The About The Characters<\/strong><\/a> post series focuses on the minor characters in The Wall Of Night<\/strong><\/a> series, 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<\/em><\/p>\n

Initially, the series focused exclusively on characters from The Heir of Night<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, but now I\u2019m continuing on with minor characters from both The Gathering Of The Lost<\/strong><\/em><\/a> and Daughter of Blood<\/strong><\/em><\/a> \u2014 in alphabetical order, by name, of course!<\/p>\n

\u201c[Asha] had been promoted from the Keep garrison after the Swarm attack five years before, one of the few guards who had managed to survive the ambush that killed the former Keep Commander and most of his troop.

\u201cNo wonder they needed nursemaiding,\u201d Lawr said, from his place by the fire. \u201cI don\u2019t think any of the old Lady\u2019s lot had even been outside their towers before.\u201d He paused, frowning. \u201cAnd there aren\u2019t enough of them to hold even half of this great pile, assuming they know how to do it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
