Despite the chaos that reigns above her, Mindle works calmly and diligently;

>//You approach Mindle as she trims a low hedge along the inner garden wall. She is surprisingly calm, given the events unfolding in the [[sabek_palace|palace]] around her. In fact, she seems happy to see you.// - Eye of Ulos (RPA-ADV4) 

If your repute with the [[king_s_guard|King's Guard]] is high enough, she will trust you with the motivations of [[taron|Taron]] and her own trust in fate;

>//“Fear not the doors to other worlds. They are part of what makes us who we are. I would tell [[taron|King Taron]] the same, but I don’t think he would listen. I hear everything from this garden, you know. [[taron|Taron]] wants to use Azema’s power to conquer all of Ulos. Even so, it’s our job to serve him, trusting that the gods will see us through in the end.//

>//I pray you find him and help guide him to wisdom, for [[nalos|Nalos]], for [[ulos|Ulos]], and for all the many spokes of [[azema|Azema’s]] wheel."// -  Eye of Ulos (RPA-ADV4)

Donning [[taron_s_ring|Taron's Ring]] and reading her thoughts reveals that Mindle had another love long ago;

>//After finding the ancient [[gimnax|Queen Gimnax’s]] letters to [[gulpax|Gulpax the Crafter]], [[taron|Taron]] became afraid of the potential power of other [[planes|planes]]. Mindle, the gardener, assured him they were no more to be feared than the gods. Now, [[taron|Taron’s]] mind ruminates on that old dispute. He’s still convinced that the [[planes|planes]] must be mastered.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)

When reunited with [[zerith|Zerith]], Mindle is broken free from the the time stop affecting [[sabek|Sabek]] and is overcome with emotion;

>//You slip [[taron_s_ring|Taron’s ring]] on your finger and listen to the [[elf|Elven]] gardener’s thoughts, which still center on her lost love, [[zerith|Zerith]].//
>//[[zerith|Zerith]] steps near Mindle, and the bond between them grows stronger. The gardener is shaken loose from the bonds of time. In shock, Mindle drops her dagger and embraces [[zerith|Zerith]]. For a brief moment, the two are united again.//\\ 
>//“I don’t know how you found me, but now I know all things are possible,” Mindle tells her, before the bonds of time take hold of her once again.// - Silver Threads of Fate (LC1)
