Kai's mindscape is set in the equivalent of Historic Ellicott City, MD.

Aspects

Sarah's personality aspects, which did not change in gender even after she made her transition, appear as Eskay did during times when each aspect was prominent during his life.

• 5!Eskay
  • Wears a red t-shirt
  • Represents impulsivity

• 10!Eskay
  • Wears a blue, long-sleeved shirt and glasses.
  • Represents kindness as well as loneliness.

• 12!Eskay
  • Wears a dark gray jacket over a lighter gray shirt, as well as glasses.
  • Represents cynicism

• 14!Eskay
  • Appears exactly as he did the night he kissed Psyche in Ilex Forest; see Pika's Character Portrait
  • Represents love

• 15!Eskay
  • Wears a black zipped-up hoodie with a circular, gold emblem on the back. Unlike the rest of Sarah's aspects or her real self, he has gold eyes as well.
  • Represents manipulation, as well as her Heart of Gold.

• 16!Eskay
  • Wears a brown duster coat which completely covers whatever clothes he might have underneath, except for his shoes. Has a bloody sword strapped behind him.
  • Represents regret and Sarah's Old Shames.

• 18!Eskay aka Mezzo!Eskay
  • Is identical to Mezzo in appearance
  • Represents awkwardness, insecurity, and uncertainty, as well as Sarah's transgenderism. Also directly counters Sarah by representing what Eskay can never understand.
  • Is a byproduct of Eskay's body swap with Mezzo
  • Is responsible for Sarah's chocolate cravings.

• 28!Eskay aka The Innovator
  • Appears as Eskay might if he were age 28, as well as still a guy.
  • Represents creativity, what could be, and what could have been.

• Sarah
  • Appears as Sarah did during the course of Unova-2. Is wearing the outfit shown in the 2012 Groupshot.
  • Represents confidence and an alternate view on life as a sort of self-induced sanity check, although surprisingly not Sarah's transgenderism. Also happens to be the reason for Sarah's status as an Unfazed Everygirl, although this is weakened by 18!Eskay's existence.

• Toxicroak!Sarah aka 17!Eskay
  • Appears as a masked, Toxicroak-suited hero-esque version of Sarah.
  • Leads the Fears.
  • Represents Sarah's changed Pokeform, her greatest fear of people including herself becoming what they seek to destroy, and her growing instability.
