eiya’s family took kane in after his mother died, so they were raised as siblings. they have had to watch as kane was raised to be the province ruler. they cannot bring themself to understand why kane is so devoted to his so-called destiny, and all of her concerns seem to fall on deaf ears. even though she loves their brother dearly, she can't help the sparks of bitterness in her heart.

aven is childhood friends with kane, eiya, and river. he has a tendency to people please and desperately tries to avoid and/or mend any possible tension or conflict that arises in their friend group. he's not a great mediator, and being put in that such a situation stresses him out to no end. he can be very "if i cant see it, its not there" minded, in that he'll convince themself that nothing is wrong if it doesnt seem like it on the outside. other than that, aven is very interested in traveling and geography in general. he likes to study in the library with river on most days.
