Darien
disciplined
conflicted
loyal
grief-stricken
adaptable
Darien commands the vessel with precise professionalism, his loyalty tested when Queen Xanxia implants cybernetic control through a neural interface. The manipulation forces him to enforce her decrees despite his internal resistance, revealing a suppressed defiance beneath his disciplined exterior. His grief at Mister Fibuli's death redirects his purpose—transforming from a functionary executing orders into a committed adversary of Xanxia's tyranny. The shift crystallizes during the engine room sabotage, when explosions render him unconscious and later when he kneels beside Fibuli’s body to lift his spectacles in a gesture of sorrow and renewed resolve.
