Kayla-La

The grandmother of Edmund and Dimitri, Kayla-La was the scientist who discovered that the White Comet would impact Echidnaopolis. With her husband Jordann, Kayla-La managed to devise a method to lift Echidnaopolis and part of the surrounding landscape into the sky with 12 Chaos Emeralds, thus making them the founders of the Floating Island.

Their names appeared in early issues as "Jor-Dann" and "Kayla" before the cultural naming pattern was decided upon, and were retconned afterward.
