The <\/span>About The Characters<\/span><\/b><\/a> post series focuses on the minor characters in <\/span>The Wall Of Night<\/span><\/b><\/a> series, in large part because:<\/span><\/p>\n

Carick thought she looked a lot like Ghiselaine, although her hair was fairer and the sleepy eyes blue. \u201cWe’re all longing to hear the tale firsthand, both your part, Maister Carick, and Ser Raven’s too, of course.\u201d She glanced at them from beneath downcast lashes, smiling when Carick flushed. He thought Raven looked amused, but his rescue came from another quarter.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
