- — Prince Narwhal's farewell to Winter before the Diamond Trial
Template:Infobox Character Prince Narwhal is a male IceWing and a character featured in Winter Turning. He is the father of Winter, Icicle, and Hailstorm, as well as husband to Tundra and brother to Queen Glacier. He seems to be trusted with the kingdom, as Glacier put him in charge while she was in the rainforest.
Biography
In the prologue, Winter mentions Narwhal to Hailstorm when saying how he will be furious that the two are in SkyWing territory.
In a flashback, Narwhal, Tundra, Winter, Icicle, Hailstorm, three attendants, and one of Winter's uncles were all a part of a hunting party for the table of Glacier herself. As Winter is distracted during the hunt while a mother polar bear and her cubs are in clear sight, Narwhal wings out of the sky with his wife and brother. When Winter fails to catch the bear, he furiously roars at his son, demanding to know how he could have let the bear get away.
Later, when Winter and Hailstorm return to the Ice Kingdom, he announces that Hailstorm has returned and surprisingly puts Hailstorm at the bottom of the Seventh Circle, and even more surprisingly puts Winter at the top of the First Circle. This was a well executed plan that made sure that Hailstorm would do the Diamond Trial and either way they would have a dragonet in the first circle.
Quotes
- “Ssso. My two sons have returned to me. One I thought could
never come back—the other I hoped never would.” –To Winter and Hailstorm.
