Excerpt from the Lore Keeper's Journal:
She does not arrive - she appears. Already seated, already small. Wings wrapped so tightly around her frame they seem like part of her clothing, not something meant for flight. I almost mistook her for a Nestling at first - until she looked up. Her eyes are oceans of withheld expression. The kind that measure a room before daring to speak. She offers help before names, gifts before connection, apologies before mistakes. Nervina is a creature shaped by vigilance - not out of fear of danger, but fear of being 'too much' to keep. She keeps herself folded, muted, useful. I believe her wings are stunning beneath that dull cloak, but she will not show them. Not yet. Maybe never. I suspect they shimmer like hidden grief - beautiful, but painful in the light.
