Lantis

Lantis (ランティス Rantisu?), Zagato's younger brother, is a powerful Cail or Kailu (Magic Swordsman) who journeyed abroad for a great deal of time and returned to Cephiro after his brother's death, making his first appearance in season two. Initially, he was regarded with a mixture of suspicion and fear due to his reclusive nature, but it was eventually revealed that he had a heart of gold: he helps to protect the innocent citizens of Cephiro, demonstrates a genuine love of nature and innocent young children, and even forgives Hikaru and the other Knights for Zagato's death. The reason for his return was also unveiled: he wished to destroy the Pillar System in order to prevent the tragedy and pain that Zagato and Princess Emeraude had experienced from happening again. Ultimately, not only was his goal met (though he did not accomplish it himself personally), but he also came to build a powerful bond of romantic love and absolute faith with Hikaru, the Magic Knight of Fire.
