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><\/span><\/p>\n

~ from my<\/em> Legend Award Finalist’s Interview, 2013<\/span><\/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

We\u2019re now well into what I like to call the \u201cfoothills of N\u201d \u2013 and the next few posts will all feature characters from Daughter of Blood<\/em><\/strong> alone.<\/p>\n

\u2026at that moment the wyr pack fell silent. \u201cEerie,\u201d Nalin said, matter of fact, after they had both listened to the ensuing quiet. The pack had cried for a night through until the next day\u2019s dusk, Kalan realized, exactly the length of time prescribed for the rites of Hurulth. He wondered whether he dared put that down to coincidence. \u201cFireside tales,\u201d the sergeant muttered, as if she were holding a similar, internal conversation, then took her leave.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
