| ===Background===
| | ===''Trials of Mana''=== |
| Heath is the son of [[Belgar]], Oracle of Shadows, who officiated along with the [[Priest of Light]] in [[Wendel (Trials of Mana)|Wendel]]. Born and raised in the [[Temple of Light]], he grew to saw his father fall to the evil forces consuming him as he sought to cure a sick girl in vain. This sparked an obsession in his mind to cheat death, but his new dark powers were in vain, since he couldn't save the girl in the end. His use of the forbidden arts was rejected by the Temple of Light, ultimately leading the Priest of Light to banish him from the Holy City. The head of the temple took the young Heath under his wing as he grew up to become a apprentice priest himself and the captain of the Wendellan guard. He befriended the adoptive daughter of the Priest of Light named [[Charlotte]] who quickly looked up to him.

|
| During [[Charlotte's opening gambit]], Heath is tasked by the Priest of Light to investigate the strange [[Faerie (character)|light]] phenomenon in [[Astoria]]. Believing there is also trouble brewing in the nearby town of [[Jadd (Trials of Mana)|Jadd]], the Priest of Light tell Heath he will erect a magical barrier at the entrance of [[Cascade Cavern]] to prevent intruders coming in. Charlotte, who we spying being a pillar, overhears this, and immediately devise a plan to go after Heath to prevent the young priest from being harmed. She eventually succeeds, and finds Heath in the middle of [[Rabite Forest]] being surrounded by beastmen. Heath learns the Ferolian guards are here to invade Wendel as Charlotte runs toward them trying to protect the young priest. He defeats the guards with a [[Holy Bolt]], but is almost immediately hit in turn by dark magic cast by a weird [[Goremand|jester]]. The mysterious man, impressed by his magical feat, brings the unconscious lad to his master's lair in the Mirage Palace. Heath regains consciousness and learns that the [[Masked Mage]] running the show is none other than his father who now covets to eradicate human life from [[Fa'Diel]] and become their overlord. Heath tries to persuade him not to pursue his plans, but he was ultimately corrupted into the [[Tainted Soul (Trials of Mana)|Tainted Soul]].
| |
|
| |
| Eventually, the portal leading to the [[Sanctuary of Mana (Trials of Mana)|Sanctuary of Mana]] is opened, and the competing enemy factions of the world head over the holyland to gain the allmighty power of the [[Mana Sword|Sword of Mana]]. What follows next depends on who is the main character of the story:
| |
|
| |
| * If [[Duran]] or [[Angela]] is the main character, the [[Dragon Lord]]'s faction kills the Masked Mage, breaking the mind-controlling spell on Heath, leaving dazed and possibly wandering lost inside the Mirage Palace.
| |
| * If [[Kevin]] or [[Charlotte]] is the main character, the Masked Mage succeeds in killing the Dragon Lord and destroying the remains of the [[Prince of Mavolia|Dark Majesty]].
| |
| * If [[Hawkeye]] or [[Riesz]] is the main character, the [[Prince of Mavolia]]'s faction kills the Masked Mage, breaking the mind-controlling spell on Heath, leaving dazed and possibly wandering lost inside the Mirage Palace.
| |
|
| |
| Provided the main character in Kevin or Charlotte, Goremand kidnaps [[Faerie (character)|Faerie]] while the chosen retrieves the holy blade, and uses her as an exchange for the Sword. The deal is made in [[Lowenburg]] capital of Ferolia. The evil jester tries to wield the Sword at first, but its holy powers are no match for him to withstand. The Tainted Soul corrupts the sword with his dark magic, turning the blade into reflecting the heart of its new owner. He then adds that he once followed his Eminence's teachings, but he could not save the world from pain, hence his defection toward the dark side. The both of them head back to Mirage Palace to use the Sword to free the Benevodons inside each Mana Stone and give them to their master.
| |
|
| |
| The party finally defeat all the [[Benevodons]] and meets with the Masked Mage at the deepest end of the Mirage Palace, claiming he will absorb the sword's power combined with the Benevodons' to become an immortal soul stronger than the Goddess of Mana herself. As he drains the holy blade, a surge of light within him notifies him of the goddess still being alive. He then vows to destroy her once and for all and rushes to the Sanctuary of Mana. The heroes are forced to deal with the Tainted Soul who, upon defeat, reveals himself to be the son of the Masked Mage and begs the party to stop his father before doom ensnares the world.

| |
| In the epilogue of Charlotte's story, Heath has been revived by the Mana Goddess and happily reunites with the young half-elf in the Temple of Light.
