Role[]
Awin is a balloon-mechanic who assists Escha and Logy with their work, such as taking part in their investigations and helping with building a mighty airship called the Dreadnought to reach the Unexplored Ruins. He is the first party member outside of Escha and Logy to join the group. His character quests first starts with him and his job as a engineer doing various jobs around Colseit, but later shift to his ambition to build the Dreadnought.
Later in the game, both Escha and Logy find Awin researching a place called the "Edge of the World"; a place that according to legends, is where the world ends. Beyond that is a green paradise where glowing flower bloom awaits. Eventually, he manages to find a book containing the reports of the Expedition Corps in charge of finding the Edge of the World. Though baffled by the "major failure" the report talks about, the group decides to use the information left behind to lead them to a new location called the Ends of the Earth. After traveling far enough to the west, the group finally reaches the Ends of the End, where the supposed paradise is found. But instead, they find a sea of clouds beyond a rocky cliff, leaving Awin confused until he spots something on the ground. After picking it up, Awin finds out it's an old notebook belonging to the Expedition Corps and begins to read it. They soon find out that the "major failure" they spoke of was not being able to find the paradise in order to make sure the sacrifices they made were not in vain and that since so many hopes and dreams were resting upon them, the captain decided to lie about not finding the Edge of the World cause he was too ashamed to let everyone know about they really found there and at least wanted be remembered as heroes by those who had fallen. After Awin finishes reading, Logy suggests that they should keep this a secret since the news of Expedition Corps' true last report would end up causing chaos and decides to leave the note where it is cause "it feels like the note belongs here" and returns back to Corseit with a quiet Awin. After returning, Escha and Logy decides to check up on Awin to see if he's alright. He tells them that he's alright and that even though he was a bit disappointed about not finding the paradise at the Edge of the World, Awin still believes that the paradise spoken in the legends still exists somewhere beyond the sea of clouds and plans to build a ship of his own to continue where the Expedition Corps left off: Searching for the legendary green paradise somewhere in the dusk sky.
He has his own character ending, and there is both an Escha and Logy version of his ending.
