Characters

Diala is the protagonist of this story. She has arrived in the village by accident and is new to this world.





Aurelia is an orphan who appears in Randall Village to play with its children. But the adults, for whatever reason, do not acknowledge her existence.





Hudra is Diala's next-door neighbor. She is a skilled hunter and acrobat, but she is not the most sociable person around.

Yolk is a messenger who works directly under the mayor of Randall Village. It is his job to watch over various refugee villagers, Diala included. He is notoriously mean-spirited.

Nathaniel is one of the village's guards. He lives with the Oodse family and is among the friendliest of all residents in town.

Fielle is the Randall Village librarian. She is reserved, but also knowledgeable about many worldly topics.





Al is the village's south guard. He lives with the Vall family and is not a very trusting fellow. He is, however, revered by the village Meire for his integrity.





Ernst runs the general store and is the only other human in Randall Village besides Diala. He is cold and quiet, but seems to know more than he ever lets on.
