Regent's Links
Regent likes Socks' curiosity, and her drive to find answers to the old myths about the True Zenith. Still... there's a reason people don't reach the top. She doesn't want her getting hurt. And with all the visions that warn her not to let Socks embark on her journey up the mountain... she's quite stubborn on not letting her go there.
Socks can respect Regent, but she's so...! Ugh. Sometimes, her hard denial to help her reach the True Zenith ticks her off. And yet... her visions... maybe there's something Regent isn't telling her. She wants to find out what's making her so determined to keep Socks off the mountain.
Indi is her adopted child. Regent sees his potential and hopes he chooses to put his developing magic toward the benefit of Winterwick, but she wouldn't be mad if he chose to travel... as long as he kept in contact.
Regent is his mom, and his mentor. She has an enviable amount of control over her magic. It sets a good example that Indi thinks he's following well. There are times where she gets a bit smothering, but he tries not to get too bitter over it. She's still giving him space to be himself.
