## The Lost Fairy

When Jakob was 8 years old, his parents were killed when the city of Victoria swapped with the fairy realm Avalon. Jakob was extremely shaken up upon learning that he wouldn't be returning home and would be all alone, but soon he heard the voice of his unborn twin Jesse speak to him, Jesse said that he would keep Jakob company when no one else could. Jakob and Jesse spoke with each other for a while and Jesse took control of Jakob's left arm. The twins then formed a pact, swearing that they would enact their retribution upon the fairies one day. When forming this pact, each held a burden, Jakob being consumed by rage, and Jesse by sadness.

Many years later, The Cascadian Alliance (better known as the "Hellhounds") was formed as a military alliance against fairies, and started their brutal genocide against the faerie inhabitants of Avalon, Jakob was a part of this alliance and Jesse of course was too. Jakob never showed any mercy towads the fairies, and relentlessly tried to find the last remaining citizen in Avalon, the fairy Symbel. The tired fairy almost gave up after constantly running from the Cascadian Hellhounds, but Jane came to save her. Jakob and his allies chases frantically to find the two, and are met inside the building where a lavish party took place, behind the door of the cellar Jane and Symbel hid in. Han-Mi, the narrator of the story says that Jakob and his unit didn't think to cellar after an old man claimed that no one went inside the cellar, but Jakob refuses to listen, and proceeds towards the cellar anyway. Han-Mi keeps on trying to stop them to no avail, which is when Raven and Lloyd advise her to come up with a different solution.

The next time we see the twins is when they make their way towards Xandoria and have a conversation. Jakob asks Jesse how he puts up with never-ending sadness, to which Jesse responds that it feels almost like downing and that he wonders why they divided their emotions like this, Jesse than suggests laying the genocide to rest and says that it has served its purpose, to which Jakob refuses, saying his life is incomplete until the last fairy is seen dead. Jakob then spots Jane and the fairy and shoot a bullet through Jane's wing, piercing it, Han-Mi then saves the girl and the fairy with the help of Raven.

The last time Jakob and Jesse are seen is when they corner Jane in the mattress store Marcus' Mattresses. Jakob starts to brutalize Jane before Han-Mi changes the narrative to have Jesse tell Jakob to reflect for a second, pointing out that their confronting children who mean no harm towards them, and that they have became monsters. Jakob refuses to listen, and outraged at his twins sudden betrayal of his promise to keep him from being alone he cuts off his left arm, killing Jesse. Jakob than proceeds to beat Jane bloody, however, Han-Mi inserts herself into the narrative and threatens Jakob, finishing him by slitting his throat.

## Personality

Jakob is consumed entirely by rage, he shows no remorse towards the fairies despite the fact that they caused him no harm directly, he doesn't regret his actions whatsoever and seems to almost relish in murdering the fairies

Jesse on the other hand, seems to show more remorse, being consumed by sadness, telling Jakob to consider stopping his pursuit of the fairies as it's a pointless vendetta.

## Trivia

* Paul has confirmed that Jakob and Jesse's parent's are alive in the fae city of Avalon after it and Victoria magically swapped and are doing perfectly well
	+ This means that Jakob's genocide is completely unnecessary.
