Both Knox and Aster hail from Horologa, the heart of faith in Hloris. While Knox takes pride in that shared origin, Aster despises it- he’s among the crowd that finds Knox totally insufferable.

Kind, positive, and completely overbearing- Knox values community spirit above all else, and will drop everything at a moment’s notice to lend a helping hand to his fellow man… whether or not it was asked for.

A devout follower of the Ascended, Knox is a model believer in a village that uses its church as a storage shed. Even if no one around him shares in his ideals, Knox’s faith- and optimism- is unwavering.

When it comes to the title of ‘main character’, Haiyan would insist she’s the last person fit for that role. A jack-of-all-trades with no standout abilities, ‘unremarkable’ really would be the best word to describe her.

Of her neighbours, Haiyan’s particularly attached to Deanna- someone who’s been like an older sister to her ever since the two were children. She’s also good friends with Knox, as a fellow optimist in trying times.

Haiyan is adaptable, agreeable, and relentlessly cheery- she’s good at connecting and making friends with just about anyone. In a community full of difficult personalities, this makes her very popular!

Live in the present -> Remember another past

👁️ Delphinium’s story spans over just a month of time, but captures moments from the last two decades of Haiyan’s life- some of these moments told from other perspectives entirely.

A nation suffering in the aftermath of a failed revolution. A wounded land that has yet to begin healing.

Many are seeking escape from what the world has become. Out here, you’ve found it.

Delphinium takes place in a small, nameless village located in the north-eastern mountain ranges of the nation Hloris. With its location unmarked on any map and a population consisting of just nine people, the village’s existence is so obscure it’s yet to even be considered myth.
