| The '''Carnelian Exile''' is a mysterious nomad<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Grand_Geode#Interactions|Engage an Officer: the Carnelian Exile|Sunless Sea}} ''"A dark-spectacled woman marches up to you, [...] I am no longer welcome here... and I will show you where we need to go.""''</ref> who speaks laconically and has an irksome habit of answering others' questions before they can finish asking.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Character_description|Character description|Sunless Sea}} ''"She has the discomfiting - even irritating - habit of answering your questions just before you finish speaking."''</ref><ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Increase your Mirrors|Sunless Sea}} ''"She says little, but each word is placed like a pin in a map."''</ref> She was exiled from her home at [[Port Carnelian]] for joining the [[New Sequence]], and she later severed all ties to the [[Dawn Machine]] as well.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Bread and Salt|Sunless Sea}} ''""I am persona non grata in Port Carnelian," the Exile remarks. "I was too close to the New Sequence, and the Machine. I have repented of that now, but I'll never go home.""''</ref> She still has the characteristic bright golden eyes of the Machine's followers, however, so she keeps them concealed with dark sunglasses.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Invite her to dine with you|Sunless Sea}} ''"She removes her glasses, [...] Her own eyes are marvellously bright.

| The Exile is a strong believer in predestination and destiny:<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|"The zee is wide, but I'll always return home."|Sunless Sea}} ''""Destiny is destiny," she says softly."''</ref> she believes neither she nor her path may change, and seeks a state of being where she has "no choice at all."<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Invite her to dine with you|Sunless Sea}} ''""I am always the same, do you see? I do not change. I proceed on the same path I always have. I am only one choice: and I will be content only when I have no choice at all.""''</ref> To this end, she wants to one day travel to the [[The Uttermost East|Uttermost East]].<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Bread and Salt|Sunless Sea}} ''""Salt's Song," [...] Will you go East, my captain? Will you take me with you?""''</ref> Unfortunately, though she has heard the way East through [[Salt|Salt's]] song,<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlesssea.miraheze.org/wiki/Carnelian_Exile#Speak_to_the_Carnelian_Exile|Bread and Salt|Sunless Sea}} ''""Salt's Song," [...] "I hear it on the wind.

Not any more."
