CHARACTERS:
DISKARTE
Jester to the sovereign. They haven’t stepped beyond the high castle’s
bejeweled gates since they first arrived as a dirt-poor orphan from
the far-flung kingdom of Dilaw. Their hunger — whether
for a warm meal or for a better life — is insatiable.
QUEEN BAHAGHARI
Sovereign of the seven kingdoms. Born of a dalliance between
Pula’s king and Asul’s queen, she was raised by Lila’s royal
family. The potency and proficiency of her malicious
magic are unparalleled throughout history.
SANA
Former heir of Asul and current commander of the high castle’s knights.
Although not as skilled in swordsmanship as her predecessor Yugto,
she prevailed over her contemporaries from Pula’s military
academy owing chiefly to her sturdy shield spells.
YUGTO
Cook of the high castle’s kitchen. The queen discovered him in the slums
of Pula and decided to harness his potential by declaring him her
first commander. Since his retirement from the battlefield, he
has sweetened and softened, just like freshly-baked bread.
THE SEVEN HEIRS
Royal children from the seven kingdoms, one of whom will succeed the sovereign
upon her retirement or death. When heirs come of age, they relinquish
their right to the high castle’s throne in favor of younger heirs
but continue to serve as royal advisors to the queen.
