Aaron

A captain of the Knights of the Bloodsword, crown defenders of the Arkdain Kingdom that once spanned the continent's northwest. His predecessor to the post was Roland, who was murdered in 577 C.C. after the War of Camille Hill, along with Richelle, captain of the Knights of the White Lily, personal guard of the king of Arkdain's brother. Suspicions lay on Khanon, lord of Gorhla, but there was no evidence, and Khanon thus managed to gain a great influence over the king of Arkdain. Even though he began to realize the error of the king's ways, Aaron was loyal to his duty as a knight. He fought against the Knights of the White Lily, led by his childhood friend Fraudir in the Arkdain Uprising, a civil war orchestrated by Khanon in his bid for power. In 581 C.C., he faced Fraudir in a duel, but she sheathed her sword in the middle of the fight, reluctant to inflict any more pain on her friend. After her death, Aaron, remorseful, refused treatment for his wounds and passed away quietly.

If Alicia speaks to Aaron after releasing him, he will show hesitation upon asking for news of a member of the party. He does not say who it is, but his tone suggests that he may have more than a friendly interest in them. He also seems to be quite humble and devoted to his duties, but finds it difficult to lead a relatively idle new life after the tumultuous events of his previous existence.
