Description
Noelle Ardelade is a fourteen-year-old girl from the island of Ivory. She is introduced as a candidate for the position known as the 15-year princess, a contest linked to the Ishtarian monarchy. Noelle's background is rooted in her home island, where her grandfather serves as the caretaker of the island's iconic clock tower. After a storm damages the tower, the island lacks the necessary funds for repairs, which becomes a central motivation for Noelle.
In terms of personality, Noelle is presented as bright and positive, though she also carries a shy demeanor. She enjoys singing and demonstrates this talent by busking in the capital to raise money for the clock tower. Her companion is a small monkey named Kiki, which suggests a gentle and caring nature.
Noelle's role in the story is that of a protected figure. She is assigned to Cloud 7 agents Jack Hofner and Rowe Rickenbacker by Commander Camille Freed, who tasks them with securing her safety and keeping her away from media attention. Initially, the mission seems straightforward, but it soon becomes entangled in a larger web of corruption, bombings, and murder involving powerful figures in Ishtar. Noelle's connection to the Ivorystone trade and the Ishtarian monarchy makes her a target, and her protection becomes a catalyst for uncovering a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power.
Key relationships in the series revolve around her protectors, Jack and Rowe, who are the top agents of Cloud 7. They are assigned to escort her back to Ivory but later become involved in a black operation that fakes her assassination in front of a live televised audience. This staged death allows the agents to arrest Duke Regent Rand and DTI Chairman Taylor for their involvement in the assassination of Prince Sparda. Throughout these events, Noelle's relationship with Jack and Rowe is that of a charge to her guardians, though she also shows independence by returning to the city to fundraise after being deposited at the railway station.
Noelle's development is marked by her transition from a hopeful candidate for the 15-year princess to a presumed deceased civilian. After the staged assassination, she continues her life out of the public eye. Her character embodies innocence and determination, serving as the moral center around which the story's intrigue revolves. Notable abilities include her singing, which she actively uses to achieve her goal of repairing the clock tower. She does not possess combat skills or special training, relying instead on the protection of Cloud 7 and her own resourcefulness.
