| ==Her Mother's Wounds==
| | One of the Unterzee's most ferocious Zee-beasts, the creature known as Mt. Nomad is a gigantic, purple mountain floating in the most northerly reaches of the Zee, near the mysterious [[Avid Horizon]]. Her mother is definitely the Zee-god [[Gods of the Unterzee|Stone]]; her father is the Thief-of-Faces, the first [[Snuffers|Snuffer]]. It is rumored that [[The Fathomking's Hold|the Fathomking]] is her uncle (on her father's side), as he unleashes Storm's Curse on those who bring her heart as a trophy. |

| One of the Unterzee's most ferocious zee-beasts, Mt Nomad is a gigantic, purple mountain floating in the most northerly reaches of the zee, near the mysterious [[Avid Horizon]]. Her mother is the zee-god [[Stone]], making her the granddaughter of the [[Echo Bazaar]];<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Just_one|Just one|Fallen London|}} ''"We don't choose our memories, though we might wish we could. Here is recorded the name of Mount Nomad, grand-daughter of the Bazaar. She will not rest in peace. May she roam the Zee in silence."''</ref> her father is the Thief-of-Faces, the first [[Snuffers|Snuffer]].
| | Mt. Nomad may also be connected to the Lifebergs that drift near her in the Void's Approach. It is unknown what these creatures are or what connection they have to the far more fearsome Mt. Nomad, but they share some connection to the Void beyond. Perhaps they all share a father, or perhaps she is their mother, but of course we cannot ask either party for the truth. |

| == A Living Weapon ==

| <blockquote>''"The Mountain cast us all out of the Garden, when it found that our progenitor had taken jewels from its wombs, to make a weapon to serve its hatred. I will tell you of the weapon it made."''</blockquote><blockquote>''"And you see the black glass shadow on the green glass of the zee. You hear its groaning hunger, and the death of the ships it breaks. You see its father the Thief-of-Faces, coming and going, dwelling in it for a time like a maggot in a peach."''</blockquote>Long ago, the Thief-of-Faces, the first [[Snuffer]], stole jewels from Stone's wombs<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Flint|Flint|Fallen London|}} ''"The Mountain cast us all out of the Garden, when it found that our progenitor had taken jewels from its wombs, to make a weapon to serve its hatred. I will tell you of the weapon it made."''</ref> and used them to create Mt Nomad, a weapon to "serve its hatred." In case you can't already tell from the rampaging glass mountain, the Thief hates ''a lot'' of things.
