Aubest Meletes, a mage of the Factory Alliance, commands authority as both its Mage Leader and trusted advisor to Margrave Marrine Kreische. He serves as adoptive father to Siluca Meletes, rescuing her from persecution sparked by her rare ability to wield Chaos. Though he harbors genuine care for her, his unwavering devotion to duty and rigid prioritization of political obligations over kinship fueled her isolation within the Mage Academy. This neglect nearly cost Siluca her life repeatedly, necessitating rescues by allies like Aishela and the academy’s principal.

His steadfast allegiance to the Factory Alliance’s goals repeatedly clashed with Siluca’s aspirations, especially in wartime scenarios where fractured negotiations or tactical demands threatened to pit them against each other in combat. These conflicts laid bare the relentless friction between his institutional loyalties and personal ties.

As Marrine’s confidant, Aubest influenced the Alliance’s policies and battle strategies, though specifics of his methods remain undocumented. His bond with Siluca endured as a fraught tapestry of protective intent and cold pragmatism, shaped by the ruthless political landscape they navigated.
