Trained as a healer during her time in Gridania, Scylla struggled with her healer's instincts as they clashed with her desire to strike back against her old rival. However, in the end, she assisted Amon in building the aether transferal device that would eventually carry out the procedure that saved his life.

Amon survived the aether procedure, but at great price. His road to recovery was long as he had to allow natural aether restoration processes take place. The once powerful and proud Allagan Technologist found himself having to rely upon the kindness of others to do the most simple of day-to-day things.

As a result of the near-death experience, Amon swears off his endless struggle to return to the Tower and regain his previous power and status. But turning over a new leaf, even for him, is rarely a clear-cut path.

On top of it all, he's discovered a new sort of unusual feeling for his once hated rival, Scylla. Bearing witness to her selflessness, courage and dedication, he can't help but admire her... or maybe it's something more than merely admiration.

With his natural aether beginning to grow in strenth once more, Amon takes up learning the art of Red Magery. This... turns out to be more complex than he anticipated. His interactions with Scylla also inspired him to seek knowledge on the way of White Magics - though whether this was out of a desire to prove himself to her and win her approval is still unknown.
