国崎 往人

A young traveler on a journey to find the meaning in a story his mother left him. A story about a girl who has been all alone in the skies for years. He is able to move puppets without actually touching them, using a magic called "Houjutsu". He lives with Haruko and Misuzu during his stay in their hometown. After finding out Misuzu is connected to the girl his mother was talking about, he fears that both him and her will perish together, just like in his mother's story. He initially chooses to leave Misuzu behind for her own safety, only to go back on his decision and promise her that he'll always be by her side. He later passes away, reincarnating as Sora during the Air arc.
