Characters listed in no particular order. Characters may or may not have already appeared in the story. I will do my best to keep this guide from revealing important parts of the story. All names written the way they would be written in Dalth (and most English-speaking countries in the real world). In Loryh and Seoan, last names are spoken first (like in Japan). Use Ctrl-F (find) to search for a specific name.

Tarey Runa-Re/Tarey Runa-Se:
(Terry Roon-uhh-Ray/Say)
The main character. An emigrant girl from Reann-Oll who grew up with her father and brothers in Thurniam, Dalth. Blond hair, green eyes. She isn't extremely confident but will finish any task to the best of her ability. She is an adaptable young lady who puts a lot of value in family and friends. She believes in kindness and community. She is a loving, supportive, and protective friend. Tarey loves to dance the traditional dances of Reann-Oll and has interest in many other traditional customs.

These five girls are Aneli Tenloa's friends. They're basically her ladies-in-waiting. More on them when chapter two is completed. And don't say Zanite like it's Zan-ight. It's three syllables!
