The\u00a0About The Characters<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0post series focuses on the minor characters in\u00a0The Wall Of Night<\/strong><\/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<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Initially, the series focused exclusively on characters from\u00a0The Heir of Night<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, but now I\u2019m continuing on with minor characters from both\u00a0The Gathering Of The Lost<\/strong><\/em><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Daughter of Blood<\/strong><\/em><\/a>\u00a0\u2014 in alphabetical order, by name, of course!<\/p>\n

Currently, we\u2019re traversing the realm of \u201cL\u201d \u2013 but this week I have to make a slight back cast, because I managed to skip a couple of Daughter of Blood<\/em> characters: oh, no! An oversight for which I apologise, but which is easily rectified. So without further ado, or to-do, meet:<\/p>\n

Liankhara:<\/strong>\u00a0 a Daughter of Blood, fourth child of the Earl of Blood; also known as “spider.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet argument seemed too mild a term for the tempest that had broken the moment their father, Sardon, the Earl of Blood, announced that one of his daughters would marry the Earl of Night before the year was out. … The bride was not going to be Liankhara either, because the Earl\u2019s second daughter had served as a Blood spymaster since she was younger than Myr was now. Neither the Earl nor his council would countenance her loss from Blood\u2019s ranks, or the potential subversion of her loyalties, no matter how strategic the marriage offered.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
