~ Ilex |
Ilex was a Nomai who grew up on Brittle Hollow and Ember Twin.
Life on Ember Twin[]
In the Sunless City, they played the Anglerfish game with Laevi, Lami, Taget, and Solanum.[1] Ilex was the tallest child out of all of them.[2] Ilex wanted the older children to wear blindfolds in the game to make it more scientifically accurate, as Anglerfish are blind.[3]
Life on Brittle Hollow[]
During the Ash Twin Project's construction, Ilex went to school in the Hanging City.[4] They wrote an essay on why they believed that a new Vessel should be built.[5] Coleus told Ilex that the Nomai used to meet other clans and learned from them, Poke told them about her plans to make an Advanced Warp Core, and Yarrow explained that the Nomai use a lot of resources on the Ash Twin Project.[6][7][8] This led Illex to believe that the Nomai should stop building things to search for the Eye of the Universe and instead build a new Vessel.[8]
Ilex also visited the Old Settlement on Brittle Hollow at some point, where they left a poem about being cautious of the Black Hole at Brittle Hollow's center.[9] Ilex passed away after the Ghost Matter from the Interloper instantly spread throughout the Solar System, which killed all Nomai. It is unclear where Ilex's remains are located.
Trivia[]
- Ilex is another name for the Holly genus of flowering plants.
