When Khione was young he always dreamt of people with white hair and cerulean blue eyes. All of them having a curse around their neck and died before they could even reach the age of 30.
The oldest was a 27 years old woman, who died after using all of the remaining flames she had protecting her dearest friend despite of her injuries and her friends protest.
On the other hand, the youngest that he had dreamt so far was 14, the poor girl died sacrificing herself in order to revived an ungrateful sky because it was her duty. Khione hated that sky, and wished that he suffered a terrible fate after his revival.
When he told his father about his dreams, he hugged him and repeatedly apologized to Khione, much to his confusion.

He was too young and innocent back then. He never knew what was the purpose of the pacifier tied around his neck nor does the involvement of his Father. All he knew back then was he looks kinda like the people in his dreams.
Khione was 10 when he learned that the dreams he's been having as a kid were memories of his predecessors, the Snow Arcobaleno. He also learned from Wonomichi that his Father was also called, Checkerface, and was the reason why the current arcobaleno were cursed into being infants.
He didn't hate his Father for that. He pity him instead. After all, he was forced to witness his unwilling younger and only brother, Ilgar, turned into an arcobaleno
((-No not Ilgar! Please don't do this to him!-)) by orders of the elders as punishment for something that his brother didn't do (( "-He's innocent! Stop this please!-")) and lose him at the age of 25, too young even for their species standards (("-Nononono! Ilgar stay with me please!-")) and now his second son, who resembles both his brother and his first son greatly that it is quiet disturbing, was born with too much flame for his sickly body to handle, causing his health to deteriorate faster that the doctors expected Khione not to live past his 7th birthday. And the only way for his son to live longer is to condemn him to the curse that killed his brother.
((Kawahira has no choice. He wanted to see Khione grow up and have a happy life, but his 'sickness' will kill him before he even have a chance. Between that and the curse, Kawahira chosed the curse instead.
He wanted Khione to live a little longer. He lost his brother, his first and second wife, his friends, his best friend, his people and his firstborn. He doesn't want to lose Khione this early.
Placing the transparent pacifier on the unconcious Khione's chest, Kawahira turned him into the next Snow Arcobaleno.))
Khione doesn't hate him. He pities his father, because his Father will live a very long life watching everyone he loves and holds dear die before him.
In 20 years time, his Father will once again bury somebody he loves. All because he was weak and the only thing that prolongs his life was the curse that started his Father's suffering.
