Present from the relations (4)
I believe the answer is:
here
'present' is the definition.
('here' can be similar in meaning to 'present')
'from the relations' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'HERE' is hidden in the letters of 'the relations'.
(Other definitions for here that I've seen before include ""___ be dragons" (old map inscription?)" , "On this spot" , "The present location" , "At this stage" , "To hand" .)
