About The Characters: Meet The Minor Players In “The Wall Of Night” Series — Meet Murn
The About The Characters post series focuses on the minor characters in The Wall Of Night series, in large part 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 — in alphabetical order, by name, of course!
And I “think” the end may be nigh in terms of the letter “M”! 😉

Murn: secretary to Lord Nimor, the Sea House envoy
...the activity—and curses—around the foundered vehicle were not a repair attempt. Instead, the Sea Keepers were endeavoring to prevent the wagon tipping the rest of the way into the riverbed and smashing apart, while they removed its contents. These appeared to be necessities for the road, together with personal possessions, which were being ferried to waiting mules. …“The envoy’s state robes.” Murn, Nimor’s secretary, winked as they helped him with a particularly unwieldy sailbag…although Kalan thought the bag was too heavy for clothes.
