"To me, you are a wonderful person."

Kyle is a reincarnated human and former forest spirit of Eldoh. He is a disciple of Elluka Clockworker, helping her collect the Seven Deadly Sins, and a close friend of Gast. He succeeds Eldoh as the Millennium Tree.

Early Life
About 528 years before EC 0, the god Eldoh created the forest spirits of Eldoh's Forest, including Kyle. Forbidden from leaving the forest by the deity, Kyle obeyed. At some point, the forest spirit met Elluka Clockworker and the two became familiar with each other. In EC 001, Michaela, using her robin form, witnessed Eve Moonlit commit the Original Sin, seeing her crying with the infant Hänsel and Gretel in her arms.

Forest Encounter
Around the turn of the fifth century EC, Michaela learned much about the humans living in the area from the nearby village ,and Pant, a woodcutter. In early EC 499, Michaela, along with Gumillia, saw the sleeping Eldoh being attacked by his old friend, Elluka. After Gumillia threw a fruit at the sorceress, the spirit chastised her for "bullying" the god while in her animal form. Soon after, the sorceress left and the robin flew to her shoulder, asking if it was a good idea for a mage to be there and expressing her fascination with humans.

With Eldoh asleep, Michaela decided to gather some trauben from a orchard by the Lake of Amusement. After tasting the fruit, the spirit began to fly back when a black bird attacked. Painfully grasped by the large bird, Michaela dropped the fruit in the robin's claws and was freed. Bleeding from the wing, the forest spirit spiraled down and fell to the ground, knocked unconcious. Soon after, the robin was rescued by Clarith and she took Michaela home to treat the bird's broken wing. Awoken on a table, the forest spirit tried to escape before noticing her bandages. At that moment, Clarith's mother carrying a box entered and redid the bandages, apologizing to the bird for how poorly down they were.

Clarith returned right after and, curious, Michaela took the chance to look inside the box, disgusted by the worms inside. Refusing to eat them, Clarith gave the spirit some trauben she picked and the robin gladly ate it. After Clarith and her mother argued about her work, she left and the woman resigned to feeding Michaela more trauben, asking she please forgive her; she then explained that Clarith was the one who saved her. Over the course of two weeks, the white-haired girl fed Michaela and spoke to her everyday of her bad work experiences. At some point, she built the robin a badly-made bird cage and, grateful for her dedication, Michaela used it. Sat near the window each day, the robin watched Clarith work and saw how she only smiled when at home.

The following day, Michaela heard a sound and realized someone was throwing stones at the window. In the form of a chipmunk, Gumilla climbed up and squeezed through the broken window, urging Michaela to escape after opening the cage. Revealing she knew about spirits, Clarith's mother explained that she had been a sorceress and told the spirit about the Netsuma tribe's discrimnation and Clarith's cruel circumstances, much to Michaela's confusion. Michaela thanked the woman and accepted her gifts of trauben before leaving, wishing the spirit could thank Clarith for her kindness.

Upon her return, Michaela was greeted by Eldoh's roar and the god lectured the spirit for breaking his regulations. The next day, she cried and was comforted by Gumillia. Although trying to justify her situation, Gumillia lectured her for leaving in the first place and not understanding that she could have died. After apologizing to Gumillia, and Eldoh the next day, Michaela saw Clarith approach the Millennium Tree and hear her despair of being alone once her mother was gone, begging to have a friend.

Reincarnation
''This section is currently undergoing revision. We apologize for this inconvenience. ''

A few days later, Michaela consulted Eldoh on the matter, since the god had been sleeping during Clarith's visit. While the god forbid her from interfering with the affairs of humans, Elluka arrived and interrupted their conversation. Agreeing to help the sorceress with her mission to gather the Seven Deadly Sins, the deity offered Gumillia and Michaela to assist her in finding one of the sin fragments as reincarnated humans, with Michaela as Elluka's tracker. Surprised, Michaela was told the spirit had three years to learn about humans while helping Elluka. The three traveled West through the forest in search of a good place to perform the ritual. On their journey, Elluka told Michaela to not be afraid of becoming a human and follow instinct.

Once the ritual site was prepared, Elluka told the two of them to imagine beautiful women from Elphegort, preferably those who weren’t currently alive. Michaela discussed the names with Gumillia and they agreed on whose appearance they would have. Imagining the visage of Eve Moonlit, Michaela reincarnated as a human in her image. The sorceress then took the two humans to an abandoned house, using it as a shelter from the rain where they could study magic and the basics of being human. One day, Michaela woke Elluka up early, hurrying the sorceress to eat breakfast outside with them. Staring at her face, the sorceress told Michaela how a woman's charm was in her eyes and that she should remember to wash her face from time to time.

