Profile

Carole Arna was an employee at Helios Academy, serving as their Advanced Research Director, and friend of Mayor Mayflower. She was also the teacher and foster mother of Belle and Wise. Among her achievements, she created the Hollow Deep Dive System and the Bangboo Eous.

History

After taking Belle and Wise in, she gave them special eye implants connecting directly to their brain, allowing them to uniquely resonate with Eous and the HDD at the cost of lowering their natural Ether aptitude. She and her Bangboo would always be at the academy's entrance to greet her foster children, and she liked to stand to the right of the building's plaque.

On the day that the Old Capital fell, she was abducted by a giant hand after the Academy had been taken under siege by The Exaltists, shortly after saving Wise, Belle, Eous, and the HDD. Because of the nature of her research, she was considered the main culprit behind the tragedy. Carole's disappearance and supposed framing would serve as the motive for Belle and Wise to become Proxies, hoping that once they gained enough observation data, they would be able to learn the truth about the Fall of the Old Capital and clear their teacher's name.

After the battle against Justin Bringer, the siblings tried to get more information about what happened to Carole after the Fall, but to no avail. It was only during the preliminary investigations on observation data anomalies inside Lemnian Hollow that Mayor Mayflower received a photo, which showed Carole surrounded by Miasma. He thus contacted Phaethon and requested them to join Yunkui Summit in investigating the Great Hollow, where the photo had supposedly been taken. The siblings completed the investigation, but no trace of Carole was found. Therefore, they decided to stay in Suibian Temple and plan the next step in investigating their teacher's whereabouts.

After Isolde's death, a Miasma fluctuation resonated with Phaethon, took the form of Carole Arna, and started talking. This shadow of Carole first told Phaethon how proud she was of them and that they now had to walk alone, which appeared to be a memory from when the siblings got separated from her during the Fall of the Old Capital. The shadow then shifted to address an unknown Exaltist, asking what kind of being The Creator was and if the "gate to the final domain" was in Hollow Zero, before agreeing to pave the way for them to meet The Creator, as she too was seeking something that could be found along that path. It is still unknown whether the apparition was just an illusion or if they were memories of Carole herself.
