The\u00a0About The Characters<\/a>\u00a0post series focuses on the minor characters in\u00a0The Wall Of Night<\/a>\u00a0series, in large part because:<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s the presence of the smaller characters that \u201cmakes\u201d a story, creating texture around the main points of view.\u201d

~ from my<\/em> Legend Award Finalist's Interview, 2013<\/pre>\n
Initially, the series focused exclusively on characters from\u00a0The Heir of Night<\/em><\/a>, but now I\u2019m continuing on with minor characters from both\u00a0The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Daughter of Blood<\/em><\/a> \u2014 in alphabetical order, of course!<\/p>\n

Ise:<\/strong> former governess and now duenna to Myrathis of Blood; originally from the House of the Rose<\/span><\/p>\n
Her sister was nowhere to be seen when they reached the training hall, and it was Mistress Ise…who waited beside Dab. The guard towered over the diminutive Rose woman, who had been governess and was now senior companion to Myr, exactly as she had been to her mother, Lady Mayaran\u00ed of the Rose. Myr could not see any training clothes, but she did catch the hand signal Dab flashed Taly. She had worked out enough of their hand codes to know it was a warning, although not the finer shadings that would have conveyed what the warning meant. But Ise\u2019s presence had already told her there was trouble, even if the old Rose woman\u2019s tone and expression were as noncommittal as Dab\u2019s lean countenance.<\/span> <\/em><\/p>\n
