The King of the Air Kingdom, Kalpi’s grandfather and the Mechanical Sage’s closest admirer.
Kushagra usurped the throne from his father many decades ago, in a bloody feud within the palace. His reign transformed the country, both within the palace and outside it, for the better. However, he meets his descendants with an air of disdain and disappointment, for none of them have what it takes to lead the country through the Wars raging outside. Thus he sought out immortality and regained his youth once again.
That being said, many believe that he favours his granddaughter Kalpi over the rest.
Kushagra tells her that she reminds him of his father who was slaughtered by him enough times for her to wonder whether it’s really fondness that he has for her and not morbid curiosity instead.
