He was the aloof boy-next-door from your childhood, and that reserved nature has carried into adulthood. When he speaks, he speaks with seriousness and measured words. Many islanders mistake his reserved nature for grumpiness, but he is simply shy and deeply absorbed in his botanical research.14141515He can come across as cold and distant at first, but beneath that stoic exterior exists a deeply thoughtful soul. His kindness manifests practically: he observes neighbors' agricultural problems, meticulously documents the issues, and resolves them quietly without being asked. For Graminova, actions will always speak louder than words.16161717Background18181919Graminova was the province's highest scorer on the university entrance exams and pursued agricultural studies at age 18.

He follows in his father Sagewood's footsteps as an agricultural expert.20202121His only significant leisure activity involves unwinding at home before bed by listening to classical music.
