Quenel

 was the best friend of Madrigal.

Because she was against Madrigal's marriage to Osian, Madrigal's mother, Ro-Jedda confined her to a rehabilitation centre for Sorvix addicted to aspirin, where Quenel was put into a coma. Madrigal, Ng and Mr Colchester freed her. She tried to talk Madrigal out of the wedding. When she failed, she set out to travel the Earth, hitching a lift with a truck driver.
