Lord Helio

 In construction 

"Ichabod Crane, the symptom of success is showing inside my project of bringing the Feast of Apollo, with the risk of everyone could become wizards themselves and the Order shall take the world... a calculated risk that I would gladly accept. I helped you because you never interfered my plan, but now, since you crossed me... I am afraid it won't be lucky that much. Bring me Zoe... and the Stone of Wisdom right now!"

- Lord Helio (as the White Wizard) to Ichabod Crane while revealing his true nature "Have you forgotten already? In my world, the color red doesn't exist. These must be... my tears. Do you remember what I told you, Crane? The only time a soldier can cry is when it's all over. I think it's all over for me, but still I can't give up. It was for Zoe... no, Hestia... for my dear daughter."

- Lord Helio wept blood after being defeated Lord Helio, born Carmichael Clearness and also known as Father of Flourish, the White Wizard, the Light Lord and Wised Wiseman, was the founder and former leader of the Order of Flourish, being the master of Hestia Hawthorn, Selina Strawberry, Phyllis Peach, Helene Hawthorn and later Order Rookie Mages like Kristen Kiwifruit.

He serves as the protagonist of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow Spin-Off - Prophecy of the Light Lord, a supporting character of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow Spin-Off - Order of Strawberry, and the (former) main antagonist in LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow - Harvest Saga. However, Lord Helio is in fact the Disc One Final Boss of Harvest Saga. Later, Phyllis took over his role as the main antagonist.

First appearing as the White Wizard, Lord Helio shows himself as an engmatic, white-robed magician that gave Ichabod some help during his confrontation against the Spirits of Killers. He also somethimes oversees Ichabod's journey from a distance. Later, he was revealed to also be the Light Lord, the equally mysterious leader of the Order of Flourish that ran everything within Sleepy Hollow. The Order takes no course of actions without his permissions.

In the past, Lord Helio was a comrade-at-arms of Ichabod Crane named Carmichael Clearness, who was rumored to be killed in war. Instead, Carmichael survived and worked with Katrina Crane and Karnivan Van Tassel together in order to seek out the mastermind behind the Horseman of Death, who was, unknown to Carmichael, Lady Van Tassel. However, Lord Helio later fell into a trap set by Ara Astaroth who worked with Moloch in a temporarily partnership. Both Ara and Melancholia turned Carmichael into the Light Lord, but he tried to resist their control and escaped from the evil forces, being hunted by Ara and the Qliphoth demons.

After the seemly death of Ichabod Crane in 1781, Carmichael determined to carry on Ichabod's legacy. He named himself Lord Helio and used a false ailas in order to hid his true status. He took over Sleepy Hollow secretly, and throughout the later 231 years, he developed his followers and built the Order of Flourish piece by piece, in order to start a ritual named the Feast of Apollo which he believed it was serving for greater good.

However, he had later sucubbed to his dark side once again and became a puppet of Moloch, a fact that was completely oblivious to most of his followers save for one; Phyllis Peach. After losing his first adoptive daughter, Hestia, Lord Helio went completely insane and tried to perform the Second Feast of Apollo using his adoptive daughter's reincarnation, Zoe Benson, and the Stone of Wisdom containing the soul of Hestia, in order to bring Hestia back to life.

Feast of Apollo
The Feast of Apollo was a ritual performed by the Lord Helio on the day of a solar eclipse. The ritual involved the gathering of many Shines, humans with magical potential, which were forced into deep despair until they were granted hope by Lord Helio, becoming the Mages of Flourish.

One of the Shines who was sacrificed was Calvin Riggs, a journalist, but he survived thanks to the promise he made as a child to his parents, when they were on their deathbed after a car accident, to keep happiness alive in his heart. He rejected becoming a Mage of the Order in order live in normal life. In the aftermath of the first ritual, Calvin was attacked by a Phantom but was saved by the White Wizard, who entrusted Zoe Benson, who was thought to be another survivor from the ritual but lost her memories, to the journalist while giving him the route to Sleepy Hollow, where his brothers lived and worked.

Several months later, Lord Helio reveals that in order to execute the Feast of Apollow on a non-solar eclipse day, he must gather vast amounts of mana which are emitted by Supreme Croats transformed via Mages and Shines. Also, the Feast's true purpose was not in creating more Mages but rather the action itself causes the creation of more Mages as a side effect.

After Lord Helio's identity was revealed to be Carmichael Clearness, aka the White Wizard, he continues to kidnap more wizards and Shines, even Katrina and Cynthia Irving in order to recreate the Feast of Apollo. As stated earlier however, the purpose of the Ais not creating Phantoms, it is for Fueki to fully revive his daughter Helene, who died of an unknown reason before the first Sabbath, through the Stone of Wisdom. Through the birth of Mages, large amounts of magic are released, Helio then feeds this magic into his daughter in the hopes of reviving her. Therefore, due to the failure of the first Feast, Helio recalculated his research and planned a second, much larger Feast, one that would use everyone in Sleepy Hollow.

Then, Selina Strawberry finds out that would turn all potential Shines into Croats while also killing everyone else, so she tells Pandora to stop Helio, betraying him due to seeing errors of his ways at last. Pandora arrived where the White Wizard is and fought him, however he is too powerful for the witch. As Pandora is about to be finished, she steals White Wizard's Hamel Cane, which she stabs the lock of Chimera, freeing it. Chimera flies over Sleepy Hollow consuming the mana which stops the Feast.
