Nathan is Dessa's close friend, and one of the men who escaped the coffle, and freed her from captivity in the cellar. As a young man, Nathan was enslaved on a plantation where his primary duty was to sexually pleasure the mistress of the house. Though these relations are secret, Nathan realizes the power of his masculinity, and the ways in which his appearance distinguishes him from others.
