Biography
The Lost Continent Prophecy
After Snowfall unknowingly attacks Crystal, Gharial charges onto Snowfall to protect her. Snowfall attacks him back, severely injuring him with the help of the gift of strength. When Crystal rushes in to check on Gharial, Snowfall figured how the whole reason Crystal disappeared from the Ice Kingdom is because of Gharial. Crystal merely wanted to spend time with her loved one, not break an oath to her mother, Glacier, to kill Snowfall.
Gharial is mentioned several times later on in the book when Snowfall remembers how Crystal left the kingdom not because she presumably wanted to assassinate her, but because of her love of Gharial the MudWing.
Snowfall gave Crystal her permission to marry Gharial if she wanted to. Although Crystal was a little snippy about Snowfall's wording, she was deeply grateful for Snowfall's approval.
