Soma and Kali trained under the same master in their youth and, later on, signed on with the military together. When they served under the banner of Xyperia, they had always gone into battle side by side.

Hence, the duo had developed tremendous chemistry over time, enhancing each other's fighting prowess whenever they joined forces.
