Ikan

Ikan is the head storyteller of Harun Village.

Ikan is extremely knowledgeable about ancient legends and prophecies, and often tells villagers stories about them. However, he becomes worried and depressed when his son and his grandson, Kaba, go missing at the onset of the Grave Eclipse. After Matthew's party safely rescues them, Ikan is informed of the group by Kaba, who tells Ikan about the Adept's powers. When Matthew's party arrives at Ikan's home, he requests to see this power. Matthew would oblige by using the Move Psynergy on a nearby crate, at which time Ikan was able to see the "light" that Kaba had described, an ability noted to be unusual.

Convinced of the group's abilities, Ikan tells the group of prophecies relating to the Grave Eclipse. In particular, he informs them of the history of Warrior's Hill, which has a treasure that will allow them to find some way to combat the newly unleashed Grave Eclipse. Warrior's Hill had originally been buried beneath the ground, but had risen as the Grave Eclipse began. Ikan gives Matthew the Watchtower Key needed to explore Warrior's Hill and sends the group on their way.

Like his grandson, Kaba, Ikan is somehow able to physically see Psynergy as "Light". Matthew's party notes that it is normally impossible for non-Adepts to see Psynergy. Thus, it is possible that Ikan is an Adept unaware of his abilities. If Ikan is not an Adept, then he possesses a rare ability not previously seen in the series.
