Lirael has never felt like a true daughter of the Clayr. Abandoned by her mother, ignorant of her father's identity, Lirael resembles no one else in her large extended family living in the Clayr's glacier.

She no longer wore her librarian's waistcoat, and she had a long Nehima at her side rather than a library-issue dagger.
