Detail | Information |
|---|---|
Name | Ales |
Relation | Nephew of Kapan |
Notable Trait | Repaired the robot Moka |
Outlook | Wary of Animon and the Lumen following the loss of his parents in an accident |
Ales carries a personal grief: he lost his parents in an accident and afterward came to disdain Animon and the Lumen. That outlook sets him apart in a world built around catching and bonding with creatures, and it shapes how he relates to Trey and the others. He was fostered by his uncle Kapan after the loss.
Ales lost his parents in an accident before the start of the story and was fostered by his uncle Dr. Kapan. That loss shapes both his initial wariness around outsiders and his deep attachment to Moka, the robot he repaired after finding her broken in the same Scarlet Woods clearing where Trey is later discovered.
Over the course of Trey's first arc in town, the cool reception toward Trey softens. The two boys take their first steps as a Lumen team together, and Moka comes along as a quiet third presence at their side.

Moka is a robotic companion that Ales found broken in the Scarlet Woods, the same forest where Trey was discovered, and brought back into working order. Despite being a machine, Moka expresses emotions through LED strips, a charming touch that fits the game’s heartfelt tone.
