Frozen Roses (unpublished)
The following material is drawn from Frozen Roses, an unpublished story concerning the second generation of characters. It will be published at a later date. Events here belong to the manuscript's chronology and may depict younger stages than the later profiles elsewhere on this page.
Childhood and training
Nijel returns from time in Kingdom Plane older than the infant his relatives had recently known. He learns healing alongside his Morning Star training. His preferred way of moving is often flight rather than walking, which strengthens his wings; when younger, he holds Hestor's braid to stay close while airborne.
He is playful with Sarah Pradesh, even when interrupting her determined focus on technology. His growing friendship with Connor Drayke includes shared family time, ordinary treats, and mutual affection. The story follows that friendship during childhood rather than assigning the later relationship to the earliest scenes.
