Kennith

**Kennith** is a character in *Ties of Fate*.

## Summary

Kennith was born in the village of Incendia with his brother Aiden. They befriend Morpheus and Theia, who they often hang out with. Kennith comes to possess the sword Sin, which is capable of communicating with him. He flees the village after it is frozen over, but Aiden is unable to flee and is frozen along with it. Kennith swears to one day revive Incendia and save his brother. He goes on to serve as a temporary Guardian in the Harmony Kingdom. He eventually attains full Guardian status and marries Theia, having three children with her. He initially intends to pass the title as leader of the Guardians to his eldest son Garret, but the latter passes on the title. Due to this, he assigns it to his daughter Reina instead.

When Diamond rebels against the Harmony Kingdom, starting a war as revenge for his banishment, Kennith works with Morpheus, Calder, and the Guardians to fight against his army of Guardian Mimics. During this, Kennith's youngest son Blake is assigned status as a temporary Guardian. As his skill level is just right, Kennith passes Sin onto him. Kennith later aids in strategizing an attack on Diamond's kingdom, and when Mimic Topaz returns from the battle with intent to change his ways, Kennith convinces Morpheus to let him join them.

On Reina's birthday, Kennith throws a celebration and gives her a new violin, which he made himself. However, the party is interrupted by an attack from Diamond's soldiers. Citrine attempts to shoot Reina with poisoned arrows, but Kennith gets in the way, causing himself to be fatally struck. In his final moments, he makes Reina promise to save Incendia, then he dies in front of her.
