Kalas

He grew up in the city of Balancoire, capital of Mira, where he lived with his grandfather Georg and his little brother Fee.

His only know friends from this time are Trill and an unnamed man who is later seen working for a local shop.

Otherwise, he was ostracized by most of Balancoire's inhabitants for his single Wing of the Heart—such a deformity being presumed a sign of a tainted soul.

As a result, he became particularly close with his family, and even promised Fee that he would help him find the great Whale someday.

Two years prior to the game's events, Giacomo, an officer of the Imperial military, and his subordinate Ayme attack Kalas and his brother and grandfather, burning their home to the ground.

Georg dies in the fire, while both Fee and Kalas are shot and mortally wounded by Ayme.

The brothers manage to escape into the forests of Nekton before Fee collapses and dies in Kalas's arms.

(It is later revealed that Kalas died from his wounds as well, but was revived by the will of Fee, the Divine Child, who infused him with his own soul to save him.)

Bereaved and enraged, Kalas encounters Melodia who offers to help him obtain his revenge, in addition to the perfect wings he always longed for, in exchange for his hand in resurrecting the evil god Malpercio.

He accepts, and Melodia leads him further into Nekton where he meets and bonds with a Guardian Spirit who lends him its powers.

What happens during the two years leading up to the beginning of the game is unknown.

However, the Guardian Spirit comes to disagree vehemently with Kalas and Melodia's plot to revive Malpercio.

Its defiance forces Melodia to wipe its memories at Kalas's request while the pair meet in Moonguile Forest, knocking Kalas unconscious in the process so that he can claim accidental amnesia as the cause of the Spirit's lost memories.

Unbeknownst to them, Xelha witnesses the exchange from the shadows.

Rather than saving Kalas herself and draw suspicion, Xelha recruits Meemai to carry Kalas back to the nearby village of Cebalrai.

The game begins when Kalas awakes under the care of Dr. Larikush.

He soon meets Xelha, who behaves as if she's never seen him before.

While exploring the forests, he later saves her from a Sabre Dragon, and together the two recover the End Magnus, only to be apprehended by Giacomo, who is also seeking after the Magnus.

The Imperials kidnap Xelha, whom Kalas inadvertently rescues as he tries to hunt down Giacomo at Lord Rodolfo's palace.

Kalas rejects her attempts to convince him to join her in her quest, but the pair decide to travel together so long as they are headed in the same direction.

As the story progresses, Kalas slowly begins to bond with their growing party of allies, but remains adamant that his only motive is revenge.

When the End Magnus in the group's possession goes missing, no one suspects him—save Xelha, who remains grimly silent about the matter—and it's later revealed that he slipped it to Melodia in Parnasse.

In Alfard, Kalas finally faces off with Giacomo and his companions aboard the Goldoba.

The party's near victory ends with the ship crash-landing in the desert, the fate of their enemies uncertain.

After the party defeats Geldoblame in the Lava Caves, Melodia and Kalas step forward as the true masterminds behind the plot regarding Malpercio's resurrection.

Kalas rejects the Guardian Spirit in favor of the power of the End Magnus, which bestows him with a full pair of glittering white wings.

Xelha, now bonded with the Guardian Spirit, and the rest of the party eventually attempt to rescue Kalas and thwart Melodia's efforts to revive the evil god.

A fight ensues and Xelha turns the Ocean Mirror on Kalas out of the misguided hope that it will free him from the evil powers.

Instead, the mirror burns Kalas nearly to death, and Xelha is forced to give up as Melodia incapacitates the party.

By the force his own will, and fueled by Xelha's memory, Kalas tears his left wing off; this severs Malpercio's influence and restores him to his original one-winged form.

Kalas begs forgiveness from his friends and re-bonds with the Guardian Spirit.

He rejoins the party for the rest of the game as they battle against Melodia and Malpercio's forces.

He exhibits the extent of his change of heart during Malpercio's attack on Duhr by refusing to leave the inhabitants and Mizuti's parents to die for the sake of the party.

After returning to Anuenue, Kalas recieves a letter from Doctor Larikush summoning him back to Sadal Suud, where Larikush explains to him his true origins as an artificial being crafted from Magnus by Georg himself.

Kalas then defeats Giacomo a final time at his grandfather's old cabin in the Celestial Alps and discovers a second winglet his grandfather left for him there.

With the help of the Divine Child, the party defeats Malpercio and rescue Melodia, restoring the nations to Earth.

However, another sacrifice must be made: Xelha reveals to Kalas that the lost Ocean sealed within her being, and that he and the Guardian Spirit must help her release it.

Kalas, who has become close with her over the course of their journey, initially refuses to carry out the final ritual for fear that he may lose her.

At Xelha's pleading, they complete the prayer and, as she dies in his arms, Xelha confesses that a dream about Kalas crying and clutching someone in a dark forest was what actually spurred her on her journey.

After confessing her love for him, she vanishes into a salty rain, leaving the twice-bereaved Kalas behind.

However, Xelha is revived at the last minute by the great whale, and Kalas embraces her in relief.

The game concludes with Kalas and the cast wishing the Guardian Spirit goodbye at Nekton.
