Al, the youngest sibling of Rin and Mel, grows up in a remote frontier village under the guidance of their grandfather, Talgia Hawkray. While incapable of harnessing the song-based magic innate to his sisters, he channels his intellect into engineering tactical gadgets, including star bombs—palm-sized explosives that erupt in dazzling hues of light and smoke to disorient foes and shield allies. Driven by a desire to prove his inventions’ worth, he joins Rin’s journey to the capital, steadfastly supporting her with unwavering loyalty. Though privately grappling with grief, he masks his struggles behind humor and optimism, determined to bolster Rin’s resolve during her moments of guilt or despair.

After their village’s annihilation and the deaths of Mel and Talgia, Al withdraws to apprentice under the reclusive engineer Dr. Weissen, honing his craft in solitude. Years later, he reemerges wielding a jet-powered harness fused with echo-tech, intervening decisively in a pivotal battle to save Rin from certain defeat. Partnering with the strategist Henry Leobolt, he unleashes an enhanced arsenal to dismantle the tyrant Bazra’s forces.

Al’s evolution from a resourceful sibling reliant on familial ties to a self-sufficient innovator reflects his resilience. His bonds with both family and mentors underscore his duality: a non-magical tactician whose ingenuity bridges the gap between devotion to kin and the pursuit of self-defined purpose.