Clarith happened to find Michaela in the forest when she collapsed due to a fever and brought her to back to her home. When the village mayor threatened to evict Clarith and her mother from their home since they haven't paid their rent, Michaela offered to pay the rent with the money Elluka gave her and asked if she could stay here for a while.

All of the townsfolk adored Michaela due to her wonderful personality, but she was distraught about how Clarith is discriminated by the rest of the village due to her white hair. When Clarith's stepmother died, Michaela suggested that she and Clarith leave Yatski Village and told her that she is the nicest person she had ever met. Clarith, with renewed happiness, wholeheartedly agreed.

Michaela and Clarith left Yatski Village to start a new life in Aceid, capital of Elphegort. There, the two of them begun working for Keel Freesis, head of the trading guild. One day, Kyle Marlon paid a visit to the Freesis household and he fell in love with Michaela, giving her a shell pendant to prove his love for her. Michaela took it, believing that it was just a friendly gesture. Kyle did admit his betrothal to Riliane Lucifen d'Autriche and when he asked Michaela about the possibility of "leaving everything behind" and running away with her, Michaela was shocked.

One day, Michaela was in town, singing and there she met Allen Avadonia. Allen too fell in love with her, but Michaela did admit to herself that she couldn't return those feelings. Allen delivered to Michaela a spring onion from Gumillia which is revealed to have the power to communicate to other people, notably Elluka and Gumillia.

News traveled fast about Kyle Marlon's supposed "affair" with Michaela to Riliane, prompting Riliane to spark the invasion of Elphegort known as the "Green Hunting". Elluka and Gumillia attempted to persuade Michaela to leave indefinitely, but Michaela refused to leave her human friends behind and revealed to them that she intends to live as a human pernamently. Michaela and Clarith then fled into the forest, pursued by the Lucifenian army. Michaela didn't want to abandon Clarith but she was forced to when she was unwittingly slipped sleeping pills earlier. She was then delivered to a shelter under a well. Allen finds Michaela and promises to help her escape once the coast is clear. Unfortunately, Michaela was stabbed by Ney Futapie, who was disguised as Allen. In her last moments, she wished for Clarith to be safe. Michaela died, not before seeing Allen one last time.

However, death didn't come by so easily, for Michaela's spirit transformed into a tree sapling and she was recovered by Elluka Clockworker and Gumillia. The two of them revealed Michaela's identity to Clarith and asked her to take care of Michaela until she matures, for she has been chosen to be Eldoh's successor. Michaela then appears in her spirit form and says her final goodbyes to Clarith, not before saying, "I love you". Michaela was finally planted in Eldoh's Forest by Clarith and Riliane.

Praeludium of Red
When Kyle attacked Yukina Freesis, Gumillia, and Germaine, Eldoh persuades Michaela to help. Michaela feels doubtful, since she has lost her human body. However, Eldoh tells Michaela that she doesn't need a body or a voice; what matters is her heart. Determined to save everyone, Michaela sung a song that helped to incapacitate Kyle and return him to normal. Kyle's shell pendant, which is identical to the one that Michaela used to wear, had shone brightly that night.

Aftermath
From the ashes of old, Michaela quickly grew up into the new millenial tree, succeeding Eldoh as the guardian of the forest and forever loved by the inhabitants of Elphegort. Michaela's life afterwards is unclear until the last years of Evillious. Evil's Theater did not go unnoticed by Michaela due to it's corrupting influence on the forest. The theater inhabitants have taken precaution that Michaela may intervene since she can directly influence the theater.

Personality and Traits
Michaela is a kind, friendly, and curious person, fascinated with human behavior and everyday life. As a result of her curiosity, she could sometimes act disobedient. Similarly, she found many actions and habits of humans odd and had little understanding of many human emotions, such as romantic affection or love. Because she was originally a forest spirit, Michaela looked down upon the rash and emotional actions of humans, although later succumbing to such behavior herself. Due to her time spent as a human with Clarith, she grows to understand these feelings and behaviors, learning to love, hate, and feel jealousy.

Skills and Abilities
As a forest spirit, Michaela was immortal, able to heal from any wound almost instantly while in Eldoh's Forest. Similarly, she could freely transform into an animal, usually a green robin. After becoming a human, she became vulnerable to death but relatively quick to learn human habits and customs. As a mage, Michaela is not as adept as Gumillia but learned the necessary spell songs as she searched for the sin fragments. Among the songs she learned was the Clockwork Lullaby, used to track the Sins, and Recollective Musicbox, to communicate their location to Elluka. Despite this, she did not understand the songs themselves as Elluka never taught her their meaning.

Michaela is skilled at labor and was quite capable at her menial tasks as a maid. Having a naturally melodious voice and talent for singing, Keel refined Michaela's technique with tutors before having her perform. Because of her amazing singing voice, she became a popular idol to the people of Elphegort. She was also illiterate due to Elluka's belief that she would learn along the way, which became impossible for her as a peasant farmer in Yatski.
