Changes

Kolea had a hard time finding his heart again after the experiences he had during the Zoican Invasion, despite the best efforts of his scratch-company colleagues and [[Colonel]] [[Corbec]]. Kolea remained withdrawn and uncommunicative for almost a year, performing his duties perfectly, but hardly showing any emotion. Colonel Corbec eventually decided to twin Kolea’s platoon with Sergeant [[Ceglan Varl|Varl’s]]. Shortly, as Corbec had hoped, the garrulous and witty Sgt. Varl finally managed to get Kolea to laugh, and the two quickly became fast friends. Kolea also formed a connection to [[Medic|Surgeon]] [[Ana Curth]] around this time, and found that he could speak to her with honesty due to her understanding nature and Hippocratic oath. She tried to convince Kolea to reveal himself to his family, but before he could act further on the matter, Sgt. Kolea received a serious head-wound during the [[Phantine]] Campaign that effectively destroyed his personality; he suffered severe brain-damage and was reduced to the mental age of a pre-teen. Kept on the strength of the regiment, Kolea served as a standard Guardsman until the [[Herodor]] campaign, where he was apparently completely healed by the [[Beati]]. Kolea then reconciled his situation with Tona Criid. Criid, who had been looking after the children for several years by this point, would continue to do so. The children would apparently not be told their real father was alive. It seems however, that Dalin may now in fact know that Kolea is his biological father, but the topic still appears largely taboo.
