What if he is 'warlock' that she was entrusted to find by mage king.
That evil king also said he lost her twice but now she has physical body, so my idea is her soul is the duke's dead baby soul, they(mages) tried stilling her due to maybe Oracle or smth but her soul traveled to modern time(hence first 'lost'), then she returned in body of mage king child.
