"I just want to let you know, you two are like sons to me." - Mendosa

Mendosa (メンドーサ Mendōsa in Japanese) was the former Lord Admiral of the Valuan Armada, seven years prior to the events of the storyline. He is only present in flashbacks in Skies of Arcadia Legends.

History

When Ramirez suffers a crash near the region Mendosa's ship was patrolling, Mendosa has his soldiers retrieve Ramirez and treat his injuries. Ramirez's lack of knowledge of the world surprised both Mendosa and the ship's doctor, but his honesty made him an easy person to talk with and get along with. Mendosa would train Ramirez to be an officer of the Valuan Armada and Ramirez gladly served under his mentor and alongside Doc.

However, this golden age was not meant to hold. Mendosa would be confronted by Ramirez about the slavery and harsh treatment of the Ixa'takans, which Mendosa promises to investigate. This is revealed to be false, however, as Mendosa was the one enslaving the Ixa'takans in the first place and Ramirez eventually finds out. Mendosa reveals his deception and orders his soldiers to put Ramirez under arrest, but even the heartbroken Ramirez proves to be too powerful, easily killing both the soldiers and Mendosa himself and burning their ship. Following the accident, Doc stumbles in upon Ramirez's murder. Ramirez tearfully confesses to Doc that he can no longer trust human beings after this accident.

Legacy

Both of Mendosa's daughters, Maria and Piastol, would be heavily affected by the tragedy that befell their father and became separated after the fire sunk the ship, each believing the other to be dead. Piastol would become the infamous Angel of Death who hunted all air pirates alike, believing the crew of the Albatross to be responsible for her father's death. Maria, though rescued by Doc, would be traumatized into silence, never speaking and ringing a bell to request Doc for necessities, and adopting a hamachou as a pet.

The involvement of Vyse and his crew would later mend the effects of those tragedies. Piastol would realize that she was mistaken about the events that lead to her father's death and would make efforts to try and reconcile with Maria. Maria's heart would open more as her hamachou grew from the moonfish that Vyse fed it, and she would gradually return to her original cheerful self before the accident, making a complete change once her hamachou flies away and Piastol arrives to meet her.
