| ~ Lami |
Lami was a Nomai who grew up on Brittle Hollow and Ember Twin. Their sibling was Laevi and their aunt was Pye.[1][2]
Early life[]
Lami played the Anglerfish game in the Sunless City with Laevi, Taget, Ilex, and Solanum. Lami was still small enough to climb through the hole at the Anglerfish Overlook to give the fossil a new lantern.[3] When Laevi wanted to add a rule that the child who played the anglerfish had to wear a blindfold, Lami thought the game was too hard if they could not see anything.[4] Ilex eventually updated this rule so that the younger children did not have to wear a blindfold.[5]
Lami went to school in the Hanging City, where they wrote an explanation of the Nomai's festivals.[6]
Statue Workshop[]
When the Ash Twin Project began, Lami, Laevi, and Taget moved to the Statue Workshop on Giant's Deep, where Phlox was creating the memory statues. Phlox told them not to come inside during a test of the statues, but Lami wanted to sneak in through the other entrance.[7] However, Taget and Laevi told Lami that they should not do this as the risk is too high.[8]
When the Ghost Matter from the Interloper instantly flooded the solar system, Lami passed away along with all other Nomai.
Trivia[]
