Pronunciation: [ˈnɛʃɛld]
Etymology: Nesheld the Sleepbringer was a minor god in a story I never really started writing involving some angels.
Other names: the Eighth Donkey
Nesheld is a Donkey with the ability to put others to sleep. He is the one who Earl Grey convinced to put the rest of the Donkeys to sleep. He feels betrayed by Kenili and humankinds in general (and Earl Grey and his Kern in particular) because he had not been aware that he would be trapped with the rest of his kind. However, he also has difficulty agreeing to what the Wielders want, and what the other Creatures are planning.
