Noctus Avian

Noctus Avian, also know as the Arm of the Celestial Owl, is a Sacred Gear wielded by Kazuto Hayashi. It holds the spirit of the Celestial Owl, Nyx.

Summary
Nyx was originally a simple owl hatchling who got separated from her nest-mates when she fell out of the tree they resided in. She was found by the Greek Goddess Athena, who was heartbroken when she found the starving hatchling of her favorite bird. She took pity on the poor creature and nursed it back to health, finding a good friend in the healed owlet and named her Nyx, after the primordial Goddess of Darkness, as she thought it went well with the black feathers. As time went by, Nyx started to grow old. Not wanting to lose her closest friend, Athena blessed the owl with immortality, inadvertantly causing many strange, but not unwelcome, changes.. Nyx grew to to a height of 3 metres, gained power she had never imagined, and developed intelligence and wisdom on par with that of Athena, whom she started to refer to as 'Mother.' Millenia passed, and Nyx and Athena were happy with their lives. Until one day, whilst out on a flight, Nyx was caught in the crossfire of the Red and White Dragons' fight, sustaining a substantial injury. She just was just barely able to make it back to Athena, who did everything she could to help her surrogate daughter. Sadly, even Apollo, the God of Healing and Medicine, was unable to save the dying Owl. In an effort to save Nyx's soul from leaving the world, Athena sealed Nyx's soul in a Sacred Gear, where it remains to this day.
