About The Characters: Meet The Minor Players In “The Wall Of Night” Series — Meet Dain
In 2017, I resumed my “About the Characters” post series that focuses on the minor characters in The Wall Of Night series, because :
“I think it’s the presence of the smaller characters that “makes” a story, creating texture around the main points of view.”
~ from my Legend Award Finalist's Interview, 2013
Initially, the series focused exclusively on characters from The Heir of Night, but now I’m continuing on with minor characters from both The Gathering Of The Lost and Daughter of Blood simultaneously — in alphabetical order, of course!
(The quotes, together with the covers, indicate whether the character appears in both or only one of the books—although at present we’re having a run on single entries!)

“Arrows are my main concern,” Dain said, dropping his voice. “We won’t be able to retrieve ’em this time, not with their archers deployed. The caravan’s well equipped for the usual dangers of the road, but its reserves weren’t meant for this level of attack.”
