Those who live on the floating islands have learned to project wings from their backs. Because the wings are projections of the soul, their appearance varies from person to person. Thoran briefly mentions that Wiseman was the one who taught humans how to project their Wings of the Heart, a thousand years before the games take place, linking them to the same timeless power as Magnus. It shoud also be noted that the Children of the Earth have never been seen to have used their wings, as they seem to prefer floating as a way of improving their magic.
