Mereli

Dame Mereli is the leader of the Night Guard and accompanied the questing party to The Airways in Champion Batticus.

Champion Batticus
Mereli was first seen in Barley Village while preparing for the Spring Welcoming Festival. It is later realized that she saved Atticus from the house fire. She later appeared shortly after Atticus disappeared while waiting to see his brother. Shortly afterwards she interrogated Atticus on what he knew about the raiders who attacked Barley Village and convinced him to tell King Kyron the information directly. She took him to the Royal Palace and sat with him in line while they waiting their turn.

Mereli introduced Atticus to three of her friends - Osprey, Gerald, and Scara - and shared some of her food with Atticus. When they were told Kyron would not be seeing any more visitors, Mereli convinced Bianca to let them through to catch up with him. After catching up to King Kyron and speaking with him, Mereli let him off at the hospital, though they met again when Atticus went to see Hephaestus while she was visiting her ex-team mate who was also in the ICU. Mereli was next seen while the questing group was planning their expedition to The Airways.

When Mereli met with the refugees before laving the Castle she was very distant towards Osprey and laughed at the jokes Magnus made at his expense. Mereli was not seen often during the first day of travel. When it was revealed that Trylon would be traveling with them, she was very happy. She ate with the others and tried to convince Osprey to see his family while they were in Steadfall. She seemed unhappy with Osprey's insults towards Atticus, but didn't speak up. When they have their next meeting with Ru Relding she is distant and leaves quickly afterwards. She was later heard arguing with Osprey and afterwards Atticus comforted her and asked her to tell him a story, to which she told him about the time she visited Sequoia Sanctuary.

Atticus
Mereli first treats Atticus quite a bit like a child, but she eventually starts to treat him more like a friend. She is very friendly towards him and pushes him to become a knight and improve himself

Trylon
Trylon is Mereli's father figure, as he was one of the scholars who raised her.

Osprey
Mereli first appears to be in a happy relationship with Osprey, but problems become more evident as times go on. She avoids holding his hand when the refugees are getting ready to leave The Castle and avoids smiling and laughing while Magnus is making banter. She is appalled when Osprey is needlessly cruel towards Atticus, is distant for the rest of the day, and then gets into an argument with him later that evening.
