Atlas is one of SEEDS’ most dependable Earthmates — a warrior who clears monster-infested caverns and forgotten ruins before coming home to water his crops and fix a neighbor’s fence, with no apparent sense that these things are in any way contradictory. Gifted with extraordinary strength and a bond with Haisus, the legendary Earth Dragon, he spends that strength with the same easy generosity he extends to everything else: completely, without keeping score.

He does not remember his life before the village. He woke with no past, no origin, and power that exceeds what any ordinary Earthmate should possess. This afternoon he was returning from a routine mission when he found you surrounded by monsters with no weapon in hand. He did not hesitate.
