cockatiel forger asked K. Vale Nagle:

Is Hatzel going to go through major character development in Saberbeak?

K. Vale Nagle She is! One of the reasons Hatzel hasn't had the PoV spotlight much is because she hasn't needed to change since Ashen Weald. There's no one reason to let a character have significant PoV time, but often, it's an indication that the specific character is learning and growing.

With Hatzel, we'll get a glimpse in the prologue of the final days of Poisonmaw when she was a gryphlet, then we'll see what's finally made her leave her roost for the wider world. (She has an unexpected travelling companion, and there's a B and C plot that complement her journey, but those other PoVs are a little spoilery with Pridelord not yet released.)
