Harle is the enigmatic seventh [[Dragon]] | Created in 1006 A.D., Harle is the enigmatic seventh [[Dragon]]. Controlled by the will of the [[Time Devourer]] and housed in Chronopolis, the [[Dragon God]] is tended to by the [[citizen]]s of the city. Her birth occurs during the magnetic storm that temporarily flatlines the power sources of [[Chronopolis]], which allows the Dragon God to create a life form that could go undetected and act as an agent in [[El Nido]]. When created, she bears the resemblance of an eighteen year old girl, dressed in colorful garments resembling those typically worn by clowns. From her inception, Harle is ordered to retrieve the [[Frozen Flame]] and return it to the Dragon God; to this end, she befriends [[Lynx]], feigning obedience to his cause when her loyalties lay elsewhere. In 1015 A.D., she accompanies him to [[Lucca]]'s [[Lucca's House|house]], where they set fire and abduct Lucca in hopes of disengaging the [[Prometheus Circuit]], a protectorate of the illustrious relic. When this effort fails, Harle and Lynx resign to wait for [[Serge]] to cross dimensions and retrieve the Flame for them. | ||
After | Biding until the moment in which she can execute her plan, Harle takes up residence in [[Viper Manor]]'s parlor. Serge finds her sleeping on a sofa, while infiltrating the Manor in search of the Flame. In 1020 A.D., she meets Serge for the first time, flirtatiously teasing him. This act angers [[Kid]], who develops affections for him as well. Soon after, Harle developed an admiration and romantic affection for Serge and shamelessly displays it several times -- even going so far as to warn him against entering [[Fort Dragonia]] to hunt down Lynx. Before this event, she resides on [[Hermit's Hideaway]], having burned the tree-stump cottage of [[Radius]], betrayer of the [[Acacia Dragoon]]s in which Harle serves as both spy for the Dragon God, under the guise of a faithful member. Should Serge seek the man, hoping to find the whereabouts of Lynx, she engages him in battle, fleeing before being seriously wounded. | ||
After Serge adopts Lynx's body through the power of the [[Dragon Tear]], Harle personally helps him exit the [[Temporal Vortex]] and regain his footing in the world, employing several philosophical questions concerning reality to make him ponder the recent turn of events. Harle soon becomes despondent, as any relationship with Serge would be precluded by her mission to retrieve the Frozen Flame. As time continues, this became too painful for her; after the party's visit to the [[Pearly Gates]], she cries aboard the [[S.S. Invincible]], torn between her mission and her now-sincere romantic feelings. | |||
Though [[Starky]] ponders why she is sad, she soon leaves the party, waiting to seize the Frozen Flame. When at last Serge reachs Chronopolis, she reappears to prevent Kid from obtaining the Flame and allow the Dragon God enough time to fuse with the other Dragons and claim it. As the Dragon God arrives, she bids Serge farewell and presumably disappears into the newly reformed monstrosity. | |||
Harle bears a strong resemblance to Kid in facial and physical features. She also shares the same fortune as given by the [[Fortune Teller]] of [[Termina]]. Many attribute this to the fact that if the Dragon God were to create a human being, the closest set of genetics would be [[Schala]] trapped within the Time Devourer. Kid and Harle could thus conceivably come from Schala's genotype. | Harle bears a strong resemblance to Kid in facial and physical features.
