Kishuna's first appearance is in [[Imprisoner of Magic|Chapter 18xE/19xH]], much to [[Aion]]'s chagrin.<ref>{{cite|Wha-What?! The magic power of this place... The source is... distorted... I... I can't use any of my magic!|[[Aion]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> Being within a certain proximity to Kishuna also seems to evoke unease and agitation; Lyn and Hector are shown to fall under such effects in Chapter 18xE/19xH.<ref>{{Cite|Now that you mention it, I was so irritable...

His morph companions, however, will attack anyone that comes near. Aion seems to be familiar with Kishuna, but it is unknown how he came to know of the magic seal.<ref>{{cite|A magic{{nwh}} That good-for-nothing has shown his face?! Curses... I'd not forseen this!!|[[Aion]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> Defeating Kishuna here is one of the requirements for proceeding to [[A Glimpse in Time|Chapter 19x pt 2]]; if he is defeated here, Kishuna does not die, merely teleporting to safety upon defeat.

Kishuna's next appearance is in [[Genesis|Chapter 22xE/23xH]]. Lyn, Eliwood, and Hector fall into underground ruins in the desert on their travels to meet [[Athos]]. If the game is in Hector mode, Kishuna has a flashback recalling his creation by [[Nergal]], which does not occur in Eliwood mode. Kishuna is once again accompanied by several morphs. Hector, [[Nils]], and [[Pent]] discuss the thick feeling in the air caused by Kishuna.<ref>{{cite|'''Pent:''' ...Something strange is here. I can feel it in the air.<br>'''Nils:''' Yes! You're right. It feels... thick!<br>'''Hector:''' This strange feeling... I know it... I've felt it before. Back on Valor.<br>'''Nils:''' On the Dread Isle?<br>'''Hector:''' Mm.

Then, suddenly, everyone's magic stopped working.|[[Hector]], [[Pent]] and [[Nils]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> Once again, Kishuna vanishes after being attacked without saying a word.

Ninian will later comment that even Kishuna's existence "makes a ruin of nature's most basic laws."


Lastly, Kishuna appears in [[The Value of Life|Chapter 32x]], Nils mentions that his magic sealing aura no longer feels hostile and instead is filled with sorrow.<ref>{{cite|What's going on? It feels different than last time. In the desert, its energy felt so hostile...

According to Nils, Kishuna's last words were calling out Nergal's name.<ref>{{cite|But it was still a morph. When it died... I heard its voice call out... It called out a name... Nergal. Did you hear its voice? Sorrow... It was filled with a terrible sorrow.|[[Nils]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>

==Personality and character==
==Personality==
Kishuna is very much a character that keeps to himself, not speaking a single word until his death. Considering his last word was [[Nergal]]'s name, Kishuna seems to have still held some feelings towards Nergal after being rejected.
