Ino Drazhin

Ino Drazhin is the younger daughter of Sheveän Drazharan and Nemolis Drazhar, and the younger sister of Idra Drazhar and Mireän Drazhin.

Appearance
When Maia Drazhar first visited Ino in the Alcethmeret nursery, she was "red-eyed and rather blotchy."

When Maia visited Ino on Winternight, Ino was in her nightclothes, with her hair braided down her back, and she was crying.

Personality
Ino seemed to be a little shy, as her elder sister often spoke for both of them.

Life
Ino was the second daughter and third child of Sheveän and Nemolis, and the third grandchild of Varenechibel IV.

Suler Zhavanin was assigned to look after Mireän and Ino.

On the Winternight before The Goblin Emperor, Ino and her siblings went to visit their maternal grandparents, Zharo Rohetharan and Idra Rohethar. Their grandfather showed them a little of puppies, and said that the mother dog liked Ino.

Nemolis traveled to Amalo for the wedding of Orchenis Clunethar and Uleviän Clunetharan. On the return trip to the Court, a bomb placed by Curneisei co-conspirators in the Tethimadeise Conspiracy destroyed the Wisdom of Choharo, killing all its passengers, including Nemolis. Maia inherited Varenechibel IV's throne, and Idra became Maia's heir, taking Nemolis' former title as Prince of the Untheileneise Court. Ino attended Maia's coronation, and gave Maia her oath.

Sheveän and Lord Chancellor Uleris Chavar had Maia kidnapped and brought to them to sign his abdication papers, in favor of Idra becoming emperor. After Maia was rescued, Maia had Idra and his sisters moved to the Alcethmeret, where they waited anxiously in the nursery. Idra held his sisters' hands when Maia met with them to try and calm them. When Maia asked what he could do to make them more comfortable, Idra asked if they could have more of their household, principally Idra's tutor, Leilis Athmaza, and his sisters' nursery maid, Suler. Ino and her sister supported bringing in Suler, whom they clearly loved.

At Csevet Aisava's suggestion, Maia invited Ino and her siblings to breakfast with him on Maia's 19th birthday. Ino asked Maia about goblins, noting (without realizing it) that Dinan Cambeshin, one of her playmates, had bigoted views about goblins. When Ino explained that she didn't like Dinan, but that her mother made her be friends with Dinan, Maia explained that Ino was "not obliged to be friends with anyone thou likest not".

After Eshevis Tethimar attempted to assassinate Maia, the commotion made Idra send Leilis to see what was happening, and Maia's apparent absence made Ino and her siblings distraught. Maia went to them, and reassured them he was alive and well. Mireän was the first to hug Maia, and Ino followed suit, and began to cry harder. Maia encouraged them to try to sleep, and when Ino asked if he'd come back, Maia promised to have visits with them.

After Maia decided to relegate Sheveän to Bakhoree, he brought a map to Ino and her siblings to show them where Bakhoree was. Ino asked if ogres would come out of the mountains and eat Sheveän, and Maia reassured her they were not, and that Sheveän had soldiers "to protect her."

Dinan Cambeshin
Sheveän was friends with one of Dinan's parents, and said that Ino and Dinan had to be friends. Ino didn't like her.

Idra Drazhar
Idra was a good brother to Ino.

Maia Drazhar
Ino cared for Maia after she came to reside in the Alcethmeret.

Mireän Drazhin
Ino seemed to be close with Mireän.

Nemolis Drazhar
Ino grieved for her father.

Sheveän Drazharan
Sheveän told Ino that goblins were going to take over with Maia on the throne.

Suler Zhavanin
Ino loved Suler, and Suler clearly cared for Ino.

Varenechibel IV
Ino grieved for her grandfather, though he did not care for her as much as Idra, as Ino was a girl.

Trivia

 * Ino is less than 14 years old.
 * In certain copies of The Goblin Emperor, Ino and her sister are listed as having the last name "Drazhar" in their father's glossary entry, which is a name for boys and men, rather than "Drazhin", which is a name for unmarried girls and women. This appears to be a typo, as Ino and her sister are listed after idra, who actually has the last name "Drazhar".
