Mist Angst, the Protagonist
The Non-Essential Amulet?
. . .
Yes, I've heard of it. In fact, after a full year of searching, I've finally got all fifteen shards. I was just about to go see Gannongast and give them to him.
. . .
Well, I guess I don't really need his white wine vinaigrette, now that I think about it. It's a pretty paltry reward for such a long and arduous quest, anyway. What I really want is a Really Big Tiny House -- that'd be useful, because then my entire party can rest and restore all of our hit points at once, even in the middle of a battle.
. . .
The only guy I knew who had one had amnesia, and he couldn't remember exactly where he got it. He just remembered a blast of frigid air, and some guy who had a carrot instead of a nose. I just figured he'd been hit on the head one time too many.
After obtaining the really big tiny house:
Ah, sweet! Truly, this Really Big Tiny House will provide comfortable HP-regeneration facilities for my entire party. Here are all fifteen shards of the Non-Essential Amulet.
. . .
Now that I have completed my quest, I can finally settle down on a farm somewhere, with only the spirits of the past to keep me company. That is, until I get hit on the head, get amnesia, wash up on a desert island somewhere, and start a new quest. I can't wait!

References
- This character's name references Cloud Strife, from Final Fantasy VII, one of the main influences for the Protagonist monster in the Penultimate Fantasy Airship.
- ". . ." is a line often used by Squall Leonhart, the protagonist of Final Fantasy VIII.
- Getting amnesia and washing up on a desert island is a convenient way that some RPGs (that are part of a series with a recurring protagonist) use to explain how the character is no longer the level they needed to be to kill the antagonist last time (they've forgotten how to fight), and no longer has any items they picked up along the way. (Or at least a reference to Final Fantasy VI where something similar happens.) This game is similar in that manner.
- The name "Gannongast" could be a reference to Ganondorf, the main antagonist in the Legend of Zelda games.
