Overview
Kira is a Varnhallow divine mage, the former patriarch of Lysaraine, and a trusted patriarch in Thalion's Order. She pilots skyships and steers fleet maneuvers from the helm during the Siege of Rimvold, the Jazarel Battle, and Thalion's pursuit of Raphael and Eremion during the Fall of Malverand. After Thalion leaves, Kira and Frederick accompany Helena through Haverloch and Ulzathir while Helena destroys surviving Malverand books and scripts.
Appearance
Kira has blue eyes and long blond hair. By her later Rimvold service, her hair is streaked with white and her face has new lines of age. Near the end of her life, her hair is nearly white and her face is wrinkled.
Abilities
Kira is a divine mage suited to shielding and battlefield enchantment. She and Frederick are both divine mages, and Kira places golden enchantments on Helena during the journey from Haverloch toward Ulzathir.
Her main practical skill is skyship command. She handles route changes, formation control, and battlefield stabilization from the helm.
History
Kira is the patriarch of Lysaraine when Eira, Kaelion, and Jin search Varnhallow for a way to reach Eltaru. She grants them a meeting but cannot lead them to Eltaru, and she has no knowledge of the Order at that time. Michael later assigns Kira elsewhere, and Jin takes responsibility for Lysaraine.
Kira serves in Thalion's forces in Rimvold. She loads crates, docks smaller skyships onto a larger vessel, and pilots missions where speed and secrecy matter. During the Jazarel Battle, she steers the ship carrying Helena, Zero, Theia, Jarin, and others while they operate under the cover of being Jeremiah's forces. She keeps the ship clear of the worst attacks, halts when Uriandel's ships stop, lifts the craft over electrified water, and steers away as essence streams gather over Jazarel.
During Thalion's pursuit of Raphael and Eremion in the Fall of Malverand, Kira pilots the cosmic blue flagship from Thalion's fleet. She follows enemy fleets, tracks movements, fights to stabilize the vessel during shockwaves, and shifts formations as Thalion's plans change. When Thalion sends Helena away from the final fight against Raphael and Eremion, he entrusts Kira with taking her first through Haverloch and then to Ulzathir.
Kira obeys Thalion's order despite Helena's grief. She takes Helena back to Rimvold for a few days, then leaves with her and Frederick. Kira and Frederick are from Varnhallow, and the nation was renamed during their stay. She and Frederick continue with Helena to Ishtanûr, where the three quietly destroy the few remaining Malverand books and scripts they find.
Kira and Frederick remain with Helena for years in Ulzathir. Kira and Frederick are a pair who mostly kept their relationship private, and Thalion knew this when he assigned them both to Helena. In old age, Frederick chooses to overload his essence and return to the world as luminous particles. A few days later, Kira ends her life the same way while Helena remains with her.
Relationships
Kira is loyal to Thalion and regards the Order as a family. Frederick is her long-term pair and shares her final mission of caring for Helena. Helena becomes Kira's charge after Thalion leaves, and Kira stays with her until the end of Kira's life. Jin succeeds Kira in Lysaraine after Michael assigns her elsewhere.
