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>\u00a0\u2014 in alphabetical order, of course!<\/p>\n

\u201cNo?\u201d Emuun was silent, his eyes half closed. Then they opened again. \u201cSpeaking of dead heralds, I see your adept, Jharin, has abandoned the last face he was wearing.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
The chill eyes considered him. \u201cAs it happens, the face abandoned him. He could not hold it, even through last night.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
Emuun whistled again. \u201cThere must be more to these couriers than I thought. A power to resist, perhaps, rather than to attack or coerce?\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Only the warrior hesitated, frowning as he studied the dark-haired man on the stairs, although he addressed Nirn. \u201cYou had two adepts when last we met: Jharin, here, and another one\u2014Amarn. <\/em>Where\u2019s he right now?\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cSheltering from the rain, no doubt.\u201d Nirn made a business of taking the chair opposite Aranraith\u2019s, his smile thin. \u201cHe went down to the port with orders for the ship\u2019s captain that brought us here. Ostensibly a coastal trader, but a smuggler on the side and useful, so we let him live.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
