			==Writings==
			Nathan was a prodigious chronicler, and is known to have kept a journal throughout his entire life. He most likely made entries at least every day, often multiple times. Though no one has ever been able to determine exactly how, several dozen volumes of his journals, covering a good portion of his life at [[High Tower]], eventually made their way to the [[Library of Arindell]].

			Popular theory holds that when he fled High Tower, Nathan loaded three ships with his personal library and many artifacts of magic that he had collected, and eventually brought their contents to the library. However, no other volumes besides the journals have been positively identified as having belonged to Nathan or having been at High Tower.

			The positively-identified journals cover about four years in Nathan's early twenties, and sporadic periods throughout the rest of his life.

			Additionally, [[Hunter Jusenkyou]] believed he had discovered [[The Pendragon Journals\|journals]] dated from Nathan's childhood.

	The Searlins practiced polygamy, then outlawed in the city-state, and Nathan may have taken as many as 7 wives; all first, second, or third cousins of his own.

The Searlins practiced polygamy, then outlawed in the city-state, and Nathan may have taken as many as 7 wives; all first, second, or third cousins of his own. Surviving fragments of his diaries indicate that he only upheld this custom because it maintained his position within the family. He had several children by each of these marriages, and married them off prestigiously (one of his daughters was even married to [[Draco]]).

	Nathan would rule over [[Asysias]] from [[High Tower]] for nearly 30 years. From there, records of his later life become extremely spotty. It is known that he left High Tower before its fall, but how long is not well-established. Some claim he disappeared in secret with his close friend and confidant [[Gideon Rikart]], and that the Searlin family kept his disappearance a secret until the fall of High Tower. Others believe he may have died with the rest of the Searlins when the city was sacked and the tower taken. A volume of [[The Circle of Seven]] was found in his possessions.
