Main Characters

Jack is the protagonist of this story. He’s an energetic young boy who was born and raised in Solieu, not too far from Radiata. His father was Cairn Russell, hero and dragon slayer of Radiata. His parents have passed away, and he and his sister, Adele, currently live alone. On his 16th birthday, he tests his strength as a warrior by trying to become a Royal Radiata Knight, just like his father.

The only daughter of the noble Silverlake family, she was raised to become a knight from a young age. She has a stern personality and is stubborn. However, she does have a fragile side and her weakness is her inability to come up with solutions quickly. A tragic event will draw her deep into the conflict of not only Radiata, but of the entire world.

Ganz is the son and heir of the noble family Rothschild and also the son of Gawain Rothschild, who was reputed as the most powerful of the Radiata Knights. Ganz was promoted to captain of the Rose Cochon Brigade after his many years of continued service, not necessarily his accomplishments. His weakness is that he is often too serious and nice.
