Aldebaran

**Aldebaran** is a powerful Time master and a Divine Servant of Libra.

## Story

### A Man's Regrets

Aldebaran was raised in Constiel's region of Zigurath as a mage-warrior of the Hekmah tribe. His genius as a mage quickly allowed him to go up in the ranks of Zigurath's administration, eventually becoming the headmaster and lead general of the city. However, his country was then attacked by the forces of the Dareus empire. Aldebaran defeated them, but the price was his own tribe, something he could not accept.

Aldebaran then used his tremendous learning abilities to master Temporal Mastery High Magic and go back in time. However, no matter how many times he tried, he could not prevent the army from destroying either Zigurath or the Hekmah tribe. In the end, tired of trying, he gave up and was submerged by the army. He thus was resurrected as a Divine Servant.

### Hero of Libra

Aldebaran's first Divine Servant war opposed him to Krishna and Aiden Hawke; he repeatedly attempted to kill the both of them, respecting Krishna's wish not to target her master Jude Nomos. Eventually, he attempted to quickly eliminate Krishna by isolating her and using his full power to destroy her, but Jude's bond with Krishna allowed them to perform a miracle and defeat Aldebaran.

His next summoning was by Hina Harumageddon who found his Key, thanks to Lily Evershire's interference. Hina went back in time and helped Aldebaran with breaking through his temporal dilemma, saving his tribe and academy in a heroic endeavor. Aldebaran then left, swearing to help Hina - unknowing that Hina's mother Ruine Harumageddon took advantage of the temporal distortion to awaken as a Divine Servant as well.

### Fulfilling a Promise

With honor, Aldebaran helped Hina, among others saving her Future Child Sora Dawne. He was later sent to save Lumia and Xelina Harumageddon - the latter being an alternate version of Hina, with whom he quickly fell in love. Together, the three overpowered Ruine and proved to be instrumental in defeating Ruine in that Timeline, Aldebaran later staying with Lumia and Xelina.

## Appearance

Aldebaran is a dark-skinned, silver-haired man with bright purple eyes, the result of exposure to the Temporal Mastery magic. He dresses in strange, dark clothes, similar to a battle-mage's armor, but integrated to his body.

## Personality

Aldebaran is stern, pragmatic and somewhat grumpy. Although he can be very charismatic, most of the time he is not talkative and thinks that actions are worth more than words. He also has a tendency to act based on pure reason, always taking the optimal path.

He is not however without emotions - his desperation to save his family and students caused him to travel over a hundred timelines to find the perfect end, and despite acting gruff and indifferent about it, Hina's help resulted in him devoting himself to help her across Timelines as a way to thank her.
