Story arc

Episode II

While not seen, Heinlein is mentioned in several conversations within Episode II. During Margulis' first conversation with Sergius, Sergius speculates that Heinlein has manipulated the Federation military's upper ranks to influence the Federation's offensive against Second Miltia. When the party makes its way into Labyrinthos and investigates the data being held by Canaan, it is determined that the U-TIC Organization is being supported by a corporation called Hyams, which is led by Heinlein. After Sergius takes ahold of the Zohar and Proto Omega, establishing the Ω System, he is betrayed by Margulis and Heinlein, who seizes control of Ormus.

Episode III

Heinlein calls back Margulis during the skirmish at Gedalya Space over the Floating Landmass, claiming that he got what Ormus came for. In a meeting between him and Margulis, Heinlein claims that Ω Res Novae has returned to its rightful master, puzzling Margulis, knowing that Ω once belongs to Ormus before Heinlein talks him down, claiming it is god's will. Eventually at the climax of the game, after Margulis's suborned dedication to the beliefs of Ormus pushed him, he reveals his true identity as Wilhelm. There he reveals that Ormus's goal of returning to Lost Jerusalem is all a lie, and everything that they've done is all for naught.

Database

Episode III

Heinlein

Hyams Corporation representative and Ormus cardinal.

Hyams Corporation representative and Ormus cardinal. Responsible for technological research and development and securing funds, he is the second most influential member of Ormus, after Sergius XVII. Despite this, he has never shown himself in public; even Margulis and his men have never seen him directly.

Many, including Margulis, sympathize with Heinlein’s wish for a return to Lost Jerusalem through Ormus, and give him their loyalty. After the death of Sergius XVII, he assumes control of Ormus and moves to take back Ormus’s holy land, Michtam.

His true identity is Wilhelm, who owned and operated both Vector and Hyams. The development of a Vector-manufactured E.S. at Labyrinthos was all part of Wilhelm’s plan.
