamed for the explosion that caused the Palborough Mines accident that killed several miners 20 years ago, including Midras' real father Almid and Hilda's husband Sirius. In reality it was a Bomb monster that attacked the miners and set off the explosives as discovered in Vegetable Vegetable Frustration.
