History[]
Aaron was in charge of a patient boy named Will Auceptin. Once when he was visiting and playing Tarot Cards with the boy, Aaron drew a reversed Wheel of Fortune. The boy interpreted that his luck will be worse.[3] Before the boy left the hospital, he gave a Paper Crane to Aaron.[4]
Later, Aaron found himself being always unlucky and had a nightmare over months. He asked Sherlock for advice about this matter, and Klein suggested him to go to the cathedral and tell the bishop.[3] His problem was solved after he followed Klein's suggestion.[5]
| “ | Sherlock, I’ve always felt that you weren’t very pious in your belief of the God of Steam and Machinery. Why don’t you change your faith? Look at me, a perfect example. Put your faith in the Goddess! |

Afterward, Aaron hired Sherlock to visit the boy in North Borough and found his family had already moved away.[6] At night, Aaron had a nightmare about the boy in a pitch-black steeple, hunted by a giant snake.[4]
Klein secretly investigated by stealing the paper crane for divination and entering Aaron's dream to find out about the nightmare.[4][7]
Aaron came to Sherlock's door as he dreamed about the boy in the Grimm Cemetery. He hired Sherlock to protect him while he paid a visit to the area outside Grimm Cemetery. There they found Will Auceptin's corpse in the same place in his dream.[8]
Later on, Aaron told Sherlock that his wife got pregnant, and Klein figured out that the boy, Will Auceptin, had been reborn as Aaron's son.[9] Ever since his wife became pregnant, Aaron found his luck had become rather good. His business was improving by the day, and his income was rising by the month.[10]
His career had improved by the day. Now, he owned a private hospital that provided medical services to high society.[1]
