Characters
Arc One - Mirror DollTrea *Silver-blonde hair, dark sapphire blue eyes
*Queen's Mirror-Doll (similar to a
kagemusha)
*Doesn't remember any life prior to that, but has a distinct recollection of time in the past spent sleeping
*Mother of Amathana and Miven
*Believes herself to be a
ten'cki, or created being, and therefore not capable of any of the stronger emotions
*Appears to be favored by the Sleeping Ice Goddess, Solamida, and she is extremely devout in her belief of the Goddess
Kyan *Deep garnet ruby red hair, pale blue eyes
*Captain of the Shadow Guard
*Worked his way up in the ranks to this point, from the lowest of the lowliest positions, to be near Trea
*Has loved Trea afar for years and more recently in utter secret
*Many within the palace think he is unfit for the position because of his lack of magic ability - his profiency with weapons has silenced most naysayers
*Father of Amathana and Miven
Arc Two and Four - Eyes and Sleeper ArisenLenna *Golden hair, dark red eyes
*Member of Shadow Guard
*Considered the best
rendaina, or sorceress, of her generation
*During the Battle of the Palace, she ended up in a fight against a halfbreed (or
eiranda), namely Kyaren, during which both were cursed to be immortal and forget their past
*Raises a small boy, Amon, in around 500 BCE and follows his souls now as it is reborn
*Eventually (post
Gods and Other Creatures) holds the soul and power of Amaterasu now
Kyaren *Dark red hair, pale blue eyes (think
Siberian Husky's eyes)
*Kyan's half brother, born to his father and a
Dhauren (human) slave girl
*Participated in the Battle of the Palace to prove to his father (and Kyan, who didn't even know he existed) that he was every bit as good as his brother
*After being attacked by Lenna, whose attack is absorbed to form the curse, he forgets his past and becomes a thief
*By the time he and Lenna meet again (circa 500 BCE), he is one of the best thieves anywhere
*EXTREMELY limited magic but highly skilled with weapons
Arc Three - Say NothingAmathana *Pale blonde hair, dark blue eyes
*Seal of Spirit (Light)
*Daughter of Kyan and Trea, 11 years older than Miven
*Created the Elder Gods for the Battle of the Immortals, using the grave majority of her power
*Left part of her power was behind as Amaterasu
*Originally died when she was 33
*What was left of her power after Amaterasu was banished and several of the Elder Gods had died went into Lenna, including some of her personality
*Is determined to stop the cycle of death and rebirth for the Seals
*Enormously powerful and no one knows why
*Priestess of Solamida
Miven *Silver-blond hair, dark blue eyes
*Seal of Water
*Son of Kyan and Trea, 11 years younger than Amathana
*Originally died when he was 22, meaning by the Ancients' terms he was still a very young child
*Despite the age difference, he feels he should take care of his sister, not the other way around
*Kyan and Trea died when he was 3, so he was raised by Amathana in the temples

Songs
It has been a little while since I updated here, and yet it hasn't as well. I've been working on getting sections of the story typed and I've been using this blogger to do it -- I just haven't been posting it for people to see yet.
The subject of today's post is fairly simple. I'm starting to compile a list of songs that I associate with various characters, in the attempt to start to work on a soundtrack (at least a mental one for myself).
Trea:
* "
Back to the River", Xandria
* "
To Myself I Turned", Lacuna Coil
Kyan:
* "
And So You Disappear", Xandria
Lenna:* "
My Wings", Lacuna Coil
Kyaren:* "
The Authority Song", John Cougar Mellancamp
Amathana:* "
Swamped", Lacuna Coil
Miven:* "
Consign to Oblivion", Epica
Solamida:
* "
Ice Queen", Within Temptation
* "
She's Nirvana", Xandria
* "
Beltaine", Inkubus Sukkubus
Various:* "
