Kay

One of Arthur's sons and most trusted soldiers. Resembles a blue rabbit with eye shield in the "Happy Land" simulation and primarily serves as a sentry or sounding board. Has a scar over his right eye.
At Arthur's party, Kay detects that Tessa is an outsider and goes over the rules... or, rule: "Give us shit, and we'll slap yours!" Otherwise, he admits her and tells her to have fun. This perplexes Tessa, who expects a G-rated experience from her "dream." He later tries to stop her from getting on stage when Harry is knighted, until Arthur says to let her through. He does hesitantly, and not until after she bites him.
Kay watches the tower where the Old Man lurks, and he is greeted by a distance attack that destroys his eye shield despite the firewall. Arthur detects the attack and checks on Kay, but Kay brushes it off as nothing. He further reports that the Old Man is doing nothing. Literally nothing. Kay is baffled by the lack of attacks, which Arthur supposes means he knows of a flaw in their defences. Kay guesses the simulation is the weak point, while Arthur counters that the simulation is a quarantined sandbox isolated from the main network.
Kay then theorises that the Old Man will attack the plant with the simulation as the target, pointing out that Arthur's version of the Simulation is a sanctuary rather than a brutal test. Arthur asks if the old way was better, threatening the "children" with death if they didn't live up to expectations, but Kay retorts that Arthur's kindness means the same children are going to remain innocent forever, until they lose their innocence once thrown into battle. Arthur makes a decision on how to proceed, based on Kay's comments, but Kay notes that the "original plan" is still viable. Arthur immediately rejects it as not viable, as he can no longer let his pawns die.
