Princess Lunette

Signet's mother, a true princess of the naiads, long dead — 'she taught me the meaning of grace and magic' — inked as a sad fish on Signet's wrist the night she died, and left on the ballroom floor as an Incomplete Flesh Golem: a weightless naiad body without a memory, in Carl's inventory for Samantha.

Louis lives on a naiad's heart that will not work outside	B7 ch. 84	open · B8 ch. 99 — He could not go to the Cabaret because his gills need magic; he went into the casino's portal instead and woke in Sheol, where Forkith's leech keeps him alive 'As long as it’s on your skin'; whether the heart works outside the dungeon is untested.
